Ravens News 9/5
Debut Performance
King Henry, the former Heisman Trophy winner and NFL rushing champion, made his debut for the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday night against the New York Jets. Henry carried the ball 16 times for 62 yards and a touchdown in the Ravens' 24-9 victory.
Henry's debut was a bit of a mixed bag. He showed his trademark power and elusiveness, but he also had some trouble finding holes in the Jets' defense. Henry was also stopped for a loss on one of his carries.
Overall, Henry's debut was a solid one. He showed that he can be a valuable asset to the Ravens' offense, but he also needs to work on some things if he wants to be a consistent performer.
Ravens' Offense Struggles
The Ravens' offense struggled to find a rhythm against the Jets' defense. Quarterback Lamar Jackson was just 17-of-29 for 184 yards and a touchdown, and he was sacked four times.
The Ravens' running game was also held in check. Henry was the only Ravens player to rush for more than 20 yards, and the team finished with just 84 yards on the ground.
The Ravens' offense will need to improve if they want to be a contender in the AFC North. They will need to find a way to get Jackson more comfortable in the pocket, and they will need to find a way to get their running game going.
Ravens' Defense Shines
The Ravens' defense was the bright spot in the team's victory over the Jets. The Ravens held the Jets to just 276 yards of offense and forced two turnovers.
The Ravens' pass rush was particularly impressive. The Ravens sacked Jets quarterback Zach Wilson four times, and they also forced him to throw two interceptions.
The Ravens' defense will need to continue to play at a high level if the team wants to be successful in 2022.
Conclusion
The Ravens got off to a 1-0 start in 2022 with a victory over the Jets. The Ravens' offense struggled, but the defense was able to pick up the slack.
The Ravens will need to improve their offensive performance if they want to be a contender in the AFC North. However, the Ravens have a lot of talent on their defense, and they should be able to compete for a playoff spot.
