The Ravens sacked Drew Brees four times in this game, and all of them came by a linebacker. First off, C.J. Mosley obviously led the Ravens in tackles with nine. That is not new, but what is news is that he also recorded a sack last night, which was the first of his career.

What else happened in this game that isn’t news? Well, Elvis Dumervil took Brees down twice in this game. This was his third multi-sack game of the season, and he is now challenging his carer-high of 17 sacks.

However, something new did happen in this game. Terrell Suggs hit a big milestone, becoming the 31st player in NFL history to record 100 career sacks. Congratulations T-Sizzle!

Grade: A+
