Coming off a vindicating win over the Pittsburgh Steelers in which they exorcised some demons, the Baltimore Ravens went on the road for the third and final game of a brutal stretch that took place over 11 days and demolished the Houston Texans 31-2 on Christmas. In doing so, they now sit alone atop the AFC North standings with one game left to play after the Steelers lost at home to the Kansas City Chiefs.
“These guys took these three games in 11 days and smashed it, obliterated it, tore it up and made into a bunch of smithereens laying around everywhere,” head coach John Harbaugh said.
