Three days after John Harbaugh welcomed practice rain as a test of ball security, #Ravens having trouble holding on. Buck Allen recovered his fumble. On punt return, Tim White did not get his. Colts take over in the red zone.
Ravens defense is making it all better. Anthony Levine intercepts Andrew Luck in the red zone. Have stuffed the Colts on consecutive possessions. #ravens
In less time than it took the #Ravens to open the scoring against the Rams, we have a combined two turnovers. Both bad. Both very preseason-y. Anthony Levine Sr.'s pick gives the Ravens possession at their 6.
Joe Flacco gets a fresh start and completes first pass of second possession to Willie Sneed for eight yards. Kenneth Dixon gets first down on first carry. #ravens
That was Kenneth Dixon's first positive play (first play, period) in a game since 2016. He needs to show something over the next three games to secure his spot on the #Ravens 53-man roster.
At the end of the first quarter vs. the Rams, the #Ravens led 17-0. They're 44 seconds from entering the second down 3-0. Colts K Adam Vinatieri was good from 57 yards. Joe Flacco's helmet is still on.
#Ravens get on the board with a nice third-down catch by wide receiver John Brown in the back of the end zone. Justin Tucker's PAT is good. Ravens 7, Colts 3 with 13:21 remaining.
Good open-field tackle there by rookie lb Kenny Young. His mobility against receivers is one of his best traits as he seeks starting weakside job for #Ravens .
#Ravens OLB Terrell Suggs comes tearing off the edge to sack Andrew Luck and end the Colts' drive quickly. They show each other a little love. No doubt Luck told Suggs he was looking forward to his next appearance in "Ballers."
Lamar Jackson hasn't completed a pass, and Justin Tucker just pushed a 59-yarder wide right. #Ravens still lead the Colts 7-3 midway through the second quarter.
Justin Tucker misses from 59 after Vinatieri hit from 57. I wrote about those two guys last year, and there's a lot of mutual appreciation. Tucker called Vinatieri the GOAT. Vinatieri said he hasn't seen many legs as gifted as Tucker's.
#Ravens DT Michael Pierce pries the ball loose from Colts RB Jordan Wilkins just short of the goal line, but the ball falls neatly to WR Chester Rogers. #Colts set to take a 10-7 lead here.
Lamar Jackson had a lane to the first-down marker, but he instead completes a nice 7-yard pass to Chris Moore in the corner of the end zone. Ravens wide receivers have shown good footwork there. #Ravens now up 17-10 just over two minutes in.
The #Ravens coaches have also spoken highly of Lamar Jackson's poise, and you have to give him credit for not letting a bad start turn into a disastrous night.
So much for declaring a clear victor in the #Ravens returner battle as Janarion Grant matched Tim White's fumble. It came at the end of a nice return, too.
.@out_of_order_5 Perriman didn't play until the second half against the Rams either, so I wouldn't read a ton into it. The reality is he's behind a lot of guys on the depth chart.
Robert Griffin III in for his first drive in charge of the #Ravens offense. With Lamar Jackson's struggles, will be interesting to see whether he gets all of the final 14 minutes.
Jordan Lasley just dropped a relatively easy ball that should've been a #Ravens touchdown. Fellow rookie Kaare Vedvik annihilates a ball for a 48-yard field goal. Ravens up 20-10 with 8:50 remaining.
Rough preseason continues for Jordan Lasley, who just dropped a TD pass. #Ravens can't be pleased that he and Jaleel Scott have failed to step forward.
Tyus Bowser and Tim Williams both have sacks tonight, keeping hope alive that the #Ravens really did bolster their pass rush in the defense-heavy 2017 draft.
Colts third-stringer Phillip Walker can't follow his TD pass with a successful QB sneak on the two-point conversion. Ravens lead 20-19 with 2:23 remaining and recover the onside kick.
Lamar Jackson says he came in “cold.” Blames himself for not coming into the game better prepared. He’s said “warm” about four times so far in this presser.
