Baltimore Ravens, thanks to a field goal and a missed Redskins extra point, are up 10-6 at the end of the first half.

The Ravens have been able to find holes in the Redskins’ run defense, chewing up 76 yards on just 13 carries. 

Kirk Cousins has struggled a bit in the first half, but he seemed to get a bit more comfortable on the Redskins’ second to last drive of the half. Cousins threw for 40 yards, completing five of his eight pass attempts, primarily to his tight ends, Jordan Reed (38 yards in first half) and Vernon Davis (9 yards). That Redskins’ drive ended on a 4th and one attempt on the Ravens’ 20 yard line. 



In the next possession, kicker Dustin Hopkins missed a 56-yard field goal, kicking it directly into the wind.

Josh Norman, who exited the game late in the first quarter, returned to the sidelines with a right hand injury. He did not play in the second quarter.
