The Ravens’ defense has not been able to handle quarterbacks of the Pro Bowl level this season.

According to Jonas Shaffer of The Baltimore Banner, the pass rush by outside linebackers Dre’Mont Jones and Tavius. Robinson and defensive guard Travis Jones was one of the reasons that the defense was successful in stifling Burrow.

Dre’Mont, who has improved the Ravens pass rush ever since he was acquired at the deadline for trades, played his best game as a Raven yet, recording five hits on the quarterback and seven pressures.

Robinson, who was playing his first game after a broken leg in Week 6, also had a sack. Robinson applied the pressure which led Burrow to throw the game-winning interception, which was returned for a touchdown.

The Bengals could not have predicted the performance because this was the first time that the trio played together.

Shaffer wrote: “On Burrow’s 18 drop-backs, he went 7-for-15, for 54 yards. He scrambled two times for 5 yards. He took one sack, and threw 2 interceptions.” “Overall the Bengals averaged a paltry 2.5 yards per play, and had an appalling 21.1% success in their 19 plays with the Joneses and Robinson on the field.

Their pass rush credentials were not impressive: only 9.5 combined sacks. Their on-field interaction was seamless. According to Next Gen Stats from the NFL, Burrow’s pressured dropbacks were seven times on plays involving the Joneses and Robinson. The Ravens’ pressure rate was 38.9% when the trio was on the field. The Minnesota Vikings lead the NFL with a pressure rate of 41% this season.

On Sunday night, the Ravens will have to rely on their pass rush once again when they take on another excellent quarterback in the New England Patriots Drake Maye.

Shaffer wrote: “Maye, an NFL Most Valuable Player and dangerous scrambler who is a favorite, has been sacked 44 times this season. That’s the fourth-most in the league.” “Dre’Mont Jones had one, a takedown during a Tennessee loss at home 31-13 in Week 7.
