The Baltimore Ravens secured a solid 31-17 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 9 of the 2026 season, maintaining their momentum in the playoff chase. With both teams vying for crucial positioning, the Ravens delivered a strong performance that kept them firmly in the hunt for a top seed. Lamar Jackson showcased his dual-threat capabilities, throwing for 228 yards and a touchdown, while also contributing to the ground game. Zach Charbonnet highlighted the Jaguars' efforts with a powerful 122 rushing yards, but it wasn't enough to shift the momentum. Rashod Bateman was Jackson's go-to target, finishing with 60 receiving yards as the Ravens' offense executed effectively throughout the game. Defensively, the Ravens made key plays that shifted the tide, including an interception by Roquan Smith that halted a promising Jaguars drive. Although Zion Young recorded a half-sack, it was the overall pressure applied by the Ravens' defense that kept Jacksonville off balance. The turning point came in the second quarter when Baltimore scored back-to-back touchdowns, establishing a lead they would not relinquish.
