Zay Flowers trudged off the field with his helmet off, not quite able to fathom losing a fumble for a second straight possession. He put his helmet back on, removed it once more to watch the replay on the Jumbotron, and looked away.
Then he reached the bench, raised his helmet to slam it down before simply setting it down in resignation.
The fumble didn't even belong to him, after all; he had never possessed the football. The "credit" for the fumble went to Cooper Rush , the backup quarterback filling in for the injured Lamar Jackson , even though the handoff looked clean.
But perhaps that's the issue with the Ravens . There are so many different aspects that deserve credit -- or blame -- for the 1-5 start, tied for the franchise's worst ever through six games, after a 17-3 loss
