The Baltimore Ravens have fallen from 4-1 to 4-3, thanks to a pair of division games in which a 10-0 halftime lead against the Browns became a loss and a 13-0 halftime lead against the Bengals became a loss.
The two games, which have made the Ravens 0-2 in the AFC North for the first time since 2007, have contributed to a strange statistical trend for Baltimore.
Via NBC Sports research, the Ravens have a scoring differential of +65 in the first half of games. That’s the highest margin in the league. In the second half of games, Baltimore’s scoring differential is -63. That’s the worst in the league.
The 35-13 final score against Cincinnati made the Ravens the [first team in 76 years](https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/ravens-second-half-meltdown-was-unlike-any-choke-the-nfl-has-seen-in-more-than-75-years) to be winning by 13 or more at halftime and to lose by 20 or more.
The situation adds even more pressure when the Ravens return to Buffalo. Where, in Week 1 of the 2025 season, Baltimore led by 15 with 11:49 to play and lost, 41-40.
