The Ravens had a good reason for practicing inside all week at their indoor practice facility at team headquarters.

"The fields are frozen," coach John Harbaugh said.

The Ravens' outdoor practice fields have been impacted by the cold weather this week in the Baltimore region. Temperatures have dipped into the high 20s at night in Owings Mills, the site of the Ravens' training facility.

The Ravens will play outdoors Saturday night against the Pittsburgh Steelers at Heinz Field in an AFC wild-card playoff game. The forecast for kickoff is 40 degrees with 100 percent chance of rain and possibly freezing rain.
