Baltimore Ravens defense: Pass rush isn’t everything

There was a stretch during the 2019 season — weeks 2 through 6, to be precise — when the Baltimore Ravens’ obvious lack of a pass-rush was threatening my mental and emotional well-being.

From Kyler Murray bouncing around the pocket for what seemed like days to Patrick Mahomes hitting open receivers downfield to Baker Mayfield finding the time to feed Jarvis Landry at will, my blood pressure escalated while my hair line ran away. It was at the frustration over the Ravens inability to make life even remotely difficult for opposing quarterbacks.
