A Baltimore Ravens game preview announced a Week 1 matchup at Lucas Oil Stadium with a 1 p.m. kickoff and provided TV and radio coverage details.

The Ravens’ official Week 1 preview listed kickoff at 1 p.m. at Lucas Oil Stadium and named TV and radio outlets carrying the game, including WJZ Channel 13 (Baltimore), WUSA Channel 9 (Washington), the CBS broadcast team and Ravens radio (WBAL 1090 AM/101.5 FM; 98 Rock). The piece noted the all-time regular-season series lead belongs to the Colts, 9-6, with a 2-1 postseason edge, and recapped the teams’ last meeting in 2023, an Indianapolis 22-19 overtime win.

The preview emphasized several factors that could shape the matchup: Baltimore’s new offensive coordinator Declan Doyle installing a new offense, quarterback Lamar Jackson’s first start in that system, and head coach Jesse Minter making his debut as the Ravens’ head coach. It also pointed to Baltimore’s revamped interior offensive line and Indianapolis’ defensive front led by DeForest Buckner and Grover Stewart as key matchup elements.
