Chargers Fall to Ravens as Defensive Struggles and Offensive Lulls Persist

A dominant Ravens offense and key injuries expose vulnerabilities in the Chargers' defense and offensive execution during a 30-23 loss.

The Ravens exploited the Chargers' defense, accumulating 212 rushing yards and 177 passing yards, exposing gaps in the absence of key linebacker Denzel Perryman.
Quarterback Justin Herbert acknowledged offensive struggles, citing missed red-zone opportunities and third-down inefficiency as critical factors in the loss.
Running back J.K. Dobbins exited in the second quarter with a knee injury, leaving the Chargers without a key offensive contributor in the second half.
The Ravens dominated the second half, outgaining the Chargers 217 to 83 total yards and converting critical fourth-down plays to maintain control of the game.
With a 7-4 record, the Chargers face a challenging road ahead, including matchups against winning teams like the Falcons and Chiefs in the coming weeks.
