ExtremeRavens Posted Monday at 10:27 PM Posted Monday at 10:27 PM The Ravens’ Dec. 21 game against the New England Patriots at M&T Bank Stadium has been moved from 1 p.m. to “Sunday Night Football” on NBC, it was announced on Monday evening. It takes the place of the Cincinnati Bengals’ game at the Miami Dolphins, which will now be played that Sunday at 1 p.m. on CBS. With the Bengals dropping to 4-9 after Sunday’s loss to the Buffalo Bills and needing to run the table to even have a chance to make the playoffs, the Ravens-Patriots game is much more compelling, with two-time NFL Most Valuable Player and quarterback Lamar Jackson going against MVP candidate Drake Maye in a matchup between one team just hoping to get into the playoffs and the other vying for the top seed in the conference. The game will be the first between the two rivals who at one time took turns vying for conference supremacy. They have met just four times since 2016. Each team has won twice, with the Ravens winning their most recent contest, 37-26, at Gillette Stadium in September 2022. The Ravens also won their most recent meeting in Baltimore, 37-20, in 2019. The Ravens (6-7), who will play in Cincinnati on Sunday, are looking to bounce back after a loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday that dropped them a game behind the AFC North-leading Steelers. The Patriots (11-2) are coming off a win over the New York Giants last week and are tied for the best record in the AFC. Have a news tip?
