Relive Baltimore’s 36-35 win over Kansas City with a video that the Ravens released, centered around the reactions of fans

The Baltimore Ravens are known to have one of the most passionate fanbases in the NFL. People travel from all over to see the team play. Cheers of R-A-V-E-N-S can be heard in the stands at every home game while the team is on field.

Following Baltimore’s 36-35 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday night, the Ravens released a video showing just how passionate Baltimore fans truly were after the upset win. The video highlights the emotions of their fans throughout some of the biggest moments of the game.

Fans were thrilled to return to a packed M&T Bank Stadium for the first time since 2019. This three-minute video is only a small glimpse of what being a member of the Ravens Flock is like, with many of the emotions that come with it on full display.

Ravens QB Lamar Jackson ‘pumped’ to have fans back in stands at M&T Bank Stadium

Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson is happy to have fans back in the stands at M&T Bank Stadium

The Baltimore Ravens will have M&T Bank Stadium packed with fans for the first time in nearly two years on Sunday night against the Kansas City Chiefs. It’s a big game for fans to return to the stands, and they will certainly let their voices be heard.

Multiple Baltimore players and coaches have talked about how important it is to have fans in the stands and how the team feeds off of their energy. Ravens Quarterback Lamar Jackson spoke with the media on Wednesday and expressed how he felt about supporters being back in the stands.

There are multiple reasons why Jackson is “happy” for fans coming back,  one of them being that they give the Ravens a strong home field advantage. Baltimore is ranked as a top-two team when it comes to home field winning percentage over the last decade (75%). They only trail the New England Patriots (84.7%) over the course of that timeframe.

The Ravens have not had a packed house since 2019. The coronavirus pandemic put a hold on a lot of everyday life, including sports. Fans at M&T Bank Stadium will certainly be loud on Sunday night when the visiting Chiefs enter the Bank, and they will be cheering on their team as they look to be a deciding factor in the outcome of the game.

Ravens coach John Harbaugh predicts fans will be back at M&T Bank Stadium in 2021

After having fans attend one home game in 2020 due to COVID-19, Baltimore Ravens coach John Harbaugh envisions fans in the stands in 2021

Last year was easily one of the most unique seasons in NFL history. The COVID-19 pandemic nearly put a stop to the season taking place but even with the show going on, the coronavirus wreaked havoc, putting some of the league’s top players on the sidelines. It also meant most fans weren’t able to attend games, including everyone in Baltimore who was hungry to watch the Ravens defend their 14-2 record and AFC North crown from 2019.

With vaccines becoming available to the public and restrictions getting lifted in Maryland, Ravens coach John Harbaugh envisions fans returning to M&T Bank Stadium in 2021.

“That’s a no-brainer to me,” Harbaugh said. “Unless something crazy happens, and you can never say for sure in the world, but as far as COVID-19 is concerned, just look at what our scientists have done.”

On Friday, Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan lifted capacities on indoor and outdoor dining, retail businesses, fitness centers, and religious establishments from 25% to 50%. With restrictions dwindling, Harbaugh is ready for the world to go back to what it was before the pandemic.

“It’s time to get back to work. It’s time to get back to school. It’s time to get back to practice,” Harbaugh continued. It’s time to get back to life, period.”

Ravens fans should have a little more hope after the Baltimore Orioles announced on Friday they would be allowing fans to attend games this season at Camden Yards, at 25% capacity. With Camden Yards less than a mile from M&T Bank Stadium, it’s hard to believe fans won’t be allowed to attend Ravens home games when the season begins in September.
