The Ravens’ 30-23 overtime winover the Falcons required a productive running game, a late offensive turnaround, and one decisive defensive takeaway.
These five numbers explain how Baltimore improved to 4-1.
208 rushing yards
Baltimore averaged 5.9 yards per carry on 35 attempts; Derrick Henry gained 102 yards, while Justice Hill added 73 on four attempts. The running game supplied consistent production even when the Ravens struggled to score.
75% completion rate
Tyler Huntley completed 24 of 32 passes for 201 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions. He completed 13 of 14 attempts after halftime, adding 104 passing yards and both touchdown passes.
Three touchdowns in four red-zone trips
Baltimore entered halftime 0-for-1 in the red zone but finished 3-for-4. Its ability to finish later possessions changed the game after
three first-half field goals.
Nine Atlanta third-down conversions
The Falcons went 9 for 17 on third down. Those conversions helped Atlanta sustain long drives and build a 23-15 fourth-quarter lead, leaving Baltimore little margin for error.
One game-ending interception
Kyle Hamilton intercepted Tua Tagovailoa on Atlanta’s overtime possession. The takeaway balanced Baltimore’s earlier lost fumble and secured the victory after Huntley’s go-ahead rushing touchdown.
