Special Teams: B
Jacoby Jones had a nice 45 yard punt return that set up the Ravens’ first touchdown in the second half. Jones also added 122 yards on four kickoff returns (30.5 avg) that gave the offense good field position. Sadly, they didn’t do anything with it.
Justin Tucker essentially took the day off, kicking one extra point and attempting zero field goals. Sam Koch, on the other hand, kept his leg warm by kicking 8 punts for 403 yards (50.4 avg).
The coverage team did a solid job, allowing a mere 24 yards on 4 punt returns (6.0 avg). All in all, another good day for special teams.
