Rams fend of Ravens 20-19

John Harbaugh and the Baltimore Ravens yearned a victory Sunday afternoon. The loss of Lamar Jackson has caused the team to fall into a four-game losing streak. Winning against Aaron Donald and the Rams would rely on the shoulders of a second-year quarterback.

Tyler Huntley has tried his best to fulfill the requirements of being a quarterback for the Ravens. His 6.3 yards per carrying this season has more than doubled his average for the previous season.

Huntley’s mobility was not enough to help the Ravens capture a win. In a game full of turnovers, the defense was the game-changer. Von Miller and Aaron Donald left their marks on the game’s outcome. Both Miller and Donald contributed to the sack frenzy including Von Miller’s crucial sack to win the game.

The 20-19 loss pushed Baltimore further into the pile of teams waiting for the next free space in the playoff picture. Their five-game losing streak came at the perfect time for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
