The Baltimore Ravens have allowed just one rushing touchdown this season. Sure, Titans running back Derrick Henry may have broken free in the third-quarter Sunday but he felt the presence of Ravens linebackers Patrick Queen and Roquan Smith all game long.
1 game. 6 sacks. 🫡

Queen tallied nine total tackles and brought in one sack in the week 6 victory. His counterpart Smith contributed nine tackles as the Ravens held Henry to just 3.09 yards per carry with the exception to that 63-yard run. More impressively, the Ravens defense has allowed just one rushing touchdown the entire season.
Both Ravens linebackers are still young in their careers. Queen is in his fourth-year and Smith is in his sixth after spending time with the Chicago Bears. Both players are basically entering their prime. With defensive back Marlon Humphrey now healed and healthy, the Ravens defense has allowed just 12 points per game over the last three weeks.
Don’t look now but with a big showdown Sunday, Baltimore may be resurfacing as an elite team in the AFC.
