The New England Patriots and Baltimore Ravens have one half of their Week 16 matchup in the books. At the break, these playoff hopefuls are knotted up at 10 apiece. 

Out of the gate, it looked as if Baltimore was building the foundation for a blowout. They began the game with an opening touchdown drive that took less than three minutes to travel 65 yards down the field and was capped off by a Derrick Henry touchdown run. After that, Marlon Humphrey picked off Drake Maye in the red zone to eliminate a Patriots scoring opportunity on their first touch. 

However, the Ravens’ momentum was stalled after Henry fumbled on the ensuing possession. That led to New England going on a 10-0 run to get back in the game and momentarily take a lead before Tyler Loop connected on a 35-yard field goal before the half to tie things up. While the game is tight, there is concern on the Baltimore side after Lamar Jackson went to the locker room with a back injury just before halftime. The team says he is officially questionable to return. 

With a win, the Patriots clinch a playoff berth, while the Ravens are looking to stay hot on the heels of the Pittsburgh Steelers in the AFC North race.
