Upset #2 of the postseason comes with game four and the Ravens beating the Titans 20-13. Despite the upset label, the game earned this outcome was certainly less surprising than the Rams beating the Seahawks last night. Lamar Jackson was able to get his revenge from last season after being upset by the Titans in the first round of the playoffs. Lamar Jackson took the offense into his hands by leading in both passing and rushing. We went 17-24 for 179 yards and an interception and rushed 16 times for 136 yards, one as long as 48 yards resulting in his only touchdown today. Ryan Tannehill had a below-average game today going 18-26 for 165 yards 1 touchdown and an interception. Derrick Henry was silenced today with 18 carries for only 40 yards.
Tannehill threw a touchdown to A.J. Brown With 6 minutes remaining in the first quarter. The Titans were not able to find any success in completing drives down the field until a Gostkowski field goal at the beginning of the fourth quarter. The Titans were only able to muster 209 yards and 12 first downs. However, their defense stepped up today sacking Jackson 5 times, picking him off, and forcing Jackson to take all offensive responsibilities into his own hands. Jackson and the Ravens were able to drive down the field twice at the end of the first half allowing for a 25 yard Gostkowski chip-shot field goal and once for Jackson to break off a 48-yard touchdown scramble.
The second half started with a 6 minute, 77-yard drive by the Ravens and a 4 yard J.K. Dobbins rushing touchdown. The third quarter was capped by a missed 52 yard Justin Tucker field goal. Tucker was able to redeem himself by making a 51-yard field goal to give the Ravens a 7 point lead. In an attempt to complete a game-saving drive Tannehill threw a ball intended for Kalif Raymond who unfortunately slipped, and Marcus Peters was able to let the ball fall into his arms. The Ravens were able to convert the first down, seal the victory, and a spot in the divisional round.
Lamar Jackson gets his first postseason win in his career and the Ravens were able to hold the best running back in the league in Derrick Henry along with that the Raven got revenge in an upset against the Titans reversing the rolls from last year.
