The Ravens can’t count on power running to build and protect leads
Though still a top-10 running offense, the Ravens came in averaging 4.5 yards per carry, which would be their lowest mark since 2018. We saw more of the same against Tennessee’s rugged front as they averaged 3.6 yards on 39 carries.
More specifically, their top short-yardage option, Edwards, is averaging 3.9 yards per attempt after never averaging below 5 in any previous season.
The problem is two-pronged. Edwards came in averaging a career-low 2.46 yards after contact per attempt, per Pro Football Focus.
