Studs and duds from Ravens 22-19 loss to the Colts in Week 3

The Indianapolis Colts traveled into M&T Bank Stadium and upset the Baltimore Ravens in overtime, 22-19, with backup quarterback Gardner Minshew at the helm.

Minshew was 27-44 passing, for 227 yards and one passing touchdown in relief of Anthony Richardson, who missed the game with a concussion.

Baltimore’s rushing attack got going late in the fourth quarter, though, with Lamar Jackson’s second touchdown run of the game giving them a 14-13 lead after three quarters.

John Harbaugh’s team had multiple chances to win the game before overtime and had legendary kicker Justin Tucker fall just short on a potential game-winning 61-yard field goal attempt at the end of regulation.

The Ravens offense stalled in the overtime period, gaining just 11 yards on two conservative overtime possessions, and went for it on fourth-down in their territory with more than enough time on the clock.

Baltimore turned the ball over on downs after a non-pass interference call on rookie Zay Flowers on fourth-and-3 with 3:25 to go.

Colts kicker Matt Gay outplayed Tucker, setting an NFL record with four field goals of 50-plus yards, including the 53-yard game-winner.

With the Ravens set to start preparation on the Browns, here are the studs and duds from Sunday’s upset loss.
