The Baltimore Ravens had a tough 2025 season. Many fans are hoping for a big turnaround in 2026. One big reason for this hope is Lamar Jackson, their star quarterback.

Lamar Jackson: The Key to Success

  • Missed games in 2025 due to injury
  • Performance dropped when he was not fully healthy
  • 2024 Season Highlights:
  • Threw for 4,172 yards
  • 41 touchdowns
  • Only 4 interceptions

When Lamar Jackson is healthy, he is a game-changer. The Ravens need him to stay healthy in 2026.

Defense Needs Improvement

The Ravens' defense ranked 24th in total defense in 2025. They struggled to:

  • Stop the pass
  • Get pressure on the quarterback

The team hired new coaches to fix these problems:

  • Jesse Minter: Helped the Chargers' defense rank 5th in the NFL in 2025
  • Anthony Weaver: New defensive coordinator

Looking Ahead to 2026

With a healthy Lamar Jackson and a stronger defense, the Ravens could be a top team in 2026. They have talented players like:

  • Derrick Henry
  • Zay Flowers

If everything comes together, the Ravens could have a successful season. Fans are excited to see what happens next year.
