Defensive Line

The D-line was the Ravens’ strong-suit last year and it looks to be just that again in 2014. However, it will have competition as the Ravens improved mightily at other positions along the defense.

Second-year man Brandon Williams looked impressive on a couple of plays, including a nice tackle for a loss early on in which he got pushed behind the line and then came back to make the tackle.

Kapron Lewis-Moore, who missed the entire 2013 due to a torn ACL, recorded two tackles in this game. Other then those two, no one stood out on the defensive line but no one was terrible either.

Grade – C+
