Baltimore Ravens RB JK Dobbins was extremely frustrated after his team’s 24-17 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. He believes that there would have been a different result had the Ravens given him the ball, and not QB Tyler Huntley, on a crucial fourth-quarter play near the goal line.

Huntley made the game’s most critical mistake when he fumbled with the score tied at 17, losing the ball on a leap toward the end zone and having his turnover returned 98 yards for a touchdown by Bengals defensive end Sam Hubbard. The Ravens went from being on the verge of taking a touchdown lead to falling behind by seven points with 11:39 remaining.

“He should have never been in that situation,” Dobbins said of Huntley. “I don’t get a single carry. I didn’t get a single carry. He should never have been in that situation. I believe I would have put it in the end zone, again.”

Dobbins saw the ball just 13 times in the loss to the Bengals. He ran for 62 yards, which was good enough to lead all rushers on either team. However, QB Tyler Huntley saw nine carries, and RB Gus Edwards had 12.

“I’m tired of it. I’m a playmaker. My teammates feed off me when I’m on the field. I should be out there all the time,” Dobbins said on Sunday, via ESPN.

Dobbins also made it known he felt the outcome would’ve been different with Lamar Jackson at quarterback. Jackson didn’t travel with the team as he missed his sixth consecutive game due to a PCL sprain.

“If we had Lamar, we would have won, too,” Dobbins said.

The Ravens have lot of decisions to make this off-season. The big decision is with QB Lamar Jackson.
