Ravens News 10/3: Earl Thomas fiction and more
Photo by Scott Taetsch/Getty Images Fiction: Thomas has been exposed in coverage.
According to a review of the Ravens’ past three games, Thomas has been “targeted” in coverage — loosely defined as defending an intended receiver or in the vicinity thereof — just five times.
The results: one 34-yard completion, one interception (by cornerback Maurice Canady) and three incompletions. The Ravens had problems in their secondary throughout September, but a defensive back who allowed a 15.8 passer rating against Kyler Murray, Patrick Mahomes and Baker Mayfield was not one of them.
Fiction: Thomas is washed up athletically.
