The Baltimore Ravens dominated the Houston Texans 31-2, securing their spot as AFC North champions and moving closer to claiming the division title. The team’s impressive performance was led by quarterback Lamar Jackson, who broke Michael Vick’s record for most rushing yards among quarterbacks with 87 yards on the ground.
Jackson also showcased his passing skills, completing 10 of 15 attempts for 168 yards and two touchdowns. His overall stats now stand at 3,955 passing yards and 852 rushing yards for the season.
Running back Derrick Henry contributed to the Ravens’ success, adding 148 yards on the ground. The team’s winning streak extends to three games, with all wins coming since their bye week. As the playoffs approach, it appears the Ravens are peaking at the right time.
In stark contrast, the Texans struggled mightily against the Ravens, failing to score a single point despite having several opportunities. Quarterback C.J. Stroud’s performance was marred by interceptions and sacks, highlighting the team’s ongoing offensive woes. The Texans’ Christmas Day debacle foreshadows a potentially short postseason run if they cannot find ways to improve their offense in time.
