The 2019 Baltimore Ravens season was the franchise's 24th in the National Football League (NFL) and their 12th under head coach John Harbaugh. This was the team's first season under general manager Eric DeCosta following the retirement of Ozzie Newsome.

This season also marked the first year in which Terrell Suggs and Joe Flacco were not on the Ravens roster since 2002 and 2007, respectively, as Suggs left to join the Arizona Cardinals (later released and signed by the eventual Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs) and Flacco was traded to the Denver Broncos. [1]

The Ravens started the season as the only NFL team with three former Heisman Trophy winners on their roster: Lamar Jackson, Mark Ingram II, and Robert Griffin III. [2] The Ravens were also the only NFL team to score at least 20 points in each of their games during the season. [3] and the only team to score on more than half of their drives. [4] By Week 13, the Ravens improved to 10–2 for the first time in franchise history and extended their winning streak to eight games, also a franchise (regular season) record. After a win against the Buffalo Bills, the Ravens won their ninth consecutive game and improved on their 10–6 record from 2018. [5] That win also clinched a second straight playoff berth for the team. [6] Quarterback Lamar Jackson became only the second quarterback in NFL history to run for over 1,000 yards, and the following week, he broke Michael Vick's all-time single season quarterback rushing record during the game against the New York Jets.

By Week 15, the Ravens had scored more points (430) in a single season than any other team in franchise history. [7] In Week 15, they clinched their second straight AFC North title with a 42–21 victory over the Jets.

On December 17, the NFL announced the rosters of the 2020 Pro Bowl which included 12 Ravens, the most of any team in 2019. [8] On January 15, 2020, Orlando Brown Jr. was added to the Pro Bowl roster, which tied the 2007 Dallas Cowboys for the NFL record for most Pro Bowlers in a single season at 13. With a Week 16 win over the Cleveland Browns, the Ravens clinched the AFC #1 seed, gaining home-field advantage throughout the AFC playoffs, and broke 500 total points, both for the first time in franchise history. [9] The 28–10 Week 17 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers gave the Ravens their best record in franchise history, surpassing 2006. The Ravens finished the regular season with 3,296 rushing yards, the most by any team in NFL history during a season. [10] The Ravens became the first team in NFL history to average at least 200 passing yards and 200 rushing yards per game in the same season. [11] The Ravens outscored their opponents by 249 points, the highest point differential in the NFL in 2019. [12] [13] On January 3, 2020, the Associated Press released its picks for the 2019 All-Pro Team. [14] QB Lamar Jackson, OT Ronnie Stanley, CB Marlon Humphrey, CB Marcus Peters, and K Justin Tucker were named to the first team and G Marshal Yanda was named to the second team. The five Ravens selected to the first team were the most of any NFL team. [15]

In the playoffs, the Ravens were upset by the Tennessee Titans in the Divisional Round, 28–12. [16] Prior to their defeat, FiveThirtyEight had the Ravens as the favorite to win the Super Bowl since before Week 12. [17]

On a rain-soaked field, with Robert Griffin III at quarterback, the Ravens kept the ball on the ground for their first drive. The drive covered 40 yards, took 7 minutes off the clock and culminated with a 45-yard Justin Tucker field goal. After the Ravens defense forced a three-and-out, the Ravens offense, highlighted by a Gus Edwards 38-yard run, drove down the field again, this time settling for a Tucker 22-yard field goal. The Steelers took the lead early in the second quarter after a Benny Snell 4-yard touchdown run. The Ravens regained the lead, 9–7, with another Tucker field goal with 1:10 remaining in the half. The Ravens got the ball back with 54 seconds left in the half when Matthew Judon sacked Steelers quarterback Devlin Hodges forcing him to fumble. Justice Hill's 8-yard touchdown run capped a 23-yard drive for the Ravens, who ended the half with a 16–7 lead. After the teams exchanged field goals, the Ravens defense, late in the fourth quarter, stripped the ball from Steelers punter Jordan Berry and recovered it in the end zone for a touchdown.

With the win, the Ravens finished the season with a franchise best 14–2 record surpassing their 13–3 campaign in 2006. They also swept the Steelers for the first time since the 2015 season.

Game information

Titans running back Derrick Henry accounted for most of the Tennessee offense, accounting for 205 of their 300 total yards. Meanwhile, Baltimore racked up 530 yards, but their three turnovers and four failed fourth-down conversion attempts proved too much to overcome. As a result, Baltimore became the first number 1 seed in the playoffs to lose to the number 6 seed since the New England Patriots lost to the New York Jets in 2010. [54] [55]

On the Ravens' first drive of the game, Lamar Jackson threw a pass that bounced off the hands of Mark Andrews and was intercepted by safety Kevin Byard, who returned it 31 yards, with an unnecessary roughness penalty against Jackson for a horse-collar tackle adding another 15 yards and giving Tennessee a first down on the Ravens' 35-yard line. [56] Henry then carried the ball 4 times for 22 yards on an 8-play drive that ended with Ryan Tannehill's 12-yard touchdown pass to tight end Jonnu Smith, who made a leaping one-handed catch in the back of the end zone. After getting the ball back, Baltimore drove to a 4th-and-1 on their own 45-yard line. [55] Jackson attempted to convert with a quarterback sneak, but he was tackled by linebacker David Long Jr. for no gain on the last play of the first quarter. On the next play, Tannehill gave the team a 14–0 lead with a 45-yard touchdown pass to Kalif Raymond. [54] Following a punt from each team, Jackson completed a 30-yard pass [56] to Marquise Brown and a 16-yard pass to Andrews, setting up Justin Tucker's 49-yard field goal to make the score 14–3. Then after a Titans punt, Jackson completed a 26-yard pass to Seth Roberts, as well as two completions to Brown for gains of 16 yards and 38 yards on a 91-yard drive. Tucker finished it off with a 22-yard field goal as time expired in the half, making the score 14–6 at halftime.

Baltimore took the second half kickoff and drove to a 4th-and-1 on the Titans' 18-yard line. Jackson again tried to convert with a run, but was stopped for no gain by linebacker Harold Landry. Two plays later on 3rd and 1, Henry took a handoff through the middle and ran for a 66-yard gain, to the Ravens' 6-yard line. Then when faced with 3rd and goal from the 3-yard line, Henry took a direct snap out of wildcat formation and threw a jump pass to Corey Davis for a touchdown. [55] This gave Tennessee a 21–6 lead and made Henry the first running back to throw a touchdown pass in the postseason since Allen Rice in the 1987 season. [57] On the first play of the Ravens' next possession, defensive end Jurrell Casey forced a fumble while sacking Jackson, [56] which Jeffery Simmons recovered for Tennessee on the Baltimore 20-yard line. From there, the Titans drove to a 28–6 lead, scoring on a 6-play drive that ended with Tannehill's 1-yard touchdown run. [55] Baltimore responded with a drive to the Titans' 36-yard line, only to lose the ball again with a Jackson pass that was intercepted by safety Kenny Vaccaro. After forcing Tennessee to punt, the Ravens finally managed to score a touchdown, moving the ball 83 yards in 10 plays, the longest a 27-yard run by Jackson. Jackson finished the drive with a 15-yard touchdown pass to tight end Hayden Hurst, but his subsequent two-point conversion pass was incomplete, keeping the score at 28–12. Tennessee's defense then pinned down Baltimore for the rest of the game, forcing a turnover on downs on the Ravens' final two possessions.

Henry finished the game with 30 carries for 195 yards, [58] while also catching two passes for 7 yards and throwing a 3-yard touchdown pass. He became the first player to rush for over 180 yards twice in the same postseason. [59] Jackson completed 31 of 59 passes for 365 yards and a touchdown, with two interceptions, [58] while also rushing 20 times for 143 yards. [55] This made him the first quarterback to throw for 300 yards and rush for 100 yards in a playoff game. [54] [60] His top receiver was Brown, who caught seven passes for 126 yards.
