Baltimore, MD – The Los Angeles Rams improved their season record to 4-2 after defeating the Baltimore Ravens 17-3 on Sunday at M&T Bank Stadium. The game highlighted a series of self-inflicted mistakes by both teams, yet timely turnovers and a strong defensive performance led to the Rams’ victory.
Rams inside linebacker Nate Landman delivered a standout performance, setting a franchise record with 17 total tackles during the contest. Landman’s achievement is significant, as only four other Rams players have recorded 16 or more tackles in a single game since 1994. Additionally, Rams safety Quentin Lake made his mark by recording his first career interception along with a fumble recovery.
The game’s scoring opened with the Ravens taking a 3-0 lead, thanks to a 37-yard field goal by Loop with 7:22 left in the first quarter. The Rams responded in the second quarter with a 36-yard field goal by kicker Joshua Karty, tying the game at 3-3. The balance shifted in the third quarter when Rams running back Kyren Williams rushed for a 3-yard touchdown, giving the Rams a 10-3 lead following Lake’s fumble recovery.
The Rams further extended their lead with an 8-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Matthew Stafford to tight end Tyler Higbee, concluding the scoring at 17-3. Karty managed to convert both extra point attempts, although he missed one of two field goal attempts earlier in the game.
On the other side, the Ravens struggled offensively, committing multiple turnovers and missing key scoring opportunities, including a failed 4th-and-goal attempt from the Rams’ 1-yard line. Star Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson was sidelined due to a hamstring injury, placing additional pressure on the team’s offense.
Despite a notable performance from Ravens running back Derek Henry, who amassed 122 yards on 24 carries, the team could not manage a touchdown. The Ravens have scored only 13 points in the last two games without Jackson and have committed 10 turnovers while forcing just three takeaways throughout the first six games of the season.
The Ravens’ defense managed to limit the Rams to just 17 points after allowing 44 points in a loss to Houston the previous week, highlighting a potential improvement in their defensive efficiency. However, head coach John Harbaugh expressed frustration over critical mistakes that ultimately affected the outcome of the game.
As the Ravens prepare for their bye week, they remain hopeful for Jackson’s return in their next game scheduled for October 26, aiming to turn around the team’s recent struggles as they search for their first win since Week 4. Meanwhile, the Rams will look to build on their success and continue their push for a playoff spot.
