Takeaways and observations from Ravens 37-3 win over Seahawks

Keaton Mitchell arrived on Sunday, as the undrafted rookie from ECU put the AFC on notice after rushing for 138 yards and his first NFL touchdown in a dominant 37-3 win over the Seahawks.

Odell Beckham Jr. scored his first touchdown since the Super Bowl two seasons ago and Baltimore sent a message, dismantling another first place team.
