Team History
The Baltimore Ravens are the franchise that was formerly known as the Cleveland Browns. The football franchise moved in 1996 after the Browns ownership and the city were unable to reach a deal on a new stadium. The move cost Cleveland the original Brown’s franchise, which would later be replaced by another Browns team, but the Ravens lost their history.

About The Baltimore Ravens
Technically, the Ravens are an expansion franchise that entered the league in 1996 and inherited the old Brown’s players. All the Hall of Fame members associated with the Browns are now linked to the new Brown’s franchise.
The Ravens struggled for its first three years in the new city, but a new coach changed everything. Bill Billick took the franchise to its first playoff birth in 2000 and finished the turn around with a 34-7 victory over the New York Giants in Super Bowl XXXV. The Ravens would not repeat as champions but have fielded a strong team with a stingy defense ever since.
2008 The 2008 season finds a team with a new coach, Jim Harbaugh, and an aging quarterback, Steve McNair. The club has already addressed many of its defensive concerns in the free agent market by signing DE/LB Terrell Suggs, linebacker and special-teams standout Brendon Ayanbadejo, and linebacker Nick Griesen.
The Ravens will use the 2008 draft to try to find a quarterback, wide receiver, or offensive tackle to eventually replace aging veterans who do not have much longer in the league.
M&T Bank Stadium will play home to an interesting team that could surprise many with its youthful line and running back next season. Check out the schedule to see what game looks the most interesting and go to www.TicketSpecialits.com for the Baltimore Ravens tickets.
