- The Ravens offensive line has an especially weighty task this week -- blocking the Green Bay Packers' hefty defensive line.
- The three-time Pro Bowl selection has lost two fumbles this season, though, with the latest coming during a 26-23 win over the Miami Dolphins when 6 foot 4, 355-pound defensive lineman Paul Soliai shook the football loose and former Ravens linebacker Dannell Ellerbe pounced on the football.
- Ravens left tackle Bryant McKinnie's pass-blocking breakdowns against the Miami Dolphins were part of a chaotic game for the Ravens' offensive line that eventually overcame miscues and back spasms to left guard Kelechi Osemele in a 26-23 win at Sun Life Stadium.
- Nine Ravens are questionable for Sunday's game against the Miami Dolphins, including four wide receivers and starting cornerback Lardarius Webb.

- The Ravens knew that Gino Gradkowski would experience some growing pains as the replacement for six-time Pro Bowl center Matt Birk after his retirement.
- Ravens kick returner and wide receiver Jacoby Jones' return to practice was unsurprisingly on a limited basis Wednesday.

- Four players have withdrawn from game since last Sunday's loss to New England
