NFL Preseason Week 2 Recap: Baltimore Ravens 13, Atlanta Falcons 12

The Baltimore Ravens and Atlanta Falcons rested their key starters for a second straight game, and thus, we were treated to a true preseason affair.

Deep passes were the name of the game in this preseason Week 2 contest, with Josh Johnson, Emory Jones, Taylor Heinicke and John Paddock each completing a 20-plus-yard throw (first-round quarterback Michael Penix Jr. did not play).

Points were still hard to come by. The Ravens took the game by a 13-12 scoreline after the Falcons failed to punch in a game-winning two-point conversion with less than 40 seconds remaining.

PLAYER OF THE GAME

Falcons cornerback Natrone Brooks made flashy tackle after tackle, but perhaps even better was wide receiver Chris Blair. All four of his receptions went for first downs, and 39 of his 91 receiving yards came after the catch.

The fourth-year veteran finished with 6.07 yards per route run — a game-high figure and the best of any receiver to run 15 or more routes this preseason (prior to the end of Week 2).
