Ravens Defy Overtime Norms to Beat Falcons 30-23
The Baltimore Ravens defeated the Atlanta Falcons 30-23 in overtime on Sunday, securing sole possession of first place in the AFC North. Backup quarterback Tyler Huntley led a late comeback after starter Lamar Jackson missed the game with an ankle injury. The decisive factor was an unconventional overtime strategy by Ravens coach Jesse Minter, who chose to receive the ball first to control the clock and neutralize Atlanta's running game. This allowed safety Kyle Hamilton to intercept a pass from backup quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, sealing the victory.
