Bills Beat Ravens 36-10 as Allen Sets Touchdown Record and Lamar Jackson Hurts Thumb
Photo: The Guardian USThe Buffalo Bills beat the Baltimore Ravens 36-10 in Week 8 on Sunday, and quarterback Josh Allen broke Jim Kelly's franchise record for career touchdown passes with Kelly in attendance. Allen, who threw his 259th career touchdown pass, also rushed for a score. Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson, playing his first game back in nearly a month, left after the first play. Coach Jesse Minter said Jackson needs surgery on his injured right thumb and will be placed on injured reserve, an injury that could potentially end his season. Backup Tyler Huntley was also injured, leaving Baltimore short at quarterback. The Ravens fell to 4-4. Bills coach Joe Brady's team took advantage of the Ravens' quarterback problems.
The left-leaning Guardian US covers the game inside a Sunday NFL roundup. Its headline leads with late collapses by the Cowboys and Chiefs, and its opening centers on Arizona's overtime win over Dallas, with Allen's record and the Ravens' injuries appearing lower down. It does flag in the headline that Jackson's season could be over. The right-leaning Washington Times writes only about this game and leads with Jackson's short return and the injuries to him and Huntley. It leaves out Allen's record in the material provided. Both sides report that Jackson and other Baltimore quarterbacks were hurt against Buffalo. They differ mainly in scope: broad league-wide results versus a tight focus on the Ravens' injuries. Independent outlets split the story, with ESPN on Jackson's surgery and Yahoo Sports on Allen's record.
