THE BALTIMORE RAVENS claimed their third-straight win with a 27-13 victory against the New Orleans Saints.

The momentum was all with the visitors early, as Baltimore found the end zone twice in the first half while restricting the Saints to a lone field goal.
Both offences stalled after the break with each team only managing a field goal to make for a 17-6 score line headed into the fourth quarter.
Any hope New Orleans had of pulling off a late comeback was then quickly put to bed when a Justin Tucker field goal was followed by Drake’s second touchdown of the day.
A late touchdown pass to Juwan Johnson was the only highlight of the game for Saints quarterback Andy Dalton, who also threw an interception in the 14-point defeat.
