Baltimore Ravens: 3 Things That Went Wrong Vs. Patriots
By Joe Schiller
The Ravens dropped a 30-23 loss to the New England Patriots. Here are 3 things that went wrong from Monday night’s game
After a close loss to the Patriot’s last night, there are more negatives than positives to take away for the Baltimore Ravens.
Do not let the box score fool you, this game was all New England Patriots. The Patriots could have easily won the game by two or three touchdowns if it were not for mistakes in special teams. Tom Brady made the Raven’s top ranked defense look like a youth football team. The Patriots had no problem marching the ball down the field all night.
The Ravens offense came out flat and only managed to score three points in the first half. Special teams miscues put the team in a hole early and they were never able to dig themselves out of it. Their resilience to fight back and make it a one score game late in the 4th quarter is promising, but there still are many problems.
The Ravens now sit with a record of 7-6 and are a game out of the AFC North. Even with a loss they still control their own destiny to the playoffs. Their easiest playoff scenario is to win their last three games of the season.
