Zay Flowers gave the Ravens an early spark and their best individual offensive performance Sunday. It was not enough to overcome everything that followed. Flowers caught eight passes for 137 yards and a touchdown on 11 targets in Baltimore’s 35-13 loss to Cincinnati.
His 48-yard touchdown began with a short pass on third-and-nine. Teammate blocks created space, and Flowers added the acceleration to turn the opportunity into the game’s first score. He entered halftime with six catches for 120 yards, helping Huntley and the offense dominate possession.

The second-half contrast was telling. Flowers added only two catches for 17 yards as Baltimore failed to score again.
His final production accounted for approximately 46% of Huntley’s 298 passing yards. No other Ravens receiver gained more than 35 yards. Flowers earned Baltimore’s player-of-the-game recognition, but the uneven distribution also highlights the offense’s problem: one explosive receiver couldn't compensate for poor rushing efficiency and repeated failures near the goal line.
