After being absent atop the Ravens leading tacklers for two straight weeks, C.J. Mosley has gotten back to his old ways. He led the team with eight tackles and recorded a sack for a second consecutive week.

The story in this game, however, was none other than Elvis Dumervil. If you think you’ve seen it all from number 58, think again. The former Denver Bronco recorded a season-high 3.5 sacks in this game, and he has now become the Ravens’ franchise leader for the most sacks in a single season. He currently has 16, and we still have three games to play.

His good buddy rushing from the other side didn’t have such a bad day himself. Terrell Suggs finished second on the team in tackles with six and recorded 1.5 sacks. The two have accumulated a combined 24.5 sacks, which leads the NFL among any pass-rushing duo.

Grade: A+
