### **Ravens Are No. 2 in Watchability Rankings**
[ESPN’s Ben Solak](https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/46029185/2025-nfl-season-most-watchable-teams-ranking-commanders-ravens-lions) ranked all 32 teams based on watchability, using the criteria of big plays, close games, star players, and "cool scheme stuff."
The Ravens landed at No. 2.
"If you don't like Derrick Henry standing next to Lamar Jackson in the same backfield, you don't like the same football I like," Solak wrote. "That's about as scary as a backfield has ever been, full stop. And it isn't just that they're good. It's the _way_ that they're good. Henry's breakaway runs are like avalanches, seen long before they hit, gaining speed and power as they grow. Jackson's are like lightning – sudden, unpredictable and spectacular. And that's just the running ability. Let's not forget that the two-time MVP had 41 passing touchdowns last season and led all quarterbacks in explosive pass rate. Fun stuff.
"The Ravens are also famously capable of a fourth-quarter collapse, regularly producing some of the more preposterous win probability charts – bad for the team, good for watchability."
The Washington Commanders, who host the Ravens in Saturday's preseason finale, took the No. 1 spot in Solak's rankings because of the number of close games they played last season and rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels' electric play and flair for the dramatic.
