With the Ravens set for preparation for a London matchup against the Titans, we’re looking at the studs and duds from the shocking 17-10 loss.
Stud--Zay Flowers
The Ravens continue to feed the ball to Zay Flowers. The rookie wide receiver saw 11 targets, catching five of them for 73 yards — although he did have two drops.
Dud-Ravens pass catchers
The Ravens had 6+ dropped passes on the day and QB Lamar Jackson could have had an explosive performance along with the win.
Stud --Lamar Jackson
Lamar Jackson went 22-of-38 for 236 yards, but fans will remember the dropped passes, lost fumble and late interception.
The quarterback played well at times and isn’t responsible for this loss.
Stud-Mark Andrews
The Ravens tight end had 6 catches for 65 yards on 10 targets.
Stud--Roquan Smith
Baltimore’s middle linebacker had another 11+ tackle game, and one pass defended.
Stud--Justin Madubuike
The talented defensive tackle logged five tackles, .05 sacks, and 1 QB hit.
Dud--Odell Beckham/Rashod Bateman
In their return to the lineup, Bateman and Beckham combined for 21 yards on three catches with seven total targets.
There’s still plenty of time left in the season, but the Ravens won’t win a Super Bowl without these two pass catchers contributing significantly.
