A pair of 4-2 teams, and potential Super Bowl contenders, are set to meet on "Monday Night Football" in Week 7.

The Ravens and Buccaneers will match up in southern Florida, both with momentum on their side. For Tampa Bay, that momentum comes from its offensive explosion in a 51-27 win over the Saints in Week 6. Behind a revitalized Baker Mayfield and a deep run game, the Buccaneers rank second in the league in points per game (29.7) entering Sunday of Week 7.

Mayfield has been building a first-half MVP case as he continues to sling the ball around in Tampa Bay's high-powered offense. Through six games, the former Heisman Trophy winner has 1,489 passing yards, 15 touchdowns and five interceptions on 70.9% completion, while also rushing for 136 yards and two scores. The 29-year-old has continued to excel with the Buccaneers after leading the team to a playoff win in 2023 and earning a contract extension in the offseason.

One of the few players ahead of Mayfield in the early MVP race, though, is Lamar Jackson. After taking home the award in 2023, Jackson has been just as dominant so far this season; he has 1,529 passing yards, 10 passing touchdowns and two interceptions with 403 rushing yards and two touchdowns on the ground.

The pairing between Jackson and RB Derrick Henry has also been just as dominant as many expected. The former Titans running back leads the NFL with his 704 rushing yards and eight rushing touchdowns, looking just as explosive in purple and black as he did in Tennessee. Baltimore also currently finds itself on a four-game win streak, emerging as a top threat to win the AFC North.

Both teams in this Monday night matchup boast talented offenses led by their star quarterbacks. Between Tampa Bay's air attack and Baltimore's ground attack, "Monday Night Football" could wind up being a high-scoring affair in Week 7.

Ravens vs.  Buccaneers live updates, highlights from Week 7 'Monday Night Football' matchup

All times ET

11:24 p.m. — That'll do it. The Buccaneers did their best to make a comeback effort late, but Baltimore put too many points on the board to overcome. The biggest concern moving forward for the Bucs, though, is the health of their top two receivers, Evans and Godwin. The Ravens, meanwhile, improve to 5-2.

11:17 p.m. — Chris Godwin goes down with an injury as the Buccaneers have kept their starters in late in this game. After Tampa Bay lost Mike Evans to a hamstring injury earlier, now Godwin goes down.

11:12 p.m. — The Ravens finally get the ball back and kill some clock with their backups in, but then punt it back to the Buccaneers. Tampa Bay is down 10 with 1:43 remaining. 

Ravens 41, Buccaneers 31

11:06 p.m. TOUCHDOWN — Rachaad White picks up another receiving score, his second of the game. Tampa Bay is doing everything it can to get back in the game late, now with 21 points in the fourth quarter.

11:02 p.m. — To at least make things more interesting, Tampa Bay recovers its onside kick. The Buccaneers get the ball right back with around three minutes remaining.

Ravens 41, Buccaneers 24

10:59 p.m. TOUCHDOWN — Tampa Bay puts together some chunk plays to drive down the field, and Bucky Irving punches it in from a yard out. With just minutes remaining, it's too late for a Buccaneers comeback, but they at least get more points on the board. The two-point attempt fails.

Ravens 41, Buccaneers 18

10:51 p.m. TOUCHDOWN — What a second half Henry has had, and what a game Lamar Jackson has had. Jackson finds his running back for a 13-yard receiving score, and the quarterback now has five passing touchdowns tonight, continuing to build his early MVP case.

10:45 p.m. — Derrick Henry finds another big hole, running for a 39-yard gain. He's up to 169 rushing yards tonight.

Ravens 34, Buccaneers 18

10:41 p.m. TOUCHDOWN — The Bucs finally get back on the board. Rachaad White takes an 11-yard reception into the end zone, and the two-point conversion is successful. Tampa Bay will need a lot more to get back in the game, but it put together a solid drive.

10:35 p.m. — The Buccaneers find some momentum: Zyon McCollum takes the ball away on a backward pass from Jackson to Flowers. McCollum initially took it to the end zone on a physical run, but he was ruled down by contact around Baltimore's 30-yard line.

End of third quarter: Ravens 34, Buccaneers 10

10:29 p.m. — Mayfield is taken down by Kyle Van Noy on 3rd & 17, and the Buccaneers' comeback hopes are slowly fading away. It's been all Ravens in the second half, and they have the ball as the third quarter comes to a close.

Ravens 34, Buccaneers 10

10:24 p.m. TOUCHDOWN— Another scoring drive for the Ravens. Tampa Bay hasn't scored since the first quarter, yet Jackson makes it a 34-0 Baltimore run with a four-yard touchdown pass to Andrews, the tight end's second of the night. Lamar Jackson has four touchdown passes.

10:22 p.m. — Any concerns about Derrick Henry's play tonight are long gone. He hadn't seen the ball much in the first half, but now, he breaks free for an 81-yard run to set up another trip to the red zone for Baltimore. 

10:17 p.m. — Odafe Oweh takes down Mayfield on third down, forcing Tampa Bay to punt. The Ravens have owned this game on both sides of the ball since the first quarter.

Ravens 27, Buccaneers 10

10:10 p.m. TOUCHDOWN — After the Ravens got the ball back, Jackson comes up with another big play to Bateman. This one's for a score too, as the two connect on a 49-yard touchdown pass. It's now 27 unanswered points for Baltimore.

10:04 p.m. — The Buccaneers picked up one first down on their drive, but they slowed down from there. Chase McLaughlin's 55-yard field goal is no good.

Ravens 20, Buccaneers 10

9:59 p.m. FIELD GOAL — Tucker sends it through the uprights from 52 yards out to put the Ravens up by 10.

9:56 p.m. — Mark Andrew toe-taps for an eight yard gain, but penalties and a fumble by Jackson as he's being taken down wind up pushing Baltimore back yet again. 

9:53 p.m. — The Ravens begin the second half with the ball, looking to expand on their lead.

Halftime: Ravens 17, Buccaneers 10

9:35 p.m. FIELD GOAL — The Ravens' chance at another touchdown was ruined by penalties, but Justin Tucker connects from 28 yards out to get them some more points before halftime. Mayfield takes a knee to send the game to the break.

9:33 p.m. — Multiple penalties have pushed back Baltimore to a 2nd & Goal from the 38-yard line.

9:26 p.m. — Time is ticking down in the first half, and the Ravens have moved into Buccaneers territory. Tampa Bay is called for roughing the passer, then Jackson finds Andrews for 20 yards to set up another 1st & Goal.

9:19 p.m. — Already backed up to a 3rd & 13, Mayfield throws his second interception of the night. And it's to the same player as the first one: Marlon Humphrey, who makes a nice grab to give Baltimore possession.

9:15 p.m. — Mike Evans is officially out for the rest of the game with a hamstring injury.

Ravens 14, Buccaneers 10

9:11 p.m. TOUCHDOWN — The Ravens got moved back due to a holding call, but it didn't matter. Jackson hits Justice Hill, who puts the burners on and scores from 18 yards out as Baltimore takes the lead.

9:10 p.m. — After scrambling to his right, Jackson connects with Rashod Bateman for a huge 59-yard play to set up 1st & Goal. 

9:05 p.m. — Another long drive from Tampa Bay ends much differently this time. Marlon Humphrey picks off Baker Mayfield in the end zone, giving the Ravens the ball with a chance to either knot the game up or take the lead in the second quarter.

9:03 p.m. — The Bucs, threatening another early score, have 1st & Goal thanks to a 15-yard catch from Chris Godwin. Mike Evans has gone back to the locker room.

8:59 p.m. — Baker Mayfield goes deep into the end zone for another potential Mike Evans touchdown, but the veteran can't hold onto the ball. Evans goes down in pain after the play.

8:56 p.m. — Tampa Bay's offense continues to cruise and rely on its running backs to move the ball. Sean Tucker got his first few carries and picked up 12 total yards, then on 3rd & 3, White gets a reception and goes for 13 yards.

Buccaneers 10, Ravens 7

8:50 p.m. TOUCHDOWN — The Ravens looked a lot better offensively on that drive. It took them just six plays and around two and a half minutes to drive down the field, and Lamar Jackson caps it with a nine-yard touchdown pass to Mark Andrews.

8:48 p.m. — Baltimore has started its second drive with three-straight first downs. Zay Flowers picked up one of them with 19 yards on the ground, but the wide receiver went to the sidelines with an apparent injury right after.

End of first quarter: Buccaneers 10, Ravens 0

8:40 p.m. FIELD GOAL — Baker Mayfield originally found Chris Godwin for another touchdown, but that was brought back for an offensive holding call. Instead, Tampa Bay tacks on three points, and the first quarter comes to an end soon after.

8:39 p.m. — Last week's star, Sean Tucker, hasn't seen the ball yet, but Tampa Bay's backfield has impressed so far. Irving picks up another 14 yards through the air, setting up 1st & Goal for the Buccaneers.

8:36 p.m. — Mayfield has the Buccaneers driving once again. He started with a tough 15-yard completion to Bucky Irving, then a roughing the passer call gives Tampa Bay another 15 yards.

8:30 p.m. — A huge sequence for the Buccaneers defense ends Baltimore's drive. Jackson is sacked on back-to-back plays, pushing the Ravens back a total of 17 yards. They'll punt.

8:27 p.m. — The Ravens are moving the ball well to start. Lamar Jackson picks up a first down with an 11-yard run, then he finds Zay Flowers for another 11-yard play.

Buccaneers 7, Ravens 0

8:22 p.m. TOUCHDOWN — Mike Evans gets things started with his 100th career touchdown catch, putting the Buccaneers up 7-0. It's a 25-yard strike from Mayfield to Evans.

8:21 p.m. — Tampa Bay converts a 4th & 1 with an 11-yard rush from Jalen McMillan, and they're moving deep into Ravens territory.

8:19 p.m. — Rachaad White picks up 18 yards through the air on 3rd & 3, moving the chains for the Bucs.

8:17 p.m. — Mayfield begins the game with a scramble for a six-yard gain.

8:15 p.m. — Tampa Bay receives the opening kick. Baker Mayfield and the Buccaneers offense take the field.

8:06 p.m. — It will be interesting to see which Buccaneers running back between Rachaad White, Bucky Irving and Sean Tucker steps up tonight in a tough matchup.

8:04 p.m — Almost kickoff time in Tampa Bay.

7:08 p.m. — Good news for Tampa Bay: RB Rachaad White is officially active for this game. However, head coach Todd Bowles mentioned earlier this week that the Buccaneers would take the "hot hand" approach at running back.
