On what to expect from the Raiders:
“We expect a very good football team. It’s a very physical football team, a hard-playing team, a tough team, lots of speed, a dominant defensive front four and front seven. [They have] an aggressive, fast secondary who can break on the ball and tackle very well. Just a really good defense. And then offensively, a big physical offensive line, a talented receiving corps, an elite receiving corps across the board – tight ends [and] wide receivers, of course. You know who their guys are, and they’re great players. We’ve played Gardner Minshew before, and he’s beaten us before. So, we have all the respect in the world for him as a quarterback. We know how talented and good he is. We’re looking forward to the challenge, and it will be quite a challenge.” – Ravens Head Coach John Harbaugh
On the team’s mindset entering an AFC matchup with the Raiders:
“Looking forward to this game. [You] know, led by a great coach in [Head Coach Antonio] Pierce. … And then the defense – I know those guys play well. Excited about the matchup. They pride themselves on physicality, and so do we, so it’ll be a good one. It’ll be the home opener, so [it’s a] great way to open up the season at home.” – Ravens inside linebacker Roquan Smith
