Ravens OC Todd Monken discusses team’s lack of ball security

The Baltimore Ravens suffered a tough 22-19 overtime loss to the Indianapolis Colts in Week 3 of the 2022 season. The defeat dropped their record to 2-1, and it felt like a major missed opportunity that could have gone Baltimore’s way if they were less sloppy overall.

The Ravens had a fumble on four consecutive drives, which was a main reason why they weren’t able to secure a win. Offensive coordinator Todd Monken discussed the team’s lack of ball security, and said that it doesn’t matter if it’s quarterback Lamar Jackson or someone else, they can’t put the ball on the ground.

[We] can’t put it on the ground. [It] puts us all at risk.”
