Baltimore Ravens CB Marlon Humphrey had a tough time losing buddy and previous colleague Patrick Queen to the Pittsburgh Steelers. He had an even more difficult time losing to the Steelers, yet once again, which has actually been the story of his profession. Given that the Ravens prepared him in 2017, they are 4-11 versus the Steelers. And he’s ill of it.
“I believe it’s clear we’ve truly resisted [the Steelers] for many years”, Humphrey stated, by means of the Ravens’ site. “I’ve been on a minimum of 2 or 3 of those 8 or 9 or whatever were video game winners on me. They’ve sort of had our number. You get to see them two times. You simply keep battling. You understand they’re going to be a well-coached group with [Steelers head coach Mike] Tomlin there. It’s constantly a fight, so they’ve had our number, however we’ll simply keep combating”.
Humphrey authored a harsh loss for his Ravens in 2015 when he enabled George Pickens past him for a game-winning goal from Kenny Pickett. In the other day’s video game, he was among the intense areas, that included a huge red-zone interception. It was the Ravens’ offense and unique groups that let them down, consistently. Consisting of 2 missed out on basket by Justin Tucker.
The Steelers are now on their 2nd four-game winning streak over the Ravens given that 2020, winners of 8 of the last 9. Not so long earlier, or so it felt, the Steelers and Ravens remained in a dead-heat tie, now the Steelers have commanding lead at 32-24. Maybe that’s why previous Ravens S DeShon Elliott recommended Humphrey follow him to Pittsburgh.
In spite of permitting over 25 points per video game, nevertheless, the Ravens held a Steelers offense balancing over 30 points in the last 3 video games to simply 18. Marlon Humphrey and his team did their task, even handling that red-zone takeaway. The offense provided the ball up 3 times, consisting of in some unlikely states. And they regularly injure themselves through charge, or dropped passes, getting in their own method.
There are 2 obstacles left in Lamar Jackson’s profession: definitive success versus the Steelers and a Super Bowl prize. He has actually essentially achieved whatever else. In part thanks to him, more than half the Ravens’ lineup is still waiting for subscription.
Ineffective stat that I searched for since I am petty.
“You aren’t a Raven up until you beat the Steelers”
By that meaning, there are more gamers on the Ravens’ 53-man lineup that are NOT Ravens (27) than are (26 ). #Steelers #Ravens

And the important things is, Marlon Humphrey understands the drill. He has actually been through these Ravens-Steelers fights as much as anybody still playing in purple. He understands they did what they can’t do versus them, and they can’t be shocked by the outcomes.
Now the Ravens sit at 7-4 with a loss to the Steelers as their only sensible competitor for the AFC North.
