Elise Carter: "Lamar Jackson threw 6 touchdowns and 587 yards on a Pittsburgh defense that managed 40 rushing yards all game—at 1-4, the Steelers didn't have an answer for anything Baltimore wanted to do." Luca Santana: "Baltimore's numbers this season—a scoring margin that adjusts for competition at plus-16, a win probability model showing 73% expected wins—say this wasn't an upset; it was a team playing exactly to its level against one that's been historically bad on defense. Pittsburgh has given up 16 points per game more than league average strength-of-schedule accounts for, and it showed."

Baltimore put it on Pittsburgh 43-10 in a game that looked settled early. Lamar Jackson went 30 of 47 for 587 yards and 6 touchdowns while Duce Robinson hauled in 11 catches for 253 yards and 2 scores, and neither had to work especially hard—the Ravens put up 587 total yards to Pittsburgh's 128 and never needed to hand the ball off once. The Steelers managed 88 passing yards and 40 on the ground, and the 33-point margin is the kind of afternoon that tends to get people talking about whether this thing can be fixed.
