A Ravens and Orioles reception played out perfectly at Ripken Stadium.

The Ravens on Monday used their open roster spot to sign former Cincinnati Bengals running back Bernard Scott, who will presumably start out as their third back behind Ray Rice and Bernard Pierce. So what are the Ravens getting in Scott, besides backfield depth?

Looking at which Baltimore Ravens got a lot of playing time and which Ravens rode the pine in the first seven games of the 2013 season. Only five players, including middle linebacker Daryl Smith, have played every snap.

Because of injuries and other roster decisions, the Ravens' special teams have featured a revolving door of players, many thrust into roles that they've never occupied.

Each week, Baltimore Sun reporter Aaron Wilson will look back at the Ravens' previous game.

The Ravens entered their bye week in unfamiliar territory under Harbaugh. They are 3-4, the latest that they've had a losing record in Harbaugh's six seasons at the helm. They are also two games behind the first-place Cincinnati Bengals in the AFC North.

After being sidelined for more than 10 months with a spinal cord injury, Ravens weak-side linebacker Jameel McClain returned to the field Sunday. And he didn't just play. McClain started and played a major role in the 19-16 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Joe Flacco failed to hit Jacoby Jones in stride during the third quarter of the Ravens' 19-16 loss Sunday at Heinz Field.

There was a time when Heinz Field was the Ravens' house of horrors, but those days are over, and the Ravens clearly relish the challenge of going there and facing the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Roethlisberger, often hobbled by some injury or another, is healthy and back under center heading into Sunday's game at Heinz Field. Even though they haven't faced him since 2011, the Ravens know what Roethlisberger is capable of, especially on his home turf, and the Steelers believe having Roethlisberger could make all the difference this time around.

In Sunday's 19-17 loss to the Green Bay Packers, the Ravens once again created little running room for their running backs, a troubling trend that could prompt the coaching staff to make schematic changes.

Each week, Baltimore Sun reporters Aaron Wilson and Matt Vensel will look back at the Ravens' previous game and that of their next opponent.

Jones displayed speed and elusiveness during the Ravens' 19-17 loss to the Green Bay Packers on Sunday. He caught an 11-yard touchdown pass and recorded a 31-yard reception on the other pass thrown to him.

One positive development from Sunday's 19-17 loss to the Green Bay Packers was the return of injured wide receiver Jacoby Jones, who returned kickoffs and made an 11-yard touchdown reception. The Ravens limited his usage, though. Jones played just 17 offensive snaps and six snaps on special teams. More on that and other snap count observations.

Six games into the season, the Baltimore Ravens are a .500 team with about 500 unanswered questions on offense. Their saving grace has been the revamped defense, which has played very well since Peyton Manning and the Denver Broncos made it rain touchdowns in the season opener. The Green Bay Packers put up big numbers Sunday, but the Ravens remained in the game because the defense held firm.

The Green Bay Packers did a commendable job of containing the Ravens' most dangerous offensive weapon, wide receiver Torrey Smith.

Running back Ray Rice could hardly believe what happened Sunday as another patented failure of the Ravens' running game unfolded.

With the loss, Ravens head to Pittsburgh for matchup with Steelers at 3-3

The Fox telecast of the Baltimore Ravens¿ loss Sunday was far from perfect, but what a vast improvement over any coverage provided this season by CBS Sports.

The Ravens scratched veteran offensive Bryant McKinnie after replacing him this week with Eugene Monroe the new starting left tackle.

Although nose tackle Haloti Ngata is listed as questionable on the injury report, Harbaugh said the Pro Bowl defensive lineman is set to play Sunday.

Eugene Monroe is set to make his starting debut at left offensive tackle for the Ravens on Sunday against the Green Bay Packers at M&T Bank Stadium.

Just five days ago, the Ravens were left with only three healthy wide receivers for their game against the Miami Dolphins. When they put out their inactive list about 90 minutes before Sunday's game against the Green Bay Packers, they figure to have significantly tougher decisions to make.

The Ravens are as healthy as they've been all season, but they have one big absence: Pro Bowl nose tackle Haloti Ngata who has been held out of practice two days in a row because of a hip injury.

However, the Ravens still look like a team trying to find some consistency and in search of an offensive identity. With the Houston Texans struggling and the Dolphins still trying to establish themselves as contenders, the Ravens also are a without a signature win, albeit at a very early juncture of the season.
