No play is more legendary than Joe Flacco's high-arching heave to Jacoby Jones for a yard touchdown with 31 seconds left to force overtime. Justin Tucker drilled a yard field goal in double overtime to send Baltimore to the AFC Championship feeling like a team of destiny.
It looked to be another Ravens Super Bowl rout until the lights went out in the Superdome. The 49ers roared back and were in position for a potential game-winning touchdown in the final minutes before the Ravens defense held on the goal line.
After having a Super Bowl trip slip through their fingers and sail wide left the year before, the Ravens returned to Gillette Stadium for a rematch. This time, they stomped the Patriots in the second half with two Joe Flacco-Anquan Boldin touchdowns while the defense pitched a second-half shutout. The Ravens knew their toughest opponent en route to the Super Bowl would be the rival Titans.
It was indeed a slugfest, but Ray Lewis plunged the dagger in the fourth quarter when he stole the ball from Titans running back Eddie George and raced 50 yards for a touchdown. But that 7, is total people in the building so it includes players, coaches, trainers, stadium personnel, media, etc. Still … that will be fun. It was just eerie for the first two home games this year. The limited fans might not have a real impact on the game but they will at least provide a little bit of juice and a little normalcy to a year that could use it.
The Cowboys are in first place but they lost Dak Prescott for the year last week. Travis Fulgham followed up his big touchdown catch against the 49ers with a catch, yard, 1-touchdown game against the Steelers. My guess is we see a lot of Marlon Humphrey matched up against Fulgham, which will be about as great a test as there is for a young receiver. Two Crimson Tide coaches are accepting promotions at there big-time programs. After just one season in Indianapolis, one of the Colts' most-beloved former players wants his old team to move on.
Who do the oddsmakers have filling the coaching vacancies across the NFL? Securing the division title is a major win for any NFL team, but several ones in action in the wild-card round should be on upset alert. Fulgham has only played in the last two games, but jumped on the scene with 57 yards and a touchdown catch in Week 4, before exploding in Week 5 with 10 catches for yards and a score.
John Harbaugh, a former Eagles special teams coordinator, is against his former employer, most recently winning in a , Ravens victory.

Eagles vs. Ravens is scheduled to start at 1 p. ET, one of four regional early games on CBS. The rest of the country will have access to New England vs.
Denver, Houston vs. That's all encouraging, but the Eagles must be more consistent with their running game. Miles Sanders had a yard touchdown run but gained only 6 yards and a touchdown on his other 10 rushing attempts. Baltimore is fifth in the NFL against the run, allowing only 92 yards per game on the ground. With an offensive line continuing to battle injuries, the Eagles have their work cut out to establish the ground game.
Aaron Moorehead on Travis Fulgham: "We knew pretty early on he was a guy we wanted to keep around and see where it would go. You keep looking up through the first few weeks of the season and he's over there on the scout team taking every rep. He's not coming out. He's not complaining. He's just catching everything thrown to him.
It actually as a coach made me want to sit over there and watch the defensive scout periods because to watch him and Deontay Burnett. They were fun over there. Honestly, I think we got a really good steal in Travis. I can't wait to see him continue to grow. Defensive Coordinator Jim Schwartz on Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson: "Lamar Jackson is probably the most dangerous player in the league because there are times you can do everything right on defense and can't catch him, or he can throw a ball sidearm underneath of a free rusher and complete a pass.
I think that you've got to have a resilient attitude when you play him, and you know that a playmaker like him is going to make some plays. You just have to limit his big plays, and you have to stay resilient.
You want to make these guys make quick decisions. In my opinion, you gotta heat them up, send extra pressure, make him think on his feet. And then, there's gonna be times where you gotta sit back and give him a different look and you're going to have to contain him with the entire defense.
Eagles Game Plan analyst Greg Cosell on the Ravens' offense: "The Ravens are an offense that's different from every other offense that the Eagles will face because it's an offense that's built on Lamar Jackson as a runner, not as a passer. Everything they do works off the run game and, of course, Lamar Jackson is a critical component of that run game. Eagles Game Plan analyst Greg Cosell on Ravens tight end Mark Andrews: "I don't want to say number one target, but in certain situations he clearly is.
He works the middle of the field very well. Good athlete, catches the ball. Eagles Game Plan analyst Ike Reese on defending wide receiver rushing attempts: "The guys on the back end have to be aware of the formations and the tendencies in which these runs are coming out of.
Last week, Baltimore ran a receiver rush with Devin Duvernay, who is a track star. This is a copycat league. This started back in the Rams game when Robert Woods scored a rushing touchdown. It's pretty much happened once a week. Until the Eagles' defense shows that it can stop this play, they'll continue to see it. Eagle Eye in the Sky host Fran Duffy on the Ravens' defense: "They bring pressure and they bring it from all angles — safeties, corners, explosive linebackers, lots of different looks from dime, from nickel.
Dime has been their primary subpackage front in terms of when they come after you. It's a fast group. The thing that stands out to me too is they use everybody.
