Wide Receiver: Brandon Marshall (vs. Baltimore Ravens)

Quote the Baltimore Ravens: What happened to that 3-0 start this season? Coming off a disappointing 5-11 showing a year ago. John Harbaugh’s team looked like it was on the mend with three-straight wins to open the year.

But now the Ravens are in the midst of a three-game losing streak. The latest defeat was courtesy of a 27-23 setback to the New York Giants at MetLife Stadium in which Odell Beckham Jr. lit up the Baltimore secondary.

Guess who is back on the same field on Sunday? Yes, the Ravens return to the Meadowlands seven days later and this time they face new Jets starting quarterback Geno Smith. He relieves the struggling Ryan Fitzpatrick, who has served up five scores and 11 interceptions in six appearances in 2016. To make matters worse, the team is in the midst of four-game losing streak. Todd Bowles’ club has been limited to 17 points or less in each of those contests.

With Eric Decker unavailable, Brandon Marshall and Quincy Enunwa will be the focus for Smith. The former ranks second on the team with 27 catches, but leads the Jets with 433 receiving yards (16.0 average) and has scored twice. The Ravens suspect defense will again have their hands full with a “New York” wide receiver.
