Can the Ravens' Dominant Home Performance Propel Them Further?

The Baltimore Ravens, with a 13-4 record, soared to a commanding 34-10 victory over the Houston Texans, who now stand at 10-7. The game was held at M&T Bank Stadium in front of an attendance that slightly exceeded the venue's capacity of 71,008.

The Ravens' offense was firing on all cylinders as they amassed a total of 352 yards. The ground game proved particularly effective with the team churning out 229 rushing yards from 42 attempts, averaging over five yards per carry. This relentless rushing attack resulted in two touchdowns and twelve first downs. The longest rush broke for an impressive 23 yards and one of their touchdowns matched this distance.


Through the air, Baltimore's quarterback posted a stellar passer rating of 121.8 by completing sixteen out of twenty-two passes for a total of 152 passing yards and two touchdowns; his longest completion went for twenty-one yards. The receiving corps contributed significantly to this effort by securing sixteen receptions on twenty-one targets and achieving ten first downs.


Special teams also played a pivotal role in Baltimore's success. Their kicker was perfect on the day, converting both field goal attempts including one from fifty-three yards out – contributing to his perfect field goal percentage for the game.


Defensively, while not recording any sacks or interceptions against Houston's offense, the Ravens did manage to apply pressure with three hurries and five quarterback hits while also forcing three punts to end drives early.


Looking ahead after this comprehensive performance at home, fans can anticipate watching their team take on the Kansas City Chiefs at M&T Bank Stadium once again. This upcoming encounter is scheduled for January 28th at an internationally coordinated time equivalent to eight PM Eastern Time (ET). Fans eager to catch every play can tune into CBS where they will be able to witness all live action unfold from Baltimore.
