As they methodically charged down the field during a statement-sending 13-play drive that began at their own five-yard line, it ultimately became clear that Baltimore’s offense would only be presented with one luxurious question: touchdown or field goal? Already in the endzone — and therefore close enough to taste touchdown No. 10 of the season — Rashod Bateman offered a resounding answer, speeding into an uncovered middle-of-the-field void before carefully securing a 15-yard score. Something of a WR1, given the absence of the Ravens’ Pro Bowl pass-catcher, Bateman stepped right in, registering a two-catch, 24-yard, one-touchdown contribution on Jan. 11, 2025, as Baltimore overwhelmed the Pittsburgh Steelers for a 28-14 triumph.
