19/11/2024 Raymond 0

The Ravens’ loss to Pittsburgh on Sunday was a culmination of familiar issues that have plagued them all season. Penalties, turnovers, and breakdowns in coverage overshadowed the team’s potential and dropped them to the sixth seed in the AFC standings. Even Justin Tucker, the league’s most reliable kicker, showed signs of a troubling slump. While the division race isn’t over, Baltimore’s path forward hinges on their ability to eliminate self-inflicted wounds. With crucial games ahead, including a rematch with the Steelers in Week 16, John Harbaugh must find a way to tighten the ship—or risk seeing the season slip away.

Ravens QB Lamar Jackson’s Final Hurdle in the Regular Season: Defeating the Steelers

15/11/2024 Raymond 0

Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson has faced a persistent challenge in his career—defeating the Pittsburgh Steelers. Despite his impressive achievements, including two NFL MVP awards and the potential for a third, Pittsburgh has continually troubled him. Since becoming Baltimore’s full-time starter in 2019, Jackson has a disappointing 1-3 record against the Steelers, with his lowest quarterback rating (66.8) coming against them. In their last meeting, Jackson completed 22 of 38 passes for 236 yards but was intercepted once and sacked four times, including a strip-sack in the final minute that sealed the Steelers’ win.

Jackson has had some bad luck in these matchups, missing several games due to injuries and rest, but he’s now determined to break the streak. This season, he’s been exceptional, leading the league in touchdowns and passer rating while the Ravens’ offense has been explosive. With first place in the AFC North on the line this Sunday, Jackson is looking forward to another chance at the Steelers, confident that this season’s Ravens team is equipped to overcome the challenge that has plagued him for years.
