The Baltimore Ravens have only produced one losing season

John Harbaugh and today’s victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers ensured another season of .500 or better football. That’s a pretty solid streak Youth John Brown Jersey , and is especially impressive this season considering the Ravens have fielded essentially two different teams considering the disparity between starting quarterbacks Joe Flacco and Lamar Jackson.The victory was Jackson’s fourth this season and he again played a big role in willing Baltimore to a win. Let’s take a look at his (and the rest of the rookies) performances this week:The usual suspectsTommy Gilligan-USA TODAY SportsAs has been the case since Jackson took the reigns a month ago, he and Gus Edwards again led the way in this victory. The now unquestioned starter at QB threw for 131 yards and a touchdown and chipped in another 95 yards on the ground.For as much talk as there’s been about this offense being a gimmick, it’s hard to argue with the rushing results thanks to Jackson’s freakish speed and athleticism. That strong rushing was again led by Edwards who had 104 yards and a touchdown, as well as some fierce late rushing to put the game out of reach.It’s certainly early, but as the wins continue to stack up, it’s hard not to be excited about the potential of Jackson and Edwards the next several seasons. Today was a vintage performance by these two.Rounding things outTommy Gilligan-USA TODAY SportsFor all the talk of Hayden Hurst being a disappointment this season, he’s quietly had a few nice games this season with this being one of them. He had three catches for 20, and seems to have a bit better of a connection with Jackson than he did with Flacco.Hurst’s fellow rookie tight end Mark Andrews also had a nice one, with two catches for 31 yards http://www.ravenscheapstores.com/alex-lewis-jersey-cheap , one of which was a crucial third down snag. Outside of those two guys, Orlando Brown Jr. was the other offensive rookie to again fill in nicely in this game, not having any major slip ups, and solidifying a very important position for Baltimore.At 8-6, Baltimore has to be incredibly pleased with their rookie class who have in some ways been a catalyst towards keeping them in the playoff hunt this season. It remains to be seen how far they can go this year, but for now this squad seems to have a bright future behind some of their stronger young players.Bold Predictions: Ravens vs. Browns The Ravens head to Cleveland this week to face a young, up-and-coming Browns roster. Baltimore Beatdown contributors detail bold predictions for the contest.Sage’s predictions:Baker Mayfield and Joe Flacco will both throw interceptions. Both quarterbacks have thrown two picks in 2018; however, it is worth noting Mayfield has played in two games to Flacco’s four starts. Still, both signal callers are matched up against ball hawking secondaries. Look for Cleveland’s Denzel Ward to cause a turnover or for Baltimore’s Brandon Carr to kill one of Mayfield’s drives. The Ravens will deliver an improved rushing performance.Baltimore’s stagnant run game has been a blemish on the first quarter of the season. In Week 5 Youth Willie Snead IV Jersey , they will encounter their worst run defense to-date, as the Browns rank 23rd in the NFL. While they have yet to eclipse 100 rushing yards since their Week 1 blowout of the Bills, Cleveland allowed Marshawn Lynch to rush for 139 yards (a 6.5 yard average) in their Week 4 loss.Vasilis’ predictions:Joe Flacco will throw for more than 350 yards.Last year in Cleveland, Flacco’s 288 passing yards was his highest total of the season. Baltimore’s runners are unlikely to find success behind their blockers against the Browns stout front, so #5 will once again be asked to carry the load. With the assistance of Marty Mornhinweg and Willie Snead, he will be up to the challenge. Kenny Young will lead the Ravens in tackles.Young received only 24 snaps last week against Pittsburgh’s pass first offense. He will play nearly every defensive snap this week, as Cleveland leads the NFL in rushing attempts this season. The Browns elite interior offensive linemen trio will focus on blocking Brandon Williams, Michael Pierce and C.J. Mosley, allowing Young to roam free and rack up the tackles.Dustin’s predictions:Baker Mayfield will commit three turnovers.After committing four turnovers in a 45-42 loss to the Oakland Raiders Cheap Marshal Yanda Jersey , things will not be any easier against Baltimore for the rookie quarterback in his second start. Mayfield has yet to face a top defense like the Ravens, which is ranked second in total defense, fourth in passing and fourth in rushing yards per game. Baltimore’s elite secondary will get the better of Mayfield and force him into several turnovers, and Terrell Suggs will get his signature strip sack.Myles Garrett will be a non-factor. The Ravens did an excellent job of game-planning for and containing elite pass rusher Von Miller in Week 3 against the Denver Broncos. Offensive coordinator Marty Mornhinweg will put together another nice game plan, rendering Garrett useless with chip blocks and double teams. Just like Miller, Garrett will not record a single sack.
