The Baltimore Ravens made a statement in Week 7 with their 30-16 win over the Seattle Seahawks. While the story of the game was the performance and leadership from quarterback Lamar Jackson, the play of the defense should not be overlooked. The recent moves made on defense by general manager Eric DeCosta were on full display last Sunday. Since one player did not particularly stand apart on defense, the MVP of the week will go to defensive coordinator Don “Wink” Martindale.
The defense faced one of it’s toughest challenges of the season against quarterback Russell Wilson.
