The Baltimore Ravens faced the tall task of heading on the road for a Sunday Night Football matchup against an Atlanta Falcons team that's been rolling since Michael Penix Jr.'s return, and they had to do so without star quarterback Lamar Jackson. Even so, the Ravens were just small underdogs, and, not surprisingly, star running back Derrick Henry was as confident as ever.
With Tyler "Snoop" Huntley running the show for the Ravens, they managed to rally late after trailing from the middle of the first quarter to score a touchdown with a two-point conversion and tie the game at 23, ultimately sending it to overtime. At that point, Huntley, Henry and the Ravens offense perfectly milked the overtime clock, burning over seven minutes on a 14-play,
63-yard drive to score a touchdown and put the pressure back on Atlanta.
Tua Tagovailoa, who stepped in for an injured Penix Jr., was intercepted, sealing the deal for Baltimore. And after the game, Henry was the first to make sure those who picked against the Ravens heard about it.
"I do want to say, I saw a post on Instagram, Baltimore Sun; there weren't a lot of y'all picking us to win," Henry said with a smirk. "I couldn't wait for this moment. I'm going to go back and look because I saved it."

For what it's worth, Henry's playful jabs were just lighthearted trolling. And after all, with the Falcons' impressive back-to-back wins and Jackson sidelined, it's understandable that some believed Atlanta could pick up another primetime victory on Sunday. Unfortunately for the Falcons, Huntley and Henry had other plans and stepped up when it mattered most.
