The 2005 Baltimore Ravens season was the team's tenth season in the National Football League (NFL). They were unable to improve upon their previous output of 9–7, instead going 6–10 and missing the playoffs for the second straight season. The Ravens played on Christmas Day for the first time, defeating the Minnesota Vikings in Baltimore. As of 2021, Baltimore’s 48–3 win over the Green Bay Packers stands as the biggest blowout in Monday Night Football history.
