The Houston Texans had never won a game in Baltimore in their franchise history, but that all changed after Sunday’s blowout win. They looked like a new team on offense as quarterback C.J. Stroud had four touchdowns for the second time in his career. They also dominated the Ravens on offense, limiting them to less than 250 total yards. This was one of the worst losses in Ravens franchise history, matching the 34-point loss to the New England Patriots in 2013. The team was decimated by injuries for this game, with seven starters out with injuries, including quarterback Lamar Jackson. Cooper Rush struggled in Jackson’s absence, throwing three interceptions and could not find a rhythm with his receivers. The rushing offense was nonexistent, with Derrick Henry limited to less than 30 yards once again. The Texans packed the box and were determined not to let Henry get any kind of momentum. Their strategy was perfect against a Ravens team that could not move the ball consistently through the air.The Ravens’ defense was not much better as they did not force a punt until the fourth quarter. The Texans scored on their first eight drives of the game and dominated the time of possession by over 10 minutes. The defense was affected the most by the injuries and the backups could not do anything against the Texans. Stroud had his best game of the season with four touchdowns with only four incompletions.The only bright spot for the Ravens was that they didn’t suffer any more major injuries this game. They will need to get healthy over the next couple of weeks if they hope to salvage this season and make a run for the division and the playoffs.
