Standing in the middle of the locker room following the Ravens' 30-23 win over the Washington Commanders, Baltimore running back Derrick Henry playfully cut off a reporters' question about how the exact play -- a pitch run to the left side -- sealed a victory for the second straight week. 'Shush, shush, shush,' Henry said with a smile about his 27-yard run. 'I don't know what you're talking about.' For the Ravens, there are no secrets anymore about their success.
Baltimore has developed a grit to finish off games, closing out Sunday's win by scoring on its final five drives before taking a knee to run out the clock. The Ravens are playing with so much confidence that it doesn't matter where they start on the field, putting together touchdown drives of 93 and 94 yards. In this hyped showdown of the NFL's highest scoring teams, the Ravens offense came away with bragging rights -- even if they chose not to use them.
The Ravens have found a balance in their offensive game, effectively running and passing the ball. This versatility has brought a new level of confidence to the team, especially in clutch moments during games. As Derrick Henry emphasized, 'We came in here humble. We're being humble.' This attitude has played a significant role in their current success, as they maintain the top position in the competitive AFC North.
