Sapp: Ravens' low crime rate fuels Super Bowl hopes
10 Sep
Summary
- Warren Sapp predicts Ravens will win the Super Bowl.
- Sapp cites Baltimore's low single-digit murder rate.
- Ravens face Colts on September 13, 2026, in Week 1.
Former NFL defensive tackle Warren Sapp has boldly predicted that the Baltimore Ravens will win the Super Bowl in the upcoming 2026 season. Sapp, a Super Bowl XXXVII champion, shared his unconventional take on the "Unbuttoned" podcast.
Sapp's rationale for his prediction is twofold. He pointed to a historically low single-digit murder rate in Baltimore, suggesting a positive environmental factor. Additionally, he noted that Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson has maintained a low profile throughout the offseason.
Sapp also expressed skepticism about Josh Allen being named the NFL MVP last season. He believes Jackson and the Ravens have a strong chance to contend for the championship.
The Ravens are scheduled to kick off their 2026 regular season on Sunday, September 13, 2026. Their Week 1 opponent will be the Indianapolis Colts at Lucas Oil Stadium.
