John Harbaugh raves about Derrick Henry, Tyler Huntley
On Saturday night, Baltimore Ravens retained their playoff hopes alive with an impressive road win over the Green Bay Packers in prime time. Both teams were without their starting quarterbacks in this matchup, with Jordan Love and Lamar Jackson sidelined with injuries, so it should come as no surprise that the Ravens relied heavily on their star quarterback. Derrick Henry to initiate much of the offense in this one.
To say Henry held up his end of the bargain would be an understatement, as the star rushed for 216 yards and four touchdowns on 36 carries.
After the game, the Ravens head coach John Harbaugh had blunt answer to Henry’s great game at Lambeau Field.
“It was one of the best performances I’ve ever seen,” Harbaugh said, per ESPN’s Jamison Hensley on X, formerly Twitter.
Harbaugh also had high praise for the quarterback Tyler Huntleywho started in place of Jackson and played efficient football, completing 16 of his 20 attempts for 107 yards.
“He couldn’t have been better. I just thought some clutch plays, that’s the kind of play you have to make. I see Tyler every day at practice, so I’m not surprised,” Harbaugh said, per Hensley.
The Ravens are now 8-8 on the season and will be hoping the Cleveland Browns can pull off a turnaround against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday afternoon. If that happens, the Ravens will have a winner-takes-all game against the Steelers next week, with the winner emerging as AFC North champions and earning a home field goal in the process.
Either way, the kickoff time for that game has yet to be announced, as the league waits to see which Week 18 games they want to slot into prime time.
