Henry, on the Ravens’ first offensive play of the night, broke open for a wild 87-yard touchdown run to put them up immediately. It marked the longest touchdown run in team history, and Henry’s third from at least 85 yards in his career. Henry caught a 5-yard touchdown pass on their next drive, too.
The Ravens took a 21-3 lead at halftime after completely shutting down Allen and the Bills, who managed just 90 team yards in the first 30 minutes.
The Ravens didn’t let up in the second half, either. They quickly pushed ahead to grab the 25-point win after Lamar Jackson and fullback Patrick Ricard found the end zone. That moved them to 2-2 on the season.
Josh Allen went 16-of-29 for 180 yards in the loss for Buffalo. James Cook added 39 rushing yards on nine carries, and Khalil Shakir had 62 receiving yards on four carries.
Jackson went 13-of-18 for 156 yards and threw two touchdowns. He ran in another touchdown and had 54 rushing yards on six carries. Henry finished with 199 yards on the ground and two total touchdowns. Justice Hill had 78 yards and a score on six catches, too.

Final: Ravens 35, Bills 10

Touchdown, Ravens
The Ravens fumbled into the end zone, but Patrick Ricard recovered it for the touchdown. Baltimore's lead is now 35-10.
The Bills tried a flea flicker, but it failed completely and resulted in a fumble recovery for the Ravens. Allen got hit hard after losing the ball, too, and he's now being looked at on the sidelines.
I have no idea how Josh Allen pulled this off, but it set up a short touchdown run from Ty Johnson on the very next play. What a ridiculous sequence for the Bills.
Baltimore will get the ball out of the break, too.

Bills stall out, again
Even after a delay of game (which came after a coaching mistake from John Harbaugh) gave the Bills a free first down and kept their drive alive, the Ravens got another stop and forced a fourth punt from Buffalo.
The Ravens will get the ball back now with 42 seconds before halftime.

Ravens fumble
That's the first mistake of the night for Baltimore. Lamar Jackson had the ball punched out, and the Bills picked up the fumble in what was a huge break for them ahead of the two minute warning.
They'll need to turn this into points now if they want to have a chance at a comeback in the second half.
.@BuffaloBills force the fumble and recover the ball!
Derrick Henry just picked up his second touchdown of the night. He caught a short 5-yard touchdown pass to open the second quarter, and the Ravens are suddenly up 14-3.
That was Henry's first touchdown catch since 2019.
He's at it again! 2 TDs on the night for @KingHenry_2 👑
Derrick Henry's 87-yard touchdown run was the longest rushing touchdown in Ravens history.
It was also Henry's third career rushing touchdown of at least 85 yards. Only two other players in NFL history have three or more rushing touchdowns of that length.

Ravens 7, Bills 3
Josh Allen got the Bills moving again, but their drive stalled out just past midfield. So they'll have to settle for a 50-yard field goal from Tyler Bass.
The Ravens' lead is now to four.

Derrick Henry scores again

Athletic director Arthur Johnson said "Our expectation is to compete for American Athletic Conference titles." The Owls were 9-25 in 34 games under Drayton.
