For the first time this season, the Baltimore Ravens failed to score a single touchdown in a game, as they came away with a 13-3 road loss to the Cleveland Browns in Week 15.
With Lamar Jackson ruled out for the second consecutive game due to a knee injury, Ravens head coach John Harbaugh called on Tyler Huntley to anchor the offense against Cleveland. The Huntley-led Ravens offense had a difficult time getting much going during the contest. From the failure to score touchdowns on its pair of trips to the red zone to the 0-3 mark on fourth downs, it was a day to forget for the unit.
Ravens running back J.K. Dobbins led the team’s rush attack in the contest with 125 rushing yards, but ultimately, he did not reach the end zone once in the divisional matchup.
Dobbins is not placing blame on the coaching staff for the Ravens’ recent lackadaisical performances on offense but rather believes that it all simply comes down to the players executing.
“We are frustrated for sure,” Dobbins said during his postgame press conference. “It is on us, though. It is not on the coach, and it is not on any of the coaches. It is on us. We have to score. Like I said, we have to make plays.
“We are not making the plays. We are not scoring touchdowns, and somebody has to score them. I take ownership in that, too, because I am not scoring the long ones whenever they are there. I have to do that. It is on me.”
In the big picture, Dobbins still has much confidence in the team at this stage in the season.
“Everything we want is still in front of us,” Dobbins said. “We are going to keep stacking. We are going to take it game by game. We can't look ahead. We can't look to the next opponent that we are not playing [yet]. We are going to stack it, we are going to get ready for Atlanta, and we are going to do everything we can to win that game.”
Overall, the Ravens have scored at least two touchdowns in just two out of their last five games. They will now look ahead to a home game against the Atlanta Falcons coming up in Week 16.
