Kyle Hamilton's first sack of the season (and third of his career) ends the Colts' promising opening drive.

Lamar Jackson and #Ravens get the ball for the first time at their 20-yard line.
Jackson's elusiveness and the benefit of a slick jersey has him evade Blackmon on the sack and turns it into a 1-yard gain. He's magic on the gridiron.

Ravens made it look far too easy.

12 plays, 80 yards, 6:31 TOP.
Jackson started the drive with an 11-yard rush and ends it with an 8-yard touchdown run. Mix that in with Gus Edwards hard runs and chip passes to Andrews, Flowers and Bateman and that's 7 on the board.
The past two opening drives for Todd Monken and the Ravens’ offense have been PERFECTION

Not even wet conditions could slow down the #Ravens offense on their first drive of the game. Lamar Jackson was slippery, took off when he needed to and pass protection was excellent. Shout out to Sam Mustipher and Morgan Moses for those great block on LJ's TD run!!!#RavensFlock

Lamar Jackson, who had the second-highest completion rate heading into the game, has been sharp today.
— Jamison Hensley (@jamisonhensley) September 24, 2023
Through 1st quarter, Jackson has yet to throw an incomplete pass. He's 7-of-7.
This is the second straight week that Jackson has started the game with 7 straight completions.
Ravens defense stiffens up and forces the Colts to punt.

Baltimore looking good on both sides of the ball so far.
Kyle Hamilton is everywhere. Dude's flying. What a game from Baltimore's safety so far. Two sacks and a tackle for loss already. Ravens defense forces another punt, this time on mid field. Great job

If David Ojabo can't return, the Ravens have Jadeveon Clowney, Tavius Robinson and Jeremiah Moon on the edge. They can also use an inside guy Malik Harrison, Del'Shawn Phillips and Trenton Simpson out there if need be.
