BALTIMORE -- Lamar Jackson threw three touchdown passes and guided the Baltimore Ravens to a 41-10 victory over rookie Bo Nix and the Denver Broncos on Sunday.
Baltimore running back Derrick Henry ran for 106 yards on 23 carries with two touchdowns. His first score was his 100th career rushing touchdown, surpassing Barry Sanders for 10th on the all-time list and he later moved past Marshall Faulk and Shaun Alexander for eighth place.
The Ravens (6-3) still trail the Steelers (6-2) in the AFC North. Pittsburgh is on its bye this week.
Jackson was 16-of-29 passing for 280 yards and did not commit a turnover. He improved to 4-0 against the Broncos since entering the NFL in 2018. Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers caught five passes for 127 yards with two touchdowns.
Denver (5-4) lost for just the second time in the last seven games.
The Ravens' beleaguered secondary got a boost with the return of cornerback Marlon Humphrey, who leads the AFC with four interceptions. Humphrey missed last week's 29-24 loss to the Cleveland Browns with a knee injury. Baltimore entered Sunday ranked last against the pass, allowing 291.4 yards per game.
Nix, who was named NFL Offensive Rookie of the Month for October, was 19 of 33 for 223 yards with an interception. Nix also became the first quarterback in franchise history to catch a touchdown pass since John Elway (1986).
Denver finished with 122 yards rushing on 30 carries. The Broncos were 1-of-5 on fourth down.
Baltimore led 24-10 at the half, highlighted by a pair of touchdown passes from Jackson to Flowers for 7 and 53 yards. Flowers finished with more than 100 yards receiving for the fourth time in five games.
After stopping the Broncos on a fourth-and-1, the Ravens took a 7-0 lead on a 7-yard scoring run by Henry.
Denver pulled to within 10-7 with 7:15 left in the second quarter when Nix caught a 2-yard touchdown pass from Courtland Sutton on a double-reverse trick play.
Sutton led the Broncos with seven catches for 122 yards.
Henry scored his second touchdown to cap the Ravens' first drive of the second half, and a 79-yard drive later in the quarter resulted in Jackson's 3-yard touchdown throw to fullback Patrick Ricard to make it 38-10.
