Ravens Collapse Mirrors Past Demons in New Era Home Opener

The Ravens blew an 11-point lead late in the second quarter and were outscored 18-3 in the second half, including 15-0 in the fourth, as the Saints stunned Baltimore 24-17 in Jesse Minter’s home debut. A controversial 1-yard touchdown run by Tyler Shough with 1:28 left sealed the win, drawing pundit scrutiny of the defense, late-game decision‑making, and a third‑and‑1 deep shot that refocused questions on play-calling and run usage. Rashod Bateman was a bright spot with 7 catches for 88 yards, and penalties and special-teams miscues contributed to the loss. Baltimore now tunes up for a Rio de Janeiro game vs. the Cowboys amid field‑surface concerns.

Eagles' Bold Calls and Packers' Struggles Highlight Critical Game Moments

In a game where the Packers lost 10-7 to the Eagles, their coach Matt LaFleur's decision to punt on fourth-and-11 instead of attempting a 58-yard field goal in the fourth quarter backfired, as the punt resulted in poor field position and the Eagles scored the winning touchdown on the next drive. Analytics suggest attempting the field goal would have been a better choice, potentially tying the game or giving the Packers a chance to win.
