The Baltimore Ravens suffered a heartbreaking 29-24 loss to the Cleveland Browns after a potential game-winning interception slipped through Kyle Hamilton’s fingers, allowing the Browns to score a late touchdown and snatch victory. This defeat continues the Ravens’ trend of late-game collapses, ending their five-game winning streak.
Baltimore Ravens safety Eddie Jackson expressed frustration over the team’s defensive struggles, particularly in late-game situations. Despite hard work in practice, the defense is failing to translate it into game performance, missing crucial plays. The team has gone from a dominant defense last season to one of the worst this season, with changes in personnel and coaching contributing to the decline. Defensive coordinator Zach Orr’s first season has seen the Ravens rank last in pass defense and struggle with big plays. Players like Nnamdi Madubuike are frustrated, feeling the team should be performing better, especially given their pride in defense.
