After recovering a fumble and intercepting a pass in the fourth quarter, Baltimore defensive back Marlon Humphrey said the Ravens were trying to measure up to the defenses that led the franchise to its greatest heights.
“That’s kind of what we’re chasing, and we’re looking better and better every week,” he said.
Baltimore’s 13-3 victory over Carolina on Sunday looked like a throwback to the days when the Ravens could win big with a phenomenal defense and a marginal offense. Although this year’s team is capable of scoring points with Lamar Jackson at quarterback, it’s the improvement on the other side of the ball that has made its current four-game winning streak possible.
