The Baltimore Ravens have fallen from 4-1 to 4-3, thanks to a pair of division games in which a 10-0 halftime lead against the Browns became a loss and a 13-0 halftime lead against the Bengals became a loss.
The two games, which have made the Ravens 0-2 in the AFC North for the first time since 2007, have contributed to a strange statistical trend for Baltimore.
Via NBC Sports research, the Ravens have a scoring differential of +65 in the first half of games. That’s the highest margin in the league. In the second half of games, Baltimore’s scoring differential is -63. That’s the worst in the league.
The 35-13 final score against Cincinnati made the Ravens the first team in 76 years to be winning by 13 or more at halftime and to lose by 20 or more.
The situation adds even more pressure when the Ravens return to Buffalo. Where, in Week 1 of the 2025 season, Baltimore led by 15 with 11:49 to play and lost, 41-40.
