Texans Rout Injured Ravens 44-10 in Historic Road Victory

The Houston Texans secured a dominant 44-10 road victory over the Baltimore Ravens, marking their first win in Baltimore and their second consecutive victory after an initial 0-3 start. Quarterback C.J. Stroud delivered an efficient performance, completing 23 of 27 passes for 244 yards and four touchdowns before being rested in the fourth quarter. The Ravens were significantly weakened by injuries, missing key players including quarterback Lamar Jackson and several defensive standouts, which contributed to the Texans' offensive success and defensive dominance, including two interceptions by Jalen Pitre. Houston scored on its first eight possessions and outgained Baltimore 417-207, while the Ravens struggled offensively with three interceptions thrown by Cooper Rush. Despite the easy win, Stroud acknowledged that the Ravens would become more competitive once their starters return. This victory ended a scoring drought for Houston against Baltimore and is notable given that the Texans had lost their previous six games to the Ravens without scoring an offensive touchdown.
