For the first time this season, three different Ravens receivers recorded four receptions or more. Also for the first time this season, Marlon Brown lead the way. He caught five passes for 66 yards which are both season-highs. I’m not the only one that has been stating this ever since the season’s start, but the Ravens must get this guy involved more often!

Steve Smith Sr. also hauled in five passes, but accumulated only 37 yards. And for yet another week, Torrey Smith did not have a significant amount of playing time. However, he did manage to haul in two passes in this game.

Joe Flacco did a really nice job of using the Ravens’ talented tight ends to his advantage. He hit Owen Daniels on four occasions, as he totaled 62 yards and a touchdown. He also found backup tight end Crockett Gillmore for two more catches, totaling 37 yards for the rookie.

Grade: B+
