For weeks, many casted doubt on the Baltimore Ravens’ new-look offense. It took a while, but the Lamar Jackson-led Ravens offense managed to put together a prolific performance in Week 4, as the group led the way in Baltimore’s 28-3 road win over the Cleveland Browns.

Even as the Ravens were without the likes of Ronnie Stanley (ankle) and Odell Beckham Jr. (ankle) due to their respective injuries, the current AFC North leaders had their way against a Browns defense that entered Sunday leading the NFL in points per game allowed (10.7). From the four touchdown drives to the 5.4 yards per play average, Baltimore regularly moved the ball downfield with ease against Cleveland.

While the Ravens offense orchestrated a well-rounded showing in Week 4, Jackson does not believe that the group made a statement. The two-time Pro Bowler instead has his sights set on working with the unit to continue to improve by the week.

"No, not really," Jackson said during his postgame press conference. "There’s still room to grow for us. We’re still building. We had mishaps on the field. We had a fumble that gave the ball back to the defense. … I feel like we left points on the board. Every week we’ve been playing, I felt like we’ve been leaving points on the board [because] of little miscommunications and mishaps, but we just need to keep focusing, keep getting better."

The Ravens now boast a 24.8 points per game mark, which is up from last year’s average (20.6).

Baltimore will meet a Pittsburgh Steelers defense in Week 5 that holds a 25.0 points per game allowed average this season.
