Projecting the Ravens’ starting offense for Week 1 vs. Texans

Ravens USA TODAY Sports Geoff Burke John Simpson Odell Beckham Jr Todd Monken Zay Flowers

The Baltimore Ravens whittled their roster down to 53 players last week and are now focused on their Week 1 matchup at home against the Houston Texans on Sunday, Sept. 10.

The Ravens have changed their roster since cutdown day, but the offense looks explosive after adding Odell Beckham Jr., Zay Flowers (rookie), and getting running back J.K. Dobbin back from injury.

With preparation for the season opener set to get underway, we’re projecting the Ravens starting offense under new offensive coordinator Todd Monken.

Note: The projection includes a WR3 and TE2 for three-receiver sets and 12 personnel.

Monken used that formation over 65% of the time at Georgia, and that’ll be par for the course in Baltimore as he looks to open up a stagnate offense.
