Ravens @ Saints MNF Game Day Thread

SmashMouth · 11-07-2022, 02:51 PM

We have said many times, but although the New Orleans Saints have been in the NFL for 55 years, when they play an AFC team there isn’t a whole lot of history.

In this case, the two teams have played only seven times since their first meeting on Sept. 29, 1996. (Although one has to remember the Ravens previously were the Cleveland Browns and established an entire new identity and gave the Browns history back to the team when they returned to the NFL.)

As a matter of fact, this is only the third time the Ravens will play in the Dome, but one of the greatest games in franchise history came here, as the team won Super Bowl XLVII over the San Francisco 49ers on Feb. 3, 2013 – the night the lights went out in New Orleans.

Unlike their first two nonconference games, the Saints (3-5) finally will face a team with a winning record, as the Ravens come in at 5-3.
