Ravens Visit Playoff-Bound Packers in Week 17 Showdown Without Star QBs
Baltimore and Green Bay face off without their star quarterbacks in a crucial playoff-impacting game marked by uncertainty and defensive strategies.
Baltimore and Green Bay will clash at Lambeau Field on Saturday night with significant playoff implications—but neither team's star quarterback will take the field.
The playoff-hopeful Ravens travel to face the playoff-bound Packers in an AFC vs. NFC matchup that carries weight for both franchises' postseason positioning. Yet the game will be stripped of its marquee talent.
Lamar Jackson (back injury) and Jordan Love (concussion) are both sidelined, forcing Tyler Huntley to lead Baltimore's offense and Malik Willis to command Green Bay's. Neither backup has extensive starting experience this season, adding uncertainty to an already high-stakes contest.
The loss of both starting signal-callers creates a unique dynamic. Two inconsistent offenses will face off against a pair of stout defenses—a recipe that could produce a defensive battle decided by field position and mistake avoidance rather than explosive plays.
Live coverage of Ravens vs. Packers begins Saturday at 6:45 p.m. ET.
