The Ravens went up 10-0 on the ensuing drive and the Texans were able to get a safety in the second quarter to make it a one-score game.

While trying to score on the following drive after the safety, the Texans failed to convert on 4th & goal, which proved to be the best chance Houston had of scoring on offense all day.

Ravens running back Derrick Henry ran for 147 yards and a touchdown, breaking the Baltimore franchise record. Lamar Jackson also ran for a touchdown and became the best quarterback for rushing yards all time.

The Texans return for Week 18 against the Tennessee Titans at Nissan Stadium.
