Performance Trends

2026 Game: Baltimore’s Efficiency vs Pittsburgh’s Volume

The January 4, 2026 game produced an unusual statistical split. Baltimore averaged 7.5 yards per offensive play, compared with Pittsburgh’s 5.3, and gained 137 rushing yards to Pittsburgh’s 100. Yet the Steelers ran 73 offensive plays, compared with Baltimore’s 48.

That difference helped Pittsburgh generate 24 first downs against Baltimore’s 12 and hold the ball for 34:11.

Passing Trend

Jackson’s 238 passing yards came on only 18 attempts, producing 13.2 passing yards per attempt before sack adjustments. His three touchdown passes produced a 121.5 passer rating. Rodgers had considerably more volume, completing 31 of 47 attempts for 294 yards.

Explosive Plays

Baltimore’s passing attack was heavily dependent on explosive plays:

  • Devontez Walker: 38-yard touchdown.
  • Zay Flowers: 50-yard touchdown.
  • Zay Flowers: 64-yard touchdown.

Flowers averaged 34.5 yards per reception and accounted for 138 of Baltimore’s 238 passing yards.

Historical Context

The Ravens-Steelers series has been unusually balanced compared with many NFL divisional rivalries. Pittsburgh’s 35–25 advantage represents a 10-game difference across 60 meetings, rather than a dominant historical imbalance.

The scoring margin is similarly narrow. Pittsburgh has scored 1,199 points to Baltimore’s 1,172, a difference of only 27 points across 60 games.

Recent results have followed the same pattern. The six most recent meetings listed by Pro Football Reference include four Pittsburgh wins and two Baltimore wins, with several games decided by one possession.

The January 2026 result was particularly representative of the rivalry: Baltimore scored 24 points and led 24–20 with less than a minute remaining, but Pittsburgh produced the decisive touchdown on its final scoring drive.
