Madden 25 Week 3 NFL Simulation

Houston Texans @ Baltimore Ravens

Both teams barely squeaked out Week 2 wins, and now Houston and Baltimore enter Week 3 looking to prove that they can still be top teams in the AFC.

Through the first 25 minutes of the game, Houston’s defense held the Ravens to just 36 yards of total offense and one first down. That was where the good for the Texans would stop.

Joe Flacco hit Torrey Smith for a 68-yard touchdown pass with four minutes left in the half to get the Ravens on the board. Then, on Houston’s very first play from scrimmage on the ensuing drive, Matt Schaub threw a pass that was picked off by Jimmy Smith and returned 36 yards for a Baltimore touchdown.

The Ravens built a 35-10 second half lead before the Texans scored 10 points in the final 5:48 to cut the lead to 35-20.

Flacco finished 32-of-47 for 311 yards and three touchdowns. Schaub threw two touchdowns and four interceptions.
