Seeing the Buffalo Bills with 41 points on the scoreboard against the Ravens in Week 1 made All-Pro safety Kyle Hamilton feel ill.
He never expected Baltimore to give up that many points in the season opener, but it happened, and it was hard for him to accept.
"First and foremost, the offense put up 40 points," Hamilton said. "There is no way that we should be in that position as a defense. I don't know. We just need to figure out how to win games. We are winning them for 45 minutes, but you have to win for 60 minutes."
The Ravens hoped to get off to a fast start defensively in 2025 but clearly have work to do. Josh Allen passed for 394 yards and two touchdowns while completing 33 of 46 passes. On their final five possessions, the Bills scored three touchdowns and a field goal and rallied from a 15-point deficit with 22 points in the fourth quarter.
"We talked about it all offseason, how we struggled last season at the beginning," Hamilton said. "\[We said\], 'It's a new year, and it's a new team,' and then we come out here and do that.
"I don't know if there is something mentally that we have to get over or if there is a mental block, but I looked up at the scoreboard when they were about to kick the field goal, and it said they had 400 passing yards or something. I'm about to throw up on the field."
