Joe Flacco can do battle with the best of them, but the Baltimore Ravens still have a major challenge ahead of them in 2015 when it comes to the opposing quarterbacks they’ll face in the regular season. Here’s our list of The 5 Toughest QBs The Baltimore Ravens Will Face In 2015.
5. Colin Kaepernick (October 18th)
The 49ers QB has been unjustly maligned the past 12 months after he was forced to be something he was not in the last year of Jim Harbaugh’s tenure in SF — a pocket quarterback. If new coach Jim Tomsula lets Kaepernick run with abandon once again, this’ll be a VERY tricky midseason road game.
4. Ben Roethlisberger (October 1st, December 27th)
You know Big Ben by now and what's he's capable of when he's in a groove. Sadly, he's only getting more accurate and more deadly in the pocket with age. Either way, the next two chapters of Flacco/Roethlisberger should at least be a blast to watch.
3. Philip Rivers (November 1st)
Contract situation aside, Rivers is the ultimate competitor and one of the more deadly pocket passers of the past two decades. With Melvin Gordon providing a youthful spark in the rushing game and a decoy when needed, Rivers will have plenty of time on three- and five-step drops to find his impressive array of receiving options from the tight ends on out.
2. Russell Wilson (October 11th)
Wilson’s legs are the X-Factor, but it’s his decision making and ability to draw defenses away from his targets with his eyes that makes him so deadly. There are very few who have been so clutch so young, and it’ll only get tougher with him leading a Seahawks team with a Super Bowl-sized chip on their shoulders.
1. Peyton Manning (December 28th)
Peyton Manning. Week 1. On the road. All of those are scary thoughts, but there’s also the fact that 2015 may very well be Manning's swansong. A motivated Manning is a scary Manning, and that’s just who the Ravens will be squaring off with to open up 2015.
