What is the Baltimore Ravens plan at offensive tackle?

One thing that was hard to ignore from the Baltimore Ravens' win over the Los Angeles Rams was the usage of offensive tackles. We noted before the game that this was a huge bounce-back spot and a chance for both tackles to get healthy after dealing with issues over the last few weeks. 

The Baltimore Ravens tried to platoon their tackles in week 14

However, neither of them played 100% of the snaps, although that appeared to be by design. At different times, we saw Patrick Mekari at left tackle and Daniel Faalele at right tackle. 

In total, Ronnie Stanley played 58 snaps, and Mekari played 14. Meanwhile, Morgan Moses played 64 snaps, and Faalele played eight. The Ravens may have wanted Falele to play more, but he allowed two pressures on his eight snaps. 

Either way, it is an interesting decision. You could argue this is the healthiest this duo has been since week one coming out of the bye and the easiest their matchup could get all year. Why not get them the work they need?

On the flip side, the Ravens may have thought that because Byron Young and Michael Hoecht are not the most feared rushers, the team could steal a few snaps of rest for their studs without risking any issues. Falele ruined that plan, but the Ravens also survived the game with both tackles healthy. 

The Ravens take on the Jacksonville Jaguars next week, and that means Josh Allen and Travon Walker. Either would be the best rusher on the Rams. So, getting both to this game fully ready to play is the biggest win. 

The question is whether or not the Ravens will keep platooning these two until the playoffs or if this was just a one-game thing. Perhaps they just pick their spots from here on to get the veterans some rest, knowing their playoff spot is nearly secured.
