Allen has struggled historically against the Ravens defense across six career matchups (including playoffs). His completion percentage averages just 59.3%, passing yards average 211 with 6.06 yards-per-attempt, and passer rating of 82.7. He's been particularly contained as a runner, held to 30 yards or less on the ground in all but one game (70 yards in 2022). Despite these trends, Allen's most recent outing against Baltimore in Week 1 last season showed a dramatic shift: after a quiet first three quarters (18-of-26, 143 yards, 1 TD), he erupted in the fourth quarter (15-of-20, 251 yards, 3 TDs total) in Buffalo's 41-40 comeback victory, finishing with 394 passing yards. Key Ravens defenders Roquan Smith, Kyle Hamilton, and Marlon Humphrey remain in place.
