Baltimore Ravens vs Minnesota Vikings | Week 10 Game Preview

Baltimore Ravens vs Minnesota Vikings | Week 10 Game Preview

Minnesota Vikings at home week 10 with a whole new outlook on the rest of the season. First down would win it. McCarthy throwing it. Neil. Oh, he caught it. Oh yeah, big fella. That’s it. That’s how you lead your team to victory. They host the Baltimore Ravens who feel the exact same way. The Flock’s been singing Herbs and Peaches all week long, too. Off the fake, deep drop. Looks around, fires over the middle. Touchdown, Rashad Baitman. If your team wears purple, you were humming it. At least reunited and it felt so good. Lamar Jackson behind the mic last week. Haven’t seen a reunion click so smoothly since Tom Dong got back there with blank. It was like Lamar was never gone. Casually went 18 for 23 versus Miami. Four TDs. Hoham 143 rate. Passes caught by Andrews for another touchdown. Gone for a month. He’s back in full flower. Lamar leads the NFL with a 136 rating. 14 touchdowns stacked against one lonely pick. Offense put up 28 points. It’s been good for 28 plus points, two in a row to bring their season average close to typical Jackson levels. Lamar under pressure wide open again. This time to number 88 Charlie Kar for the touchdown. Okay. Well, across the way it was JJ McCarthy making his return from injury two. didn’t burst back onto the scene, but that dime to Jaylen Naylor was a real be. Clark walked out with a couple touchdowns in his first action since week two. McCarthy looking, throwing, caught. Touchdown, Hawinson. Minnesota’s offense racked up 27 points, which they’ve done in two of McCarthy’s three starts. Thinking about running a try for it. McCarthy is in. Touchdown Minnesota. They hadn’t cracked 23 points the four games prior to last week. But it should be noted McCarthy only threw for 143 yards in their win. In his three games, 143 yards twice, 158 in the other. Just 5.7 yards per attempt versus Detroit, one pick, a low 80s rate, and he took five sacks on 25 pass attempts. These Vikings quarterbacks have been dealing with pressure all season long. Ravens pass rush racked up two twice last week. only 11 sacks for the year though hasn’t been a strength which is why they traded for Draymond Jones has four and a half sacks on the season coincidentally all coming in his last four games one plus in four straight so he’s on fire coming into this one Draymond Jones Shrek for Halloween but the once battered Baltimore D is trending in the right direction as it gets healthier have held their last three opponents under 18 points after holding Miami to six two for 12 on third down, 0 for three in the red zone. The Ravens are saying they got a turnover. Looks like they did. They do. That was the rookie Buchanan who knocked that out. McCarthy drawing a secondary that hasn’t been dinged by a quarterback in three straight. Kyle Hamilton back to his old self, playing the Haymon role to perfection. They held Tongabiloa to a 70 rate, no touchdowns, picked him off to a deep down field and it’s going to be intercepted. From blitzing linebacker to every corner spot in every safety spot on the field. Hamilton had like seven jobs a game, man. So you could see him line up across from TJ Hawinson. He caught a touchdown versus the Lions only 11 yardds. Jordan Addison who led them with 48 yards. Zips one downfield. It is caught. Addison came back to get it. Or he could be in front of Jedha. Justin Jefferson helped produce a Jimmy Walker special versus Detroit. Danced, collected 47 yards. McCarthy zips it to Jefferson who makes the catch, falls down, gets up, adds a few more. Aaron Jones, 20 receiving yards, revved it up as a runner for the first time this season, 78 yards on nine tries for a fat 8.7 aer run. Give it to Aaron Jones. had a big seam up the middle and Jones all the way to midfield. Ravens front hasn’t excelled against the run. 4.6 yds per carry allowed to running backs after giving up 67 yds on 4.8 a run to Devon Aan. Hand the ball off here. Big hole and exploited here by Achan. Stopping the run a bigger concern for the Vikings defense in all likelihood. Lamar didn’t use his legs for much versus the Fins. Baby steps. And when you have Derek Henry heating up, you can afford to take her easy. Henry 119 on the ground, 6.3 a carry, his second 100 plus yard outing in his last three. Giving it to Henry. Henry around the corner. Henry off to the races. Henry gets tackled at about the Minnesota just faced Sonic and Knuckles. Gave him the Jim Carrey treatment. Faced 20 David Montgomery and Jir Gibbs rush attempts. 65 yards held him to 3.3 per attempt. Gibbs. Oh, he’s taken down immediately by Jayvon Hargrave. Their week nine play versus the run better than their 2025 play versus the run. The secondary Lamar takes on gave up two TDs to Jared Goff. No picks, a rating allowed of 108. Throwing for Jameson Williams. He’s got it. Diving to the end zone is he in Haven’t played passing games great in 2025, so their play versus golf fit their body of work. They gave up 24 points to Detroit. That’s not horrible, but not in the great range. And they’ve given up 24 plus points in four of their last five. Still on his feet and Dragon goal in the end zone. Touchdown. They also held Detroit to 5 for 17 on third down. One for three in the red zone. That pass rush of theirs tilting things in key moments all game long. They got to go five times. Javon Hargrave one bag. Eric Wilson blitzed his way to two. They hit Goff a healthy 11 times. Third and six. Pressure again. Goff is swallowed up hole. Minnesota with the second highest blitz rate in the NFL this year. Lamar nine TDs against five plus pass rushers. Only one pick, a league high 136 rate. So buyer beware. Lamar Jackson, his eyes must have lit up. Minnesota’s DBs gave up 66 yards in a TD to Jameson Williams last week. 97 yards, nine catches to Aman Ross St. Brown. Raven’s air game is a Flowers & Company arrangement. Zay the one constant 64 receiving yards last week 63 to 74 and four of his last five. Making the grab, cutting inside, tackled to the 10 yd line. Zay Flowers. Rashad Baitman two catches 13 yds a touchdown versus the Dolphins. He’s been under 25 yards six of eight games. Ravens also gave up 97 yards and a touchdown to tight end Sam Leaporta. Lamar leaned into his tight ends versus Miami. Charlie Kolar, two catches, 23 yards and a TD. Mark Andrews with a pair of paint jobs. Isaiah likely second behind Flowers with 60 yards. Lamar gets away. Lamar throws finds wide open Isaiah likely. Four to three. Flock up on Purple People Leaders. That’s it. Just seven games featuring the two. First meeting was a pretty good one, too. 1 2 3. At Baltimore, the special teams generated valuable points as David Palmer became the first Viking to return a kickoff for a touchdown in 10 years. Palmer breaks into the clear at the 40, the 45, and the 50, and the 45. Palmer the 40, the 30, the 20, the 15, the 10, the five. Touchdown Vikings. Gary Anderson added six field goals in the process breaking the consecutive field goal mark of 31. By year’s end, he would extend his streak to 40, capping off a season for the ages.
