The Baltimore Ravens and Houston Texans faced off in a classic matchup in Week 2. With superstar quarterbacks Lamar Jackson and Deshaun Watson squaring off, it was bound to be a show.
They both had their moments, but it might have been running back that ended the game. Baltimore rusher Mark Ingram used a trick play to score a 30-yard touchdown that might have sealed it (via Ravens on Twitter).

With Baltimore up 23-13 early in the fourth quarter, Ingram lined in shotgun and took a direct snap. He didn't wait around after getting the ball. The running back immediately took off and scampered all the way to the end zone for a 30-yard touchdown run.
With the game already in the fourth quarter, it feels like 17 points might be hard to overcome. It certainly is not over, but being down by that much to the Ravens feels like an impossible hill to climb.
This game might not be what a lot of people were expecting or hoping for. Jackson and Watson are seen as two of the best and most exciting quarterbacks in the NFL. So a shootout that saw them going back and forth would have been really fun.
Instead, Baltimore sort of clinched the game a little earlier than most football fans would have liked. It sort of took some of the excitement and intrigue out of the contest.
