Historical Context
The Bills-Ravens series is unusually balanced in its overall results. Through the September 2025 meeting, the teams had split 14 total games, 7-7, including two postseason contests. Buffalo’s two postseason victories came in the 2021 divisional playoffs and the January 2025 AFC Divisional Round.
The recent series has also demonstrated contrasting offensive approaches:
- Baltimore produced 238 rushing yards against Buffalo in September 2025.
- Buffalo produced 389 net passing yards.
- Buffalo ran 78 offensive plays compared with Baltimore’s 50.
- Baltimore averaged 8.6 yards per offensive play, while Buffalo averaged 6.4.
- Despite Baltimore’s 238-108 rushing advantage, Buffalo won because of its passing volume, possession time and fourth-quarter scoring.
The September 2024 matchup showed the opposite statistical pattern. Baltimore generated 427 total yards to Buffalo’s 236 and won 35-10. Henry’s 199 rushing yards were a major component of that offensive output.
