Super Bowl champs to visit Ravens in 2010
By Bud L. Ellis
A visit by the Super Bowl champions highlights a challenging 2010 schedule for the Baltimore Ravens.
The Ravens face five games against playoff teams, including the defending champion New Orleans Saints.
The National Football League has released its list of home and away games. Dates will be announced later, but the Ravens know who they will play at home and on the road.
Along with the Saints, AFC North champion Cincinnati is the only other playoff team to visit Baltimore this season. The other home games include matchups with AFC North teams Pittsburgh and Cleveland, and games against Buffalo, Miami, Denver and Tampa Bay.
Along with the game at Cincinnati, there are two contests against playoff teams on the road: at AFC runner-up the New York Jets, and at AFC East champion New England. Other road contests include trips to Pittsburgh, Cleveland, Atlanta, Houston and Carolina.
According to last year’s opponents’ win percentage, Baltimore’s schedule ranks 12th-toughest in the league.
