Ravens roll over NY Giants, dominate all phases | Takeaways

The Ravens ran all over the NY Giants in an absolutely dreadful day for the New York Giants who dropped their third consecutive game.

The Baltimore Ravens looked like a team headed to the playoffs while the NY Giants looked like a team ready for draft day.

Sunday, the Ravens pummeled the NY Giants 27-13 in a game New York deemed a “playoff test”.  it was a rough welcome back for QB Daniel Jones who missed the previous week with a hamstring and ankle injury. In his return, he was sacked five times in the game.

For the Giants, the loss guarantees their third consecutive ten loss season.

It’s time to admit this roster, even with Saquon Barkley back, just is not good enough to compete with the elite teams. Facing a playoff team, the Giants looked lost and overmatched. While last month’s four-game winning streak was a nice break in an otherwise forgettable season, it was just an illusion to think this team was ready for the playoffs.

From the first play of the game, Baltimore was in complete control.

The Ravens’ opening drive lasted almost a full nine minutes and resulted in a touchdown pass to Marquise Brown.

Throughout the game, the Ravens controlled the tempo with their rush attack that New York had absolutely no answer for. The defense seemed to be in the right positions to make the right plays, but they were just missing tackles. Jackson was well protected and able to scan the field with little to no pressure.
