Derrick Henry Rips Ravens' Goal-Line Failures After Loss to Rams, 'It Pisses Me Off'

Derrick Henry was not happy the Baltimore Ravens failed to score near the goal line during Sunday's 17-3 loss to the Los Angeles Rams.

"You gotta get it in, and we've had two instances where we have not gotten it in," he told reporters. "It pisses me off, but can't do nothing about it now."

Baltimore's biggest failure came on its final possession of the first half.

It reached the Rams' 1-yard line behind Henry's running but decided to change things up and go with two straight tush-push attempts with tight end Mark Andrews under center. Los Angeles stuffed both attempts in a confusing sequence that may have gone differently had the Ravens given their star running back the ball.

Ravens' Tush Push Fail 🤦‍♂️

By the time they did give him the ball on the fourth down, it was obvious to almost everyone on the field what was about to happen. And the Rams stuffed him and maintained the tie heading into intermission.

Baltimore also reached the Rams' 7-yard line during the fourth quarter as they were attempting to come back only for Tyler Huntley to take a sack and then throw an interception.

The AFC North team was facing an uphill battle with star quarterback Lamar Jackson sidelined by injury, and failing to take advantage of its scoring opportunities was not a formula for a surprise victory. 

Henry was one of the only bright spots with 122 rushing yards, but he didn't find the end zone and was just a footnote in yet another disappointing performance for the Ravens.

They are now 1-5 on the season and four losses behind the 4-1 Pittsburgh Steelers in the division. The outlook figures to improve when Jackson returns, but the team can only take so many losses to remain a factor in the playoff race.

And that loss number is starting to get fairly high early in the season.
