The Baltimore Ravens moved to 10-3 on the year with a 37-31 overtime win over the Los Angeles Rams in Week 14.

A blown coverage helped the Ravens open up a 7-3 lead, but the Rams answered back on a six-yard catch by Cooper Kupp from Matthew Stafford.

Another Rams error in coverage allowed Odell Beckham Jr. to get open for a 46-yard touchdown pass from Lamar Jackson before Los Angeles went back on top 17-14 on a seven-yard pass to tight end Davis Allen.

Kickers Lucas Havrisik and Justin Tucker then traded field goals to make it 20-17 at the half.

The Rams held a 28-23 late lead before Lamar Jackson capped an impressive drive by finding Zay Flowers on a 21-yard touchdown to go up 31-28. Stafford closed regulation by leading the Rams down the field for the game-tying field goal.

Backup punt returner Tylan Wallace sealed the contest in overtime with a 76-yard punt return for a touchdown.

Offensive spotlight: The Ravens' offense was out of sync for much of the game, with their first two touchdowns coming via blown coverages. Lamar Jackson broke through on the Ravens' final drive of regulation, though, making plays with his arm and legs, including finding Zay Flowers for a 21-yard score.

Defensive spotlight: The Ravens, who lead the league in sacks, registered only two in this game, but they still forced negative plays. Linebacker Roquan Smith made a pair of tackles for loss, as did edge defender Kyle Van Noy.

Rookie spotlight: The Rams' rookie pass-catchers continue to impress. Wide receiver Puka Nacua caught five passes for 84 yards, though he did have a particularly bad drop where he turned upfield before pulling the ball in. The surprise star of the show was rookie tight end Davis Allen, who caught four passes for 50 yards and a touchdown.

For the Ravens, Zay Flowers saw more looks downfield, turning 10 targets into six receptions for 60 yards and a touchdown.
