Ravens responded again under pressure to improve to 4-1 despite injuries

Baltimore Ravens coach Jesse Minter emphasized the team's ability to perform when it matters most after leading them to a 30-23 victory over Atlanta. Quarterback Tyler Huntley guided the Ravens through crucial drives in the final minutes, tying the game and securing the win while their injured star quarterback Lamar Jackson was sidelined.

Minter noted that confidence is gained by overcoming challenges together. Since their previous loss to New Orleans, the Ravens have won three consecutive games, including a last-second victory over Dallas and Sunday's thriller against the Falcons. Despite facing two AFC North opponents next, the team would like Jackson back soon, though his return remains uncertain.

Huntley has shown he can perform well under pressure, leading the team to victory in both of his starts last season. The offensive balance remained strong, with Baltimore rushing for 208 yards and Huntley passing for 201 yards. However, the defense struggled in third-and-long situations, giving Atlanta opportunities to extend their lead.

Minter expressed disappointment with the defensive performance, especially in key moments. Despite some dropped passes and fumbles, tight end Mark Andrews was singled out for his missed opportunities. Offensive tackle Ronnie Stanley praised Huntley's performance, calling it "a big blur." The Ravens aim to continue their strong away record and look forward to facing Cleveland and Cincinnati next.
