Lamar Jackson leads Ravens No. 3 ranked rush offense into week 8

The Baltimore Ravens rank No. 3 in total rush offense thanks to the prowess of their quarterback Lamar Jackson. As Baltimore prepares for their week 8 match-up with the Arizona Cardinals, it’s important that they establish Jackson in the ground game to avoid any disharmony on offense.

The Cardinals have lost all but one of their seven match-ups this season allowing a total of eight rushing touchdowns and 61 rushing first-downs. This should be more than enough incentive for the Ravens to attack on the ground in week 8.

In an offensive scheme as fluid as the one Ravens offensive coordinator Todd Monken is scheming, nothing is more daunting than three-and-outs and consecutive pass incompletions.

 

Conclusion

The Cardinals will be looking to pull out an upset and if they can keep the Ravens offense on the sideline and the game score low they may rally behind their home crowd to outlasts Baltimore. The Ravens need to avoid the upset and continue their incline as a dominant force in the AFC.
