Ravens force 5 TOs, rout struggling Packers 23-0 - purplefaithful - 11-20-2017
GREEN BAY, Wis. — The Baltimore Ravens forced five turnovers in their third shutout of the season, blanking the Green Bay Packers 23-0 Sunday.
Baltimore last accomplished the feat when the Ray Lewis-led defense had four shutouts for the Super Bowl-winning team in 2000. Jimmy Smith, Eric Weddle and Marlon Humphrey each picked off passes for Baltimore (5-5), which led the NFL in interceptions entering the weekend.
But a problematic offense couldn't generate a touchdown drive until Joe Flacco's perfect deep ball to Mike Wallace over two defenders for a 13-point lead nearly two minutes into the third quarter. Flacco threw for 183 yards, going 22 of 28 with an interception.
His lone touchdown pass was still enough of a cushion against a Packers team struggling without two-time MVP quarterback Aaron Rodgers, out with a broken collarbone.
The Packers were last shut out on Nov. 19, 2006, when then-starter Brett Favre left with an elbow injury in the first half of a 35-0 loss to New England. Rodgers, then in his second year in the league, finished off that loss in relief.

Packer fan forums are in full bunker mode. Already conceding the Browns their first win.

This was a dagger in the Packers "hope" that Rodgers would be able to come back and save the season. The earliest he could return would be the Panthers game in Week 15... currently the Packers are 5-5.
Here is there upcoming schedule...
@ Pittsburgh
Tampa Bay
@ Cleveland
Honestly, I have a hard time finding a win there. I was joking around with one of my buddies two weeks ago (who is a Packers fan) that the Cleveland game doesn't look like a sure win. He scoffed at the time... now... he's in full agreement. LOL
