Things looked shaky after starting the season with back-to-back losses to the Kansas City Chiefs and the Las Vegas Raiders. But since their 0-2 start, the Ravens turned on the gas and never looked back, and are now winners of six of their last seven games and sit atop the AFC North at 7 -3 after a big win over the Cincinnati Bengals.

Fans Go Scorched Earth After Derrick Henry Wardrobe Mishap
The Ravens were the victor in this matchup. But Ravens running back Derrick Henry still took an L even in a victorious effort. In the second half Henry ran the ball and when the Cincinnati defense tackled him, one of their defenders pulled his pants down leaving his entire buttocks exposed in primetime.

As you might expect, fans on social media had no mercy for Henry.
"Derrick Henry is leaving it all on the field tonight. A** out and everything," one fan said on X, formerly known as Twitter.
"If I'm Derrick Henry I'm leaving my ass cheeks out as a power move," another fan added.
Ravens' Lamar Jackson Gets Honest on Perfect Game Against Broncos
Much of their success has been thanks to Ravens starting quarterback Lamar Jackson. His stats this season have been otherworldy and he is on pace to have the highest completion percentage of his career.
The highlight of Jackson's elite season so far was their 41-10 win over the red-hot Denver Broncos on Sunday, where he had a perfect passer rating of 158.3. But the most impressive part of Jackson's performance against Denver was that he did most of his damage through the air — especially because the dual-threat quarterback has a reputation for doing most of his damage on the ground.
Following his performance, Jackson said that his lack of a rushing attack was more about him just feeling out the game.
"I just didn't feel like I had to," Jackson said. "Things were working in our favor. Guys were getting open; guys were catching the ball; linemen were protecting; running backs were catching the ball [and] tight ends were. Everything was just going our way, and I really didn't have to run. [I had] only, I think, one scramble - I had to though - nobody was open, so that's all."
Coming into their matchup against the Broncos, Jackson had accrued at least 45 rushing yards in every game this season, but against Denver, he had just three rushes for four yards.
