Baltimore Beat Down · Dec 16, 2018
Six takeaways from the Ravens’ 20-12 win over the Buccaneers
On a cold rainy day, the Baltimore Ravens escaped with a narrow 20-12 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Defensively, it was a terrific showing against the top passing offense in the NFL aside from a few plays. They limited Jameis Winston to 157 yards and an interception.
On the other side of the ball, it was a frustrating performance. Despite winning the time of possession battle by nearly 15 minutes and converting nine of their 16 third-down opportunities, Baltimore struggled to put points on the board. Although they had five red zone trips, the Ravens only amassed two touchdowns and two field goals.
