Baltimore just got an 18-yard touchdown reception from Derrick Henry, but it wasn’t enough to tie things up, with the Falcons still clinging to a 17-15 lead. After settling for a bunch of field goals in the first half, the Ravens finally put the ball in the end zone, but man, what a miss on the extra points.
Henry Finds the End Zone, But Not Enough
King Henry finally broke through! It was an 18-yard touchdown reception, his sixth receiving touchdown of his career, which is pretty wild for a guy known for bulldozing. The Ravens got themselves into scoring position thanks to a monster 47-yard run by Justice Hill. He was actually in the backfield right alongside Henry when the snap went down, setting up a couple of plays later for Henry to catch that screen pass. He got up to speed and punched it in, exactly what Baltimore needed to claw back into this game.
Two-Point Conversion Slip Costs Baltimore Big
You can just feel the air go out of the stadium when that two-point conversion didn’t hit. After Henry’s touchdown, the Ravens tried to tie the score at 17-17, but Mark Andrews just couldn’t hang onto the pass in the end zone. So, instead of being all square, Atlanta still holds that slim 17-15 lead. It’s a gut punch, really.
The Ravens have gotta figure out how to get those crucial points. They’ve found the end zone now, but letting that conversion slip away could come back to haunt them. Every point matters when it’s this close, and they’ll be kicking themselves for not snagging that extra two.
