Winners and losers from Ravens’ Week 5 win over the Falcons
Key Points:
- The Baltimore Ravens secured a significant win in Week 5 without Lamar Jackson, led by backup QB Tyler Huntley who threw for 201 yards, two touchdowns, and scored the game-winning touchdown on a quarterback sneak.
- Running back Derrick Henry was a key contributor, rushing for 102 yards on 24 carries and scoring both a touchdown reception and a two-point conversion to tie the game.
- The Ravens' offensive line dominated, enabling 208 rushing yards and showcasing rookie Vega Ioane’s strong interior play with zero pressures allowed.
- Defensively, safety Kyle Hamilton made a crucial game-sealing interception in overtime, while Malaki Starks and edge rushers Mike Green and Tavius Robinson also delivered impactful performances.
- The main negatives were tight end Mark Andrews’ multiple costly drops and fumbles, and the Ravens' continued struggles on third-down defense, allowing nine third-down conversions on 17 attempts.
