Instant Reaction: Ravens Stifle Jaguars, Win 20-12

Baltimore got off to a good start and scored a touchdown on their first possession, but four Jacksonville field goals gave them a 12-10 lead after the first half. The Ravens took the lead back with a touchdown in the third quarter, and then sealed the game with a field goal in the final minute.

Turning Point:

The Jaguars were driving late in the fourth quarter with a chance to take the lead, but turned it over on downs. Baltimore then drove down the field, milking away the rest of the clock.

Key Stat:

Despite Jacksonville's success in moving the ball down the field, the Ravens' defense didn't allow a single touchdown. That allowed their offense to continue to follow their gameplan and score enough points to win.

Baltimore MVP:

Quarterback Joe Flacco continues to be the steady rock that leads the Ravens offense, completing 20/30 passes for 221 yards and a touchdown.

Jacksonville MVP:

Kicker Josh Scobee was the only Jaguar to put points on the board in this one, so he gets this award. He finished 4/5 on field goals on the day, including two from 53-yards away.

What’s Next?

Baltimore will host the Houston Texans next weekend, while Jacksonville returns home to face the Tennessee Titans on Thursday night.
