Ravens: Grinding it
The Ravens didn't exactly get off to an auspicious start, going three and out on their first possession before falling behind on a touchdown pass from Drew Brees to tight end Jimmy Graham, but their second possession was much more impressive.
They ran right at the Saints and moved the ball down the field to set up a nice third-down throw to rookie Ed Dickson on a tight-end delay for Dickson's first NFL TD.
Ravens 7, Saints 7. The Ravens defense has stopped the Saints quickly on two of three New Orleans possessions, which is a pretty good sign, but not as good as the ability of Ray Rice and Willis McGahee to move the chains on the ground. That shortens the game and keeps Brees off the field, which should be Job One.
