The Ravens amassed 506 total yards, showcasing an effective offensive strategy under new coordinator Declan Doyle. However, injuries to key wide receivers Zay Flowers and Ja’Kobi Lane raised concerns for Baltimore moving forward.

What they're saying
"

Lamar Jackson dropped back on third-and-16, and as the pocket collapsed, he somehow ducked between a couple of pass rushers before finding a running lane and taking off for the first down. From the start, it was clear that the engine of Baltimore's offense was back. Jackson threw for 324 yards and a touchdown and also ran for a score, looking as spry as Baltimore had hoped after an injury-plagued 2025.
