Tomorrow marks the 16th anniversary of the Ravens’ first playoff game.
After everything that happened with the Colts, and a 24-39-1 record in the franchise’s first four seasons, the 2000 Ravens returned playoff football to Baltimore fans for the first time since 1977.
It took 16 years from when the Colts left for Indianapolis to witness a winning football team again. And now, 16 years later, we look back at the first playoff game in franchise history.
The 2000 Ravens personified toughness. Not only were they led by their legendary defense, but they endured more than a few challenges and criticisms along the way.
