Justin Houston, some outside lb, recorded 2.5 sacks as well as a 4th-quarter interceptions. He was the first Baltimore Ravens player ever to record three games straight with multiple sacks. Houston was indeed the team’s biggest contributor as the defence held on till four minutes remained in the contest before allowing a td.
Baltimore Ravens Getting Their 3rd Consecutive Victory:
Because the offence is so severely injured, the defence made a timely attempt. Mark Andrews, a Star Receiver defensive back who was out with shoulders and knee ailments, Rashod Bateman, the No. 1 wideout, who was out again for season with a severe foot injury, and the top 2 rbs were all absent from Lamar Jackson’s lineup. Even so, the Baltimore Ravens survived their third consecutive game and now lead the Bengals inside the AFC North by a game going into their bye week.
4th quarter interception by Houston. The Baltimore Ravens finally made the game-winning play this campaign with 8:24 remaining to secure their fourth victory in 5 games. Brent Urban, a defensive lineman, diverted Dalton’s pass, which Houston caught for an interceptions. Kenyan Drake’s 2nd td run for Baltimore shortly followed that turnover, giving the Ravens a lead of twenty seven to six. The longest continuous streak inside the NFL belongs to Baltimore Ravens, who forced a mistake in their 11th straight game. For the Ravens, Houston becomes the first player to still have 2.5 rushes and an intercepted pass in the same contest.
