The Baltimore Ravens’ record-breaking streak of consecutive wins came to an end on Saturday, February 15th, with a 29-28 loss to the San Antonio Commanders. The Ravens had been on a tear, winning their last nine games in a row, the longest streak in the Alliance of American Football’s (AAF) short history.
The Commanders, who had lost their last two games, were determined to put an end to the Ravens’ streak. They jumped out to an early lead, scoring two touchdowns in the first quarter and taking a 14-0 lead into the second quarter. The Ravens responded with two touchdowns of their own, and the teams went into halftime tied at 14-14.
The Commanders continued to dominate in the second half, scoring two more touchdowns and taking a 29-14 lead into the fourth quarter. The Ravens mounted a furious comeback in the fourth quarter, scoring two touchdowns and bringing the score to 29-28. However, the Commanders managed to hold on for the win.
The loss was a bitter pill to swallow for the Ravens, who had been on such a hot streak. However, they can take solace in the fact that their nine-game winning streak was the longest in AAF history. The Ravens will now look to regroup and start another winning streak as they continue their quest for an AAF championship.
The Commanders, meanwhile, will look to build on this victory and continue their own push for a championship. With the win, they have improved their record to 5-3 and remain in contention for a playoff spot.
The AAF season is still young, and there is plenty of football left to be played. Both the Ravens and Commanders will look to use this game as a springboard for success in the coming weeks.
