Baltimore Ravens Defeat Los Angeles Rams in OT, 37-31

By Stephen Ur

The Baltimore Ravens hosted the Los Angeles Rams at M&T Bank Stadium in Baltimore, MD on Sunday afternoon. The Ravens were coming off a bye week following a Sunday night win out in Los Angeles over the Chargers in Week 12.

After the Rams scored the first points of the game, a 26-yard field goal, Lamar Jackson found tight end Isaiah Likely for a 54-yard touchdown with 25 seconds left in the quarter. Baltimore would keep that 7-3 lead after the first 15 minutes.

The Rams would come back with a touchdown of their own as Matt Stafford found Cooper Kupp for a six-yard score. The Ravens and Rams combined for 21 points over the next 7:01, and both also kicked field goals, including Justin Tucker kicking a 31-yarder as the half expired, and the Rams led 20-17 at halftime.

Tucker kicked his second field goal of the game to tie the game at 20, but the Rams re-took the lead when a fumble past Lamar Jackson went into the end zone for a safety. Los Angeles led 22-20 at the end of the third quarter.

It was a back-and-forth fourth quarter, and with just seven seconds left, Rams kicker Lucas Havrisik kicked a 36-yard field goal, and the game went into overtime with the score tied 31.

The Ravens punted on their first drive, but after the Rams were forced to punt, Tylin Wallace returned it 76 yards for a touchdown to give them a 37-31 win over the Rams.

Baltimore will travel down south to take on the Jacksonville Jaguars next week. Kickoff is scheduled for 8:20 p.m. ET.
