Overview

  • New England erased an 11-point fourth-quarter deficit, with Rhamondre Stevenson scoring the go-ahead touchdown at 2:15 for a 28-24 win.
  • Lamar Jackson exited before halftime after being kneed in the back; John Harbaugh called it a back bruise under evaluation, and Jackson labeled the hit "BS."
  • Backup Tyler Huntley completed 9 of 10 passes for 65 yards and helped stake a 24-13 lead before the late collapse.
  • Baltimore’s last chance ended when Zay Flowers was stripped and fumbled with 1:48 remaining.
  • At 7-8, the Ravens are out of wild-card routes; Pittsburgh can clinch the AFC North in Week 17 with a win over the Browns or if Baltimore loses at Green Bay on Saturday.
