It's definitely not an understatement that Baltimore's defense could be the toughest one we see all year. You could see the Linebackers were in Andy's throwing lanes all day, even with the pressure being put on him.
Half of Andy's interceptions on Sunday would not have happened had the Ravens not clogged the middle of the field so soundly.
When you have a weak Oline, the idea is quick slants and curl routes that take very little time and take advantage of man coverage.
Baltimore was able to stay in zone coverage while also providing a fierce pass rush.
I don't think we'll encounter that lethal combination of coverage and pressure much this year.
That gives me hope that Andy can rebound and have a solid day against Houston. They aren't nearly as good a cover team as Baltimore is. Their pass rush may be as potent, but Dalton will likely have more passes open that he can take advantage of to slow the pass rush down.
One can hope, anyway.
