JK Dobbins scores first NFL touchdown (Video)

JK Dobbins capped off a 99-yard drive for the Ravens
Dobbins will split time with Mark Ingram in the Baltimore backfield this year, making their rushing attack even scarier given the abilities of Lamar Jackson. At Ohio State, Dobbins finally received his chance last season and made the most of it, securing his status as one of the best backs in the 2020 NFL Draft class. From the Buckeyes to being coaches by the brother of their arch-rival in John Harbaugh, Dobbins is already making an impact in his NFL debut.
The Buckeyes product was a bowling ball on said play, bouncing to the outside and hitting the pylon.
Can the Ravens repeat as AFC North champs?
The Ravens are expected to face more of a challenge in their division this season, especially with the Browns’ improved squad and the return of Ben Roethlisberger for the Pittsburgh Steelers. Baltimore got rid of Earl Thomas just before the start of the regular season thanks to his self-created locker room drama, meaning they now face a hole in their secondary.
Nonetheless, Baltimore is the greatest challenge to Kansas City in the AFC, and it’s not all that close. The Ravens went 14-2 just last season and are arguably better offensively than that 2019 team, as they feature a more competent rushing attack that doesn’t rely so heavily on Lamar Jackson. Dobbins plays a major role in that sense, and so far the offensive fit is excellent.
