In the depths of Baltimore-night, the Detroit Lions strode forth and laid low the proud Baltimore Ravens by the loathsome total of 38-30.
Their engines of war: a thunderous ground assault (224 rushing yards) and a wicked harrying of the Raven’s master-mind, Lamar Jackson, sacked seven times.
In the final storm, with scoreboard trembling at 31-24, Detroit dared a fourth-and-two gamble, seized by youth’s might, and it yielded the dagger: a 31-yard plunge to seal the night.
Thus did the under-kings triumph in the raven-cloaked city, and the night echoed with their roar.
