In a game where not many analysts were picking the road team http://www.ravensauthorizedshops.com/authentic-john-brown-jersey , the Baltimore Ravens shocked the masses with their stunning victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers. After leading by as many as 14 points, the Ravens went into the half tied. All the momentum was leaning in favor of Pittsburgh, but like the previous three games, Baltimore’s defense tightened up in the second half. Below are six takeaways from the Ravens’ impressive 26-14 victory over the Steelers.1. Questionable coaching decisions did not haunt the RavensHead coach John Harbaugh has a reputation for being an overly aggressive coach, but that was not the case on Sunday night. After Pittsburgh had tied the game 14-14, Baltimore had a difficult decision to make. Fourth-and-inches on their 45-yard line, and uncharacteristically, Harbaugh punted the football. Given the way the momentum shifted, this may have been the incorrect decision. However, it was evident Baltimore wanted the second quarter to end as quick as possible, and this strategy worked well.The other questionable decision came late in the fourth quarter. The Ravens had a narrow six-point lead with the ball deep in Pittsburgh’s territory. There was a little under four minutes left, and Baltimore opted to throw the ball on second and third down, which led to only 11 seconds being taken off the clock. This gave the Steelers extra time to attempt a comeback as they were down by nine points with three minutes and 37 seconds left. Fortunately for Baltimore, Ben Roethlisberger threw an interception. 2. Pay that man his moneyMuch of the talk regarding impending free agents has been centered around inside linebacker C.J. Mosley Tavon Young Jersey , but John Brown is proving to be worth much more than his one-year deal. Brown has been a shining star through four games, and he could command a hefty price on the open market following this season. He was a huge factor in Sunday night’s victory as he stretched the field and made a couple of big-time receptions, including a 71-yard catch. 3. Let’s get trickyAfter Baltimore’s collapse in week two against the Bengals, Marty Mornhinweg has dialed up two ‘masterful’ game plans. Last week, he completely took away Von Miller. On Sunday night, Mornhinweg utilized a variety of unique play designs and aggressive concepts to allow his playmakers to get open. The play of the night was the trick play involving an unbalanced line, where Maxx Williams was lined up next to Matt Skura. Williams, because he was lined up off the line of scrimmage, was an eligible receiver, and he was wide open to pick up the first down. It was a great night for the offense as they totaled 26 points, but they also left points on the board. Alex Collins fumbled the ball in the red zone, while Flacco was unable to connect with Michael Crabtree on a play where he would have likely scored. 4. Bend, but don’t breakBaltimore’s defense was dominant for much of the game, specifically in the second half. Remarkably Terrell Suggs Jersey , they have not allowed a touchdown in the final two-quarters of any game in the 2018 regular season. Don Martindale’s ability to adjust and shut down opposing offenses has been remarkable. The pass rush was not as active as Wink would have hoped, but the secondary played well. The Steelers did not have a receiver break the 70-yard mark, while they totaled less than 20 total rushing yards. 5. Don’t forget about meBrandon Carr will likely lose his starting spot next week as Jimmy Smith will return from his four-game suspension. However, Carr was spectacular under the bright lights. He recorded two pass breakups, but his performance was much better than the stats may suggest. Carr is a savvy veteran, who displayed great patience on several plays, including a clutch end zone pass breakup on JuJu Smith-Schuster. Baltimore’s general manager Ozzie Newsome made it his mission in the offseason to improve the wide receiver room. He signed three veteran free agents, and John Brown has been the biggest difference maker. Due to his big-play ability, Brown has received a majority of the attention, but Willie Snead has made several clutch plays through the first four games of the season. Snead’s ability to work from the slot and beat man-coverage has been a key part of Baltimore’s success, specifically on third down. 6. This might be a different Joe FlaccoThroughout training camp and the preseason, Flacco has looked like a man on a mission. Whether it was the team selecting Lamar Jackson in the first round or not, he is a different quarterback this season. Although he struggled against the Bengals, Flacco has put together one of his best four-game stretches in recent memory. If he continues this pace Authentic Ronnie Stanley Jersey , he will hit the 5,000 yard mark for the first time in his career and the 4,000 yard mark for only the second time. Flacco’s decision-making has dramatically improved, and he is spreading the ball around as a total of 11 different players caught passes on Sunday night.Ravens officially activate Jimmy Smith, waive CB Darious Williams As expected, the Baltimore Ravens have moved cornerback Jimmy Smith to the active roster, while they have waived Darious Williams.Smith will rejoin a highly ranked secondary, and although he is not expected to start against the Browns, he will likely be in rotation with Brandon Carr and Marlon Humphrey on the outside. The Ravens still have five cornerbacks on the active roster, but Anthony Averett is dealing with a hamstring injury. Maurice Canady is on injured reserve, but he is expected to be one of two players who can return later this season. Although Smith has not played in a regular season game since last season, he will likely see extended action as the Ravens will only have four healthy cornerbacks. The other interesting aspect of this move is Baltimore elected to keep five inside linebackers instead six cornerbacks. Despite how well the secondary, specifically the cornerbacks have played, adding Jimmy Smith will only improve this unit. He is coming off of one of his best seasons to date even though he ended up on injured reserve after week 13. Smith recorded nine pass breakups Youth Joe Flacco Jersey , three interceptions, including a pick-six, and 28 combined tackles. He was named Pro Football Focus’ mid-season All-Pro team. As for Darious Williams, it was a surprise to see him make the initial 53-man roster, but Smith’s suspension and Maurice Canady’s lingering injury forced Baltimore’s hand. He was inconsistent during the preseason as he allowed several ‘explosive plays.’ However, Williams did show an adept ability in press-coverage, and he could contribute on special teams. Williams did not play a single defensive snap in three games, but he did appear on 26 special team snaps. He was only inactive in week one due to Baltimore’s depth at cornerback, but injuries forced him to be active.If Williams clears waivers, then the Ravens could sign him to their practice squad with a corresponding move. Their practice squad is currently at full capacity.
