It wasn’t the best day at the office for Lamar Jackson and his team, but they got the job done. The Ravens made their way to a comfortable 6-34 win in front of home fans in Baltimore. Coach Harbaugh’s guys were in control right from the start as they led by a 0-7 margin at the end of the 1st quarter.
Justin Herbert and the Chargers tried to fight their way back into the game in the second half but the Ravens’ defence was at their very best today. All in all, it was a brilliant win for the home team who now sit at the top of the AFC North division table with a 5-1 record at the halfway stage of the 2021 NFL season.

The Chargers' passing game distribution and designs have been frustrating for a while. Herbert erasing a lot of silly, easy stuff with great play. Really gotta hope this is a learning process for a new coaching staff and not locked in for the rest of the season. https://t.co/xHiVUdF9nn

Justin Herbert on the Ravens defense:
"They did a great job of disguising their looks and bringing pressure from one way and hiding from another. Looks that they haven't showed all season, looks that we have to be better at adjusting to during a game.''— Adam Aizer (@AdamAizer) October 18, 2021
The Chargers will take this loss as a learning curve. They won’t dwell too much on this latest result. Instead, Herbert and Co. will shift their focus onto their next game against Bill Belichick and the New England Patriots on October 31, 2021.
