Ravens’ Derrick Henry runs wild in win over Bills

ravens, bills

Derrick Henry racked up 199 yards on 24 carries and totaled two touchdowns as the host Baltimore Ravens torched the previously unbeaten Buffalo Bills 35-10 on Sunday night.

Henry took the Ravens’ first play from scrimmage 87 yards for a touchdown, marking the longest run in franchise history. He fell a yard shy of his seventh career 200-yard rushing game.

Lamar Jackson was 13-of-18 passing for 156 yards and two touchdowns to go along with 54 rushing yards and a score. His favorite receiver was running back Justice Hill (six catches, 78 yards, one TD).

Baltimore (2-2) won its second straight and improved to 21-3 in primetime home games under coach John Harbaugh.

Josh Allen completed 16 of 29 passes for 180 yards for the Bills (3-1). He was sacked three times, with Baltimore’s Kyle Van Noy registering his third consecutive two-sack game.

Henry’s big run came on a simple handoff behind the right tackle. He cut once to hit the hole and barreled downfield for an astounding first-play touchdown that fired up the home crowd.

Tyler Bass got the Bills on the board with a 50-yard field goal, but Baltimore’s second drive ended in a 5-yard TD catch for Henry, his first receiving score since 2019, on the first play of the second quarter.

Hill made it three Baltimore touchdowns in three possessions when he put the moves on his defender and caught an easy 19-yard touchdown with 7:34 left in the second. The Ravens still led 21-3 at halftime, having outgained the Bills 281-90.

In the third quarter, Allen scrambled right on a third-and-5 and — at the last moment before stepping out of bounds — chucked a pass to a wide-open Khalil Shakir for 52 yards. Ty Johnson ran left on the next play for a 3-yard touchdown.

On the Bills’ next drive, Buffalo tried a direct snap to receiver Curtis Samuel, who swept left to pitch the ball to Allen. But Van Noy stripped the ball when Allen attempted to throw, and Kyle Hamilton recovered the fumble for the Ravens.

Hill’s 17-yard catch-and-run set Jackson up for a 9-yard designed run to the right corner of the end zone, making it 28-10 with 2:45 left in the third.

Bass’ 48-yard field-goal try on the first play of the fourth quarter was wide left.

Henry nearly had himself another touchdown run on the ensuing drive, but Rasul Douglas batted the ball loose at the Buffalo 2-yard line and it bounced into the end zone. The Ravens fell on it, and veteran fullback Patrick Ricard was credited with his first touchdown of the season.
