The Baltimore Ravens endured another rough outing on Thursday night, losing 33-10 to the Jacksonville Jaguars. The defeat marked their fourth consecutive loss and dropped their record to 4-5.
The final score doesn't capture the full extent of Baltimore's struggles. The team failed to produce a consistent passing attack, made repeated mistakes, and let Jacksonville take advantage of short fields.
Here are seven statistics that shed light on the Ravens' latest setback.
1. A mere 55 net passing yards
Baltimore managed only 55 net passing yards against Jacksonville—a startling figure for a team that began the season with Super Bowl hopes. Joe Fagnano threw for 60 yards, while Derrick Henry completed one pass for a loss of 3 yards. The Ravens also lost 2 yards on a sack.
2. Three turnovers
The Ravens turned the ball over three times, including two interceptions by Fagnano and a lost fumble by LaJohntay Wester on a kickoff return. These miscues handed Jacksonville extra possessions and made a comeback nearly impossible.
3. Four straight losses
Baltimore has now lost four consecutive games after starting the season 4-1. With their record at 4-5, the pressure is mounting ahead of their next game against the Chargers.
4. Two completions of 50+ yards allowed
Trevor Lawrence connected with Nate Boerkircher for 52 yards on Jacksonville's opening drive and later found Parker Washington for a 50-yard touchdown. These plays highlighted Baltimore's ongoing issues defending deep passes.
5. Seven penalties
The Ravens were flagged seven times for 46 yards, including multiple false starts. The penalties stalled drives and added unnecessary obstacles for an offense already missing its starting quarterback.
6. Four of 14 on third down
Baltimore converted just 4 of 14 third-down attempts. Their inability to sustain drives kept the offense from generating consistent scoring chances, even though the Ravens finished with a slight edge in time of possession.
7. One 65-yard touchdown
Justice Hill's 65-yard touchdown run accounted for Baltimore's only trip to the end zone. That single play also represented nearly 29% of the Ravens' total offensive output—a troubling sign for a team that struggled to move the ball consistently outside of one explosive run.
Baltimore has time to prepare for its next game, but these numbers reveal problems that a change at quarterback alone cannot fix.
