Ravens’ opportunistic secondary

The Ravens have forced at least two turnovers in each of the last four games, scoring five defensive touchdowns this season. Marcus Peters has two pick-sixes in four games and Marlon Humphrey has returned two fumbles for scores.

The Ravens’ secondary is very opportunistic and their defenders consistently make plays on the ball. If Jared Goff struggles with his accuracy and decision-making, it’s going to be a long night. The Ravens are going to make him pay by deflecting passes and creating turnovers.

Baltimore has allowed a passer rating of just 79.5 this season, third-best in the league, and has picked off nine passes, which is tied for seventh. Goff has to be on top of his game Monday night and for the receivers, ball security is crucial. The Ravens have recovered seven of the eight fumbles they’ve forced.
