The Baltimore Ravens are gearing up for the matchup of the weekend. In the divisional round of the playoff Baltimore will face the Buffalo Bills in a clash between quarterbacks Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen, the MVP frontrunners.
Weather is expected to be the coldest Jackson has ever experienced in his career, and if that weren’t enough, he figures to be with his top receiving target as well.
“It’s looking like no Zay Flowers (knee) for the (Ravens) this week,” reported NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport in an appearance on Good Morning Football on Friday.

Fans reacted after the report on social media.
“This Bills Ravens game is going to be amazing. Flowers out hurts for sure but they have Henry and Lamar. If they can contain Allen somehow, they have a real shot. I still say Bills win,” one fan wrote on Twitter.
“I hope not. See if u can have him for Conference finals instead. I’d not play him. Let him heal,” one fan added.
“That’s why you secure your division/conference by week 17,” one fan added, referencing how Flowers sustained the injury in a game the Ravens were forced to play due to not clinching the division earlier in the season.
It’ll be interesting to see how Jackson and the Ravens adapt.
