Prior to the start of the regular season, this matchup was likely circled by most of the fan base since it is going to be Minter’s first game against his previous coach and mentor. It was also expected that both of these teams would end up meeting as AFC contenders. However, that’s far from what reality had planned.
Entering Week 10, the Chargers and Ravens have a combined four wins between the two, and Baltimore owns all four of them. This is unfortunately one of the most underwhelming matchups in the primetime schedule and the only reason it wasn’t flexed already is that it takes before Week 12 when games are allowed to be moved.
