Gameday Preview: Ravens vs. Giants, Week 6

History

While the Ravens would normally meet the Goliaths just once like clockwork, this is an exceptional gathering on the grounds that the 17-game timetable presently adds an additional one non-gathering game. The Ravens last confronted the Goliaths in 2020, a 27-13 Baltimore succeed at M&T Bank Arena. With running back Saquon Barkley hurt, the Ravens shut down New York’s running match-up and terminated Daniel Jones multiple times. Baltimore leaped out to a 17-0 lead and didn’t think back. The Ravens lead the unequaled normal season series 4-2 and have the one postseason triumph in Super Bowl XXXV.

Stakes

The Monsters are one of the NFL’s greatest astonishments at 4-1. They’re hoping to keep on demonstrating that they’re a genuine NFC competitor. The Ravens are falling off a genuinely necessary triumph over the Bengals to assume control over the lead position in the AFC North. The Goliaths are one of only two groups left on the Ravens’ timetable with a triumphant record (likewise Tampa Inlet).

Key Storylines

Wink Martindale trained in Baltimore for 10 years before he and the Ravens headed out in different directions this past offseason. Martindale went to New York and has the Monsters playing great. They’re positioned twelfth in the association in all out protection and have surrendered the 10th least focuses. Martindale knows Lamar Jackson and Greg Roman’s offense well as well as the other way around. Will Martindale break out his normally weighty rush? Martindale saw Jackson and the Ravens battled to track down replies to Cover-0 rushes last year, yet they’ve burnt it this season.

Will the Ravens contain Barkley?

Barkley leads the NFL in total yards and is No. 2 in rushing. The Ravens run defense has been a little susceptible in recent weeks, and gave up nearly five yards per carry last week against the Bengals. Was that because of the Ravens’ commitment to keeping a lid on the Bengals’ deep passing game? Baltimore’s defensive front and linebackers will be tested by the array of different ways Barkley can threaten a defense.

The Ravens will be without wellbeing Marcus Williams after he disjoined his wrist. That implies Geno Stone and freshmen Kyle Hamilton and Pepe Williams will have more on their plates. Williams has made quarterbacks mull over diving deep this season. The Ravens need to ensure the effect of Williams’ misfortune isn’t felt too decisively.
