PASS DEFENSE
The Ravens confused Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield with well-designed coverages and blitzes, holding him to 189 passing yards on 21 of 39 passes. All-Pro Marlon Humphrey picked up his first interception of the season off a deflection by Calais Campbell. Humphrey and fellow All-Pro cornerback Marcus Peters held Mayfield’s top deep target, Odell Beckham Jr., to three catches on 10 targets.
Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes did what he wanted against Houston, completing 24 of 32 passes for 211 yards and three touchdowns. Cornerbacks Bradley Roby and Vernon Hargreaves III struggled to keep up with Kansas City’s fleet receivers, and the Texans hit Mahomes just three times. Houston ranked 29th in pass defense last season, allowing opponents to average 6.9 yards per pass attempt
