The Ravens have enjoyed success against the Buccaneers, winning five straight encounters and leading the all-time series 5-2. Their last matchup occurred in 2022, when Baltimore claimed a 27-22 victory in Tampa Bay. In that game, Lamar Jackson outperformed Tom Brady in what would be Brady's final season, completing 27 of 38 passes for 238 yards and two touchdowns, leading several long scoring drives in the second half.
Stakes
Both teams are eager to maintain their positions at the top of their respective divisions. As they head into Week 7, the Pittsburgh Steelers are tied with Baltimore in the AFC North, while the Buccaneers are sharing the lead in the NFC South with the Atlanta Falcons. Jackson has a chance to bolster his impressive career record against the NFC as a starter (22-1). Additionally, Mark Andrews is just one touchdown away from breaking the franchise record, currently tied with Todd Heap at 41 touchdowns.
