Week 9 · 2025–26 season
Ravens
W 28-6 at Dolphins · Oct 30, 2025
Misery Index · Euphoric
Ravens fans toasting L.Jackson's return while quietly noting the pass rush still can't scare anyone.
The emotional rollercoaster
Fan misery across the game window. Up is worse.
What happened
A.Gilman's forced fumble on the opening drive set the tone, and L.Jackson's 2-yard touchdown to M.Andrews — set up by a 35-yard strike to I.Likely — meant this one was effectively decided before halftime. Miami quit, Baltimore obliged, and the fanbase finally got to exhale after weeks of squinting at the standings. The bigger question lingering past the celebration: was this a turning point, or just Miami being Miami?
