The Baltimore Ravens will go on the road in Week 7 to take on the suffering New York Jets. Today's big game has a scheduled start time of 1 p.m. ET and takes place from MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey. The game can be watched on TV on the CBS network or online through live stream via the link below.
The Baltimore Ravens will know how important gaining a win today is. They are on 3-3 and lie second in the AFC North behind the table topping Pittsburgh Steelers, who are on 4-2.
They face a team that is struggling badly this season, and the Jets are bottom on the AFC East with just one win so far this season coming into Week 7. At 1-5 the season is already likely gone for the Jets.
The Ravens will see this as a game they simply must win of they are to continue to apply pressure to the Steelers. So far Baltimore will be reasonably happy with how things have gone this season, and they can see they have the potential to go far, however, they must cut out the inconsistency if they are to maintain a serious push for the postseason.
Earlier in Week 7, NFL Thursday Night Football saw the Green Bay Packers claim what in the end was an easy win over the Chicago Bears.
Even though the 26-10 scoreline would indicate that the Packers had it all their own way, that was not the case, and through the opening three quarters just field goal separated the teams.
However, when things came to the crunch, the hapless Bears fell down again and disappointed. With just three points between the teams heading into the fourth quarter, Chicago fans may have been hoping their team could sneak the win at the end. But 13 unanswered points for the Packers saw Green Bay run out victors to move to 4-2.
That result condemned the Bears to their sixth defeat of the season so far as they dropped down further to 1-6, and this is already turning into a long and painful season for them.
Aaron Rodgers threw for 326 yards and three touchdowns. His 39 of 56 set a franchise record for completions in a single game.
The Bears meanwhile lost quarterback Brian Hoyer to a broken left arm in the second quarter, and so he joins the injured list with Jay Cutler, leaving Chicago to turn to third stringer Matt Barkley, who ended 6 of 15 for 81 yards and two interceptions.
Bears coach John Fox said, "Well, when you lose your starting quarterback it can be disruptive. It's not an excuse, it's just a reality,"
