The grades and snap counts are in from the Ravens' 34-17 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers Saturday at M&T Bank Stadium.

Here are the top takeaways:

  • Lamar Jackson had the offense's highest grade (90.2) after throwing three touchdowns and beating the Steelers for the second time in his career. While there was plenty of postgame talk about Jackson slaying the Steelers narrative, it wasn't his highest-graded game versus Pittsburgh. That came last season in a loss in which his receivers dropped several passes.
  • Kyle Hamilton posted the top grade on the entire team (90.4), just edging out Jackson. Hamilton did everything well, from coverage, to run defense, to tackling. His pass breakup on a deep fourth-down pass that could've been a touchdown was a huge play.
  • Derrick Henry had his lowest grade of the season (60.4) in the Ravens' Week 11 loss in Pittsburgh. He posted his third-highest grade of the year (82.4) in the rematch, in which he rolled for 162 rushing yards. Henry also played a season-high 46 snaps after Justice Hill left the game with a concussion in the second quarter.
  • Rookie right tackle Roger Rosengarten posted his fourth straight game with a grade in the mid-to-high 70s. It's the first time since Week 9, however, that he scored a higher grade in run blocking than pass. His 75.5 grade in run blocking is the highest of his young career.
  • Despite popping up on last week's injury report with a foot injury, wide receiver Rashod Bateman played his highest share of snaps (81%) since Week 8 and caught a touchdown pass.
  • Outside linebacker Kyle Van Noy scored his second-highest grade (80.3) of the season and best mark since Week 4 against the Bills. He had 1.5 sacks and four pressures on 20 pass rush opportunities. Defensive tackle Nnamdi Madubuike had the highest win rate, however, at 16.7%.
  • Trenton Simpson didn't play any defensive snaps for the first time this season. Malik Harrison (60%) and Chris Board (43%) again split the snaps beside Roquan Smith.
  • After a three-game stretch with snap counts in the 70% range, cornerback Brandon Stephens is back to playing nearly every snap. He played all but four against the Steelers while Tre'Davious White saw 13 defensive snaps.
