Las Vegas Raiders last night managed to close down a 15 point lead against the Ravens to mark a heroic victory. This victory also ensured that the Baltimore based side’ 98 game record was broken. Since 2004, the Baltimore Ravens have never lost a game after gaining a lead of more than 14 points.
This record shows the consistency and quality performances that the Ravens have displayed over the years. Despite all this, the Ravens last night had a game to forget as they lost focus in key moments of the match. Their offensive display in particular was not par to their usual self.

Las Vegas Raiders defeat Ravens in the season opener
Baltimore Ravens last night performed poorly with Ty’son Williams being their only bright spot. He scored a 35-yard touchdown on a fourth-and-1. That is the 4th-longest touchdown run by an undrafted player in franchise history, trailing only Priest Holmes (64 and 36 yards) and Gus Edwards (63 yards), according to NFL stats.
Meanwhile, star player Lamar Jackson also had a very inconsistent game as he lost throws consistently in the middle of the park. As far as defensive performances were concerned, Calais Campbell had a solid game. Brandon Williams was also adept at stopping multiple runs. Despite all this, the team couldn’t stitch consistency together which let the Raiders crawl back in the game.
