First Quarter


The game kicked off with both teams testing each other's defenses. The Texans quickly found their rhythm as C.J. Stroud led an impressive drive that culminated in a touchdown pass, setting the tone for what would be a high-scoring affair for Houston.


Second Quarter


As the second quarter unfolded, Stroud continued his aerial dominance by connecting on multiple passes that kept the chains moving. His precision passing resulted in two more touchdowns before halftime, giving Houston a comfortable lead. The Ravens struggled to respond effectively against Houston's defense which forced three interceptions during this period.


Third Quarter


After halftime adjustments, Baltimore attempted to mount a comeback but was consistently thwarted by Houston's defensive line led by Mario Edwards Jr., who recorded one sack and several key tackles for loss. Meanwhile, Ka'imi Fairbairn added crucial points through field goals from long range, maintaining pressure on Baltimore.


Fourth Quarter


In the final quarter, Nick Chubb broke through with an explosive rushing touchdown that sealed any hopes of a Ravens resurgence. Despite some late efforts from Lamar Jackson and his team to close the gap, it was too little too late as they were unable to penetrate further into Texan territory.


The post game analysis highlighted C.J. Stroud’s remarkable performance; he completed 23 out of 27 passes for 244 yards and four touchdowns without throwing an interception—demonstrating why he is considered one of the league’s rising stars.
