The Baltimore Ravens defeated the Chicago Bears 17-16 in the Hall of Fame Game, and there were several standouts on both sides of the ball for Baltimore.

Defensively, Kamalei Correa was a superstar as he recorded three sacks, one interception and forced a fumble. Defensive end Bronson Kaufusi also quietly had a breakout performance as well.

Due to the number of plays and clips, I have decided to break this film piece into two parts: offense and defense. Part one will focus on the defensive side of the ball.

Defensive lineman Willie Henry has been a standout performer during training camp thus far, and he flashed during the Hall of Fame Game. Henry used his athleticism and strength to get past the blocker as he simply pushed him back and swiped his hands. As a result, Henry had an open lane to quarterback Chase Daniel, who was forced to roll to his right and check it down.

Tim Williams displayed several different pass-rushing moves on Thursday night. On this play, Williams tried a bull rush, which failed. Za’Darious Smith performed a quick rip move, while a stunt on the other side of the field involving Willie Henry and Matt Judon worked as well. Baltimore’s four-man rush delivered enough pressure to force Daniel to get rid of the ball quickly. Unfortunately for Baltimore, Chicago picked up the first down as Albert McClellan could not cover his man.

Matt Judon and Tavon Young were both completely stonewalled, which opened up the strong side for Benny Cunningham. Baltimore lost contain on the play. Anthony Levine Sr. broke through the initial block, but he took a poor angle, and Cunningham’s quick cut to the left allowed him to win the race to the outside.

Without access to the All-22 view, we can’t see how Bennie Fowler III created separation, but this should have been a touchdown. Maurice Canady was a step and a half behind him, while the throw was perfect.

The Ravens ran another stunt as Smith cut to the inside, while Henry picked up two blocks. On the other side, Judon performed another rip move and nearly got the sack. Baltimore’s pass-rush was alive and well on the first series of the drive as they were forcing Daniel to get rid of the ball quickly. Daniel’s pass deflected off of a lineman’s helmet, and Chuck Clark came up with the interception.

Williams was stonewalled when he attempted a bull rush initially, and then he drew a double team. Smith also tried a bull rush on the other side, and he nearly backed the offensive lineman into Daniel. Baltimore ran a zone coverage on this play, and Patrick Onwuasor was a step too late in identifying the route, which led to the completion.

Baltimore ran man-coverage, and Albert McClellan was responsible for the fullback, Michael Burton. McClellan jumped the route thinking he was running a flat route. Burton made a quick cut to the inside and burned McClellan, who is fighting for a roster spot.

Correa played significantly more snaps at outside linebacker, but on this play, he made the most of an opportunity at inside linebacker. Daniel threw the ball behind his intended target, Correa jumped it and came up with the interception. To make the roster, he needs to prove he can be an adept inside linebacker.

Smith set the edge as he did not allow the tight end to contain him, and he threw him to the side once Cunningham was within tackling range. Carl Davis initially blew up this run as he broke through the offensive line. Davis is also fighting for a roster spot, and plays like this will only boost his stock.

Bronson Kaufusi did not get the sack, but he performed a perfect swim move. His initial step was excellent, he defended the push from the offensive lineman with great hand technique and then he went swimming over the top to get a free lane to the quarterback. This is another pressure recorded by Kaufusi. Defensive line coach Joe Cullen talked about how utilizing him on the outside could work well since he could use his athleticism in more space.

Peanut’s run defense was solid last season, but if the preseason is any indication, it will be even better in 2018. He correctly identified the running lane and blew up the play. Peanut did not make the tackle, but he caused the running back to stumble, and Willie Henry finished the play. Instincts are critical for an inside linebacker, and Peanut showed that on this play.

As previously mentioned, Correa must make plays at inside linebacker during the preseason to make the roster. He showcased patience and great instincts on this play. Instead of running in and getting blocked, which is something he has done before, Correa let the defensive line do their job. Brent Urban took on two blockers to clear a lane for Correa, who patiently waited for the hole to open up to meet the running back and make the tackle. His three sacks will be what most fans remember from this game, but plays like these are the ones that will increase his roster chances.

Rushing from the inside, Correa utilized a bull rush. He got into the backfield and made the sack after Darious Williams had an open lane to the quarterback. Correa pushed his assignment far enough back that Daniel ran into him as he stepped up to avoid Williams. Again, these are the plays that will boost his stock. Correa showcased great ability as an edge rusher, but Baltimore is deep and loaded with talent at that position.

Rushing from the outside, Correa used another bull rush, and he nearly pushed Bradley Sowell into Daniel. Correa looked explosive off of the ball and made a nice sack while being held by Sowell, who only started two games for Chicago last year. In the upcoming preseason games, it will be interesting to see what Correa does against better competition.

Bennett Jackson had a solid game as well. He received snaps at safety, and on several occasions, he showed his physicality. On this play, he sprinted 10 yards or more to meet the running back close to the line of scrimmage to make the tackle.

Williams attempted a speed rush with DeShon Elliott trailing him. The bend move worked well as Williams had a step on the tackle, but Daniel quickly got rid of the football. Williams was a step too slow on the snap, which could have been the reason why he did not get a QB hit or sack.

Elliott’s physicality and speed are incredible. Look at where he started on this play. He is on the far side and eventually caught up to the wide receiver and forced a fumble. Elliott’s tackle technique is perfect as he located the football and punched it out. Bronson Kaufusi had the awareness to jump on it after he failed to wrap up.

Seventh round draft pick Zach Sieler was a surprise on Thursday night. He showcased his athleticism on several plays. The Bears appear to be running an outside zone run, and Sieler broke free to help make the tackle from behind.

Patrick Ricard was a force on the defensive line. Not only did he shed the block, but he made the tackle. He was constantly in the backfield as a defensive lineman. He is considered a near-lock to make the roster, and his stock continued to rise after Thursday night.

Due to this view, it is hard to see exactly how much distance Ricard covered on this play, but it was quite an effort. He started in the backfield by the quarterback, yet somehow was able to catch the wide receiver and make the tackle. Wims was poised to turn that into a significant gain if Ricard did not catch him.

Kaufusi is lined up as an outside linebacker, and he contained the play well. He shut down the outside lane, avoided the pulling tight ends block attempt and helped make the tackle at the line of scrimmage.

Williams dropped back into coverage on this play, and like many of the Ravens, he was roasted by Javon Wims. This is undoubtedly a mismatch, but this is an area Williams must improve in. It is unlikely Baltimore would allow this match up to happen in a regular season game.

Kenny Young’s biggest weakness is his run defense. However, on this play, he demonstrated great awareness as he blew up the play. Myles Humphrey, an undrafted free agent, also helped shut down the play from the edge as he was unblocked.

Rushing from the edge, Correa utilized a speed rush to get to the quarterback. He showed great instincts as he put his hand out and hit the football. Correa was a 4-3 defensive end at Boise State, meaning he has the instincts to play as an outside linebacker. The issue is Baltimore’s logjam at outside linebacker.

Rookie cornerback Anthony Averett has flashed over the course of training camp, but on this play, Javon Wims beat him. Averett had good coverage, but he was a second too late at turning around to locate the football, and Wims went up to snag the ball in the air. Averett struggles with the same thing as Marlon Humphrey: locating the football.

Jackson showcased his physicality all night. On this play, he is coming off the edge, unblocked, and recorded the sack on Tyler Bray. On the other side, Zach Sieler almost recorded the sack as well. He performed a rip move to get past the offensive lineman. Sieler is considered a raw prospect, but he looked far from ‘raw’ on Thursday night. It will be interesting to see how many snaps he receives in Baltimore’s next preseason game.

Again, Wims beats a Baltimore cornerback. This time it was Darious Williams, who was unable to stay with him after the contact. Williams is a speedy slot cornerback, but he struggles against bigger receivers, as shown above.

Undrafted free agent Chris Board had a strong showing, but on this play, Wims completely toasted him. He was seemingly put to sleep with Wims’ slow walk up, but then he gets juked out of his shoes once a cut was made to the inside.

Kaufusi did not generate any pressure, but he was able to push his match up back enough to create space to jump up and swat the ball at the line of scrimmage. Kaufusi needs to display he can contribute on the line at multiple spots to earn a roster spot, and he did precisely that in the Hall of Fame Game.

Against Wims again, Williams wins the battle with the pass breakup. Wims created separation, but Bray threw an inaccurate pass that gave Williams a chance to recover. Williams’ ball skills are severely underrated as well.

Williams is in coverage, but there was, arguably, a push off which led to the receiver being wide open for the touchdown. Given the full arm extension, this should have been called as offensive pass interference.

Chris Wormley and Zach Sieler combined to put pressure on Bray, which forced him to backpedal and throw the ball away. Wormley was coming off of a stunt, while Sieler performed a quick rip move. If Sieler did not stumble, he would have likely sacked Bray.

Kaufusi applied pressure until the final whistle. He combined a speed and bull rush here to get to Bray, who was able to step up and deliver a somewhat accurate pass.

Five final takeaways
