The Baltimore Ravens faced the Arizona Cardinals in a game at State Farm Stadium. Lamar Jackson, the Ravens' quarterback, has an impressive win percentage of .941 against NFC teams, the best by any QB since the 1970 merger. The Cardinals scored the first touchdown of the game, but the Ravens came back and took a 14-7 lead at halftime. In the second half, the Ravens extended their lead to 24-7 with a field goal by Justin Tucker. However, the Cardinals managed to score another touchdown, making the score 24-15. This was the first time since Week 2 that the Ravens' defense allowed multiple touchdowns in a game.
This marks the first time since Week 2 that the #Ravens defense has allowed multiple TDs in a game. Baltimore had gone five straight game with one or no touchdowns given up, which had been the longest active streak in the league. Ravens up, 24-15, midway through the 4Q.
Justin Tucker is good from 48 yards. Ravens finally got some semblance of ground game going on that last drive. That was an 8-play drive that ate nearly the first five minutes of fourth quarter. Ravens lead 24-7 with 9:27 left in fourth.

Ravens go up 14-7 just before halftime. https://t.co/BejF0xafF3
Ravens lead 14-7 at half, thanks to Stephens pick and Edwards' score late in the second quarter. Otherwise, Ravens were sluggish. 4 penalties, a missed Tucker FG (albeit over 50). Run defense gave ground and Ravens didn't make much of an attempt to establish their own run game.
#Ravens lead 14-7 at halftime. Can Baltimore put away Arizona in the second half? The Cardinals have been outscored by 74 points after halftime this season -- the worst second-half margin in the NFL.
#Ravens CB Brandon Stephens gets his second interception of the season. Joshua Dobbs overthrows his receiver and goes to Stephens. Ravens get the ball at the Cardinals' 43 late in first half.

Cardinals stopped on fourth-and-one. Michael Pierce makes another play.
Justin Tucker's 53-yard field goal hits the left upright. His only three misses this year have been from 50 or longer. It remains tied in Arizona: Ravens 7, Cardinals 7.

At State Farm Stadium - @AZCardinals vs @Ravens https://t.co/6JUxSMjPAM
Aided by two penalties, the Cardinals go 75 yards on 12 plays and get a tush-push TD by QB Josh Dobbs to take a 7-0 lead on the Ravens.
Joshua Dobbs scores on 1-yard run. This marks the first time Ravens have not scored first this season. It also marks the first time Baltimore has given up a TD in the first quarter this season. Not the start many expected in Arizona, where Ravens trail 7-0.
Dobbs scores on QB sneak and Ravens give up the first points in a game for the first time all season. That was a 12-play, 75-yard drive by the Cardinals, aided by two third-down penalties on Kyle Hamilton and Marlon Humphrey. It's 7-0 Arizona and half the first quarter is over.
Cardinals drove 75 yds for Td on first possession. Convert in red zone vs NFL’s best defense in that area.
Cardinals have gone right down the field on the Ravens and now have a first-and-goal from the 1 after Humphrey was flagged for pass interference on Marquise Brown in the end zone.
#Ravens defense will be out on the field first. Fun fact: Baltimore has scored first in seven straight games, which is currently the longest active streak in the NFL.
3rd-and-18, and Pierce gets 19. A couple big first downs by Pierce in this second half.
