Everyone knows the Baltimore Ravens have an electrifying offense. With dual-threat quarterback, Lamar Jackson at the helm, and running back, Derrick Henry by his side, the Ravens offense has raced its way toward the NFL record books over the past two seasons.
However, it hasn’t been all rainbows and sunshine for Jackson, Henry and company so far this season. The Ravens fell to the Buffalo Bills in a Week 1 thriller (41-40), despite posting over 400 yards of total offense and scoring five touchdowns. The Ravens 2024 NFL season also came to an end at the hand of the Bills in last year’s divisional round of the playoffs.
After steamrolling the Cleveland Browns 41-17 on their way to a Week 2 victory, they were hoping to keep the good times rolling as they hosted the Detroit Lions on ‘Monday Night Football’ in Week 3. While the Ravens offense scored 30 points for a third straight week, they fell to the Lions 38-30, after a historic offensive performance by the Lions.
Ravens Set Unfortunate NFL Record Against Lions
The Ravens will look to turn things around after leaving Week 3 with a losing record (1-2). Although they sit below .500, the Ravens actually made NFL history on Monday night.
As per @ESPNInsights on X, the Ravens 111 points through their first three games of the season are the most by any team in NFL history with a losing record.
The Ravens currently lead the league in total points scored (111). The closest teams in total points scored are the Lions (103) and the undefeated Indianapolis Colts (103).
Even though the Ravens offense has looked stellar through three weeks, their chances at shedding their losing record won’t get any easier in Week 4. They’ll hit the road to take on the Kansas City Chiefs, who also sit at 1-2, this coming Sunday.
While the Ravens actually started last season 0-2 before turning their fortunes around, they have never started 1-3 in the Jackson-era.
They’ll look to tighten many aspects of their game up ahead of Week 4’s matchup with the Chiefs. The Ravens offensive-line allowed Jackson to get sacked seven times on Monday night. And the usually sure-handed, Henry fumbled for the third straight game.
Kickoff against the Chiefs is schedule for 4:25 p.m. EDT this coming Sunday inside GEHA Field at Arrowhead Stadium.
