Colts vs. Ravens: Key Halftime Stats for the Ravens

Though this game had many fans remembering back to a loss versus the winless Dolphins a few years ago, the Ravens have shown up today and assured their fanbase that history would not be repeating itself. 

A tune-up for a Sunday night showdown in San Diego, the Ravens made sure to not look past the former Baltimore franchise and have taken care of business at home, where they are yet to lose this season.

Let's take a look at some key stats from the first half.

Zero turnovers so far in this game means both teams have at least played smart football. QB Joe Flacco has been fumble-prone all season, but his offensive line is playing up to their full potential and giving No. 5 plenty of time in the pocket. If that number stays at zero, Baltimore should have no trouble in the second half. 

A balanced attack is important versus any opponent. Last week, it was Ray Rice and Ricky Williams that carried the load, but I praise Cam Cameron for putting the ball back in Flacco's hands a bit more. You want your quarterback to stay confident through the end of the season. A big game against a winless team is just what the doctor ordered.

Two penalties for 20 yards on the day means the Ravens aren't shooting themselves in the foot. There is a lot of bad blood in this rivalry, and the Ravens want this win badly. Whenever that happens, players tend to get a bit more hotheaded and make mistakes. 

4-of-6

Ravens have been able to extend drives well on third down, going 4-of-6 on conversions. Keeping the defense off the field and well-rested is crucial for this team in the last quarter of the season.
