Ben Roethlisberger, the former Steelers quarterback, criticized the Baltimore Ravens on his podcast, stating they are 'falling apart' and suggested their Super Bowl window has closed. The Ravens, who missed the playoffs in 2025, made significant changes this offseason, including firing long-time head coach John Harbaugh. Roethlisberger expressed concern over player performance, specifically mentioning Derrick Henry and Lamar Jackson. However, experts caution that claiming the Ravens' window is closed might be premature, as Jackson is a two-time league MVP and the team has made substantial roster additions. The Ravens are set to begin the 2026 season under new head coach Jesse Minter, whose defense had previously shown success with Michigan in college football.
