The Ravens were dealt a gut punch on Sunday night by way of a painful, close loss to the Patriots at M&T Bank Field. Baltimore needs every win the team can get as the race for the AFC North heats up in the final weeks of the year, but couldn’t quite pull out the victory last night and New England won, 28-24.
Of the many reasons the Ravens lost, the most concerning was the early exit of Lamar Jackson. The superstar quarterback was forced out of the game in the first half due to a back injury. He was unable to return, leaving Tyler Huntley to pilot the offense with playoff hopes potentially on the line. It obviously didn’t work out and now the Ravens are two games behind the Steelers in the race for the divisional crown with their chances at the postseason growing slimmer by the day.
