The Baltimore Ravens dominated the New Orleans Saints with a decisive 35-7 victory in Week 2 of the 2026 season. This matchup was crucial for both teams as they aimed to establish early momentum in the season, but it was the Ravens who emerged as the clear frontrunners in this contest. Lamar Jackson was the standout performer for Baltimore, throwing for 166 yards and two touchdowns, showcasing his ability to lead the offense effectively. Zay Flowers was his top target, racking up 93 receiving yards, while the Ravens' ground game kept pressure on the Saints’ defense, solidifying their scoring opportunities. On the other side, Travis Etienne Jr. put together a commendable performance with 99 rushing yards, but it wasn’t enough to mount a comeback. Defensively, the Ravens were relentless, with Roquan Smith registering a sack that disrupted the Saints' rhythm. The turning point came early in the second half when Baltimore scored back-to-back touchdowns, extending their lead to 28-0. This proved insurmountable for New Orleans, as their offense struggled to find a rhythm against the aggressive Ravens defense, leading to the decisive final score.
