NFL Fans Call Ravens 'Done' As Texans Loss Drops Team to 1-4 amid Lamar Jackson Injury

The Baltimore Ravens were Super Bowl contenders heading into the 2025 season. Right now, even reaching the postseason is starting to look like a long shot.

The Houston Texans dismantled a beat-up Ravens team on Sunday, 44-10, moving Baltimore to a shocking 1-4 record on the season.

Backup quarterback Cooper Rush threw three interceptions in relief of the injured Lamar Jackson, running back Derrick Henry was held to just 33 yards and a touchdown on the ground and the short-handed Baltimore defense allowed C.J. Stroud to throw for 244 yards and four touchdowns.

Given how much the Houston offense had struggled coming into the game, that last stat may be the most stunning of all. And it had fans and pundits alike writing Baltimore's obituary:

There is a huge caveat in all of this, and it is that the Ravens have been absolutely decimated by injuries on the season. Just look at this injury report coming into today:

Overcoming the Jackson injury alone would be difficult, given how dynamic he is. But the Ravens are missing other hugely impactful players on both sides of the ball.

There are losses, though, and then there are embarrassments, and Sunday was the latter. Injuries are not an excuse to get absolutely shellacked, especially against an offense that has been pretty mediocre for large stretches of the season.

The Ravens have a major uphill climb to return to contender status. Right now, the team just needs to find a way to get a single win.
