Ravens Ring of Honor
Wait a second. If Queen and Quan both played 100% of snaps last game, did we play 0 snaps of dime?
it's possible - or it's also possible we only had 3 DL on some obvious passing downs (2 EDGE and 1 DL) - i don't have the answer just spit-balling how them playing 100% might not necessarily mean we played no dime

but you're likely correct

PACKAGES

Note: all snap totals exclude penalties resulting in no play, kneels, spikes, and specials team plays resulting in a run or pass. As such, they will be lower than other published totals.

The Panthers ran 54 such snaps.

Jumbo (1): Macdonald deployed a jumbo package with 4 DL for just 1 play (3rd/1, Q1, 10:31) on which the Panthers converted. 1 play, 2 yards.

Base (9): The Ravens used their base 3-4 defense for 9 snaps including 4 runs for 2 yards and 5 passes for 24 (4.8 YPP). 9 plays, 26 yards, 2.9 YPP.

Big Nickel (14): This version of the nickel included 2 down linemen, 2 OLB, and 2 ILB, 2 CB, and 3 S. Kyle Hamilton was the SCB for each of these plays (and every nickel snap prior to his injury). Macdonald deployed it versus a mix of 11, 12, and 02 personnel. These included 6 runs for 15 yards and 8 passes for 9 net yards, including 1 sack. 14 plays, 24 yards, 1.7 YPP.

Standard Nickel (18): The Ravens used the standard nickel for 18 snaps after Hamilton was injured. Brandon Stephens was inserted at RCB and Humphrey moved to SCB. These included 5 runs for 15 yards and 13 passes for 46 yards (4.0 YPP) with 2 sacks and 3 turnovers. 18 plays, 61 yards, 3.4 YPP.

Rush Nickel (12): This version of the nickel included 1 down linemen, 3 OLB, and 2 ILB. These included 6 instances of big nickel (Hamilton) and 6 standard nickel (Stephens) along with 5 drive-ending plays. 12 plays, 92 yards, 7.7 YPP.

I knew we played a lot of nickel, but didn't know the exact amount. Thanks for posting.

Thanks! I forgot about the DL component. I'm sure we did at least some of that.

EDIT: Turns out we actually didn't play dime.
