Team History

After an 11-year absence, pro football returned to Baltimore in 1996. The Ravens, a team that formerly played in Cleveland, moved into Baltimore Memorial Stadium and began play in the 1996 season. "This is a new beginning and a new era for us," Ravens owner Art Modell told fans at the team's naming ceremony. (The name Ravens was inspired by the poetry of former Baltimore resident Edgar Allan Poe.)

Although the team does indeed bring "a new era" of pro football to Baltimore, the Ravens could avoid many of the "growing pains" a new team typically endures. After all, they're not really a new team. Many of the team's veterans played together in Cleveland.

Also returning to Baltimore in 1996 is the Ravens' coach Ted Marchibroda, who led the Baltimore Colts from 1975 to 1979. In his first year with the Colts, Marchibroda took a club that had posted a 2-12 mark in 1974 and engineered a 10-4 record in 1975. At that time, it was the greatest one season turnaround in NF. It also marked the first time in league history that a team went from last to first in one season.
