The Baltimore Ravens (12-4) accomplished their goal Sunday afternoon with a 24-16 victory over the youthful Cincinnati Bengals (9-7).
Baltimore was led by Ray Rice, who gained 191 yards on 24 carries. He added two touchdowns, each on huge plays. Rice’s second touchdown, a 51-yard run, iced the game for Baltimore because it put them up 24-13 with less than six minutes to go in the game.

At the end of the game, quarterback Joe Flacco used a hard count to ice the game for the Baltimore Ravens (11-4). Baltimore got themselves closer to a division title and a top-two seed in the AFC playoffs with a 20-14 victory over the Cleveland Browns (4-11).
Flacco once again had an uneven game. He completed eight of his first 11 passes for two touchdowns, but had trouble in the second half. Part of his struggles led to an interception in the end zone on a bomb to Lee Evans. Flacco ended the day 11-of-24 for 132 yards with two touchdowns and the interception.
The quarterback also watched his receivers, Ed Dickson and Torrey Smith, dropped a few passes on third downs. Those drops could have easily led to a couple continued drives.

This game shouldn’t have been a doubt and it wasn’t for the Baltimore Ravens (9-3) Sunday. They got off to a fast start with running back Ray Rice, who gained 204 yards and a touchdown on 29 carries. His workhorse-type day yielded a 24-10 Ravens’ victory over the hapless Cleveland Browns (4-8).
Rice wasn’t the only running back to get in to the act. Backup Ricky Williams gained 76 yards on 18 carries and scored a touchdown. Williams gained some tough yards, but found a lot of holes in the Cleveland defense.

Andy Dalton is one impressive rookie quarter. Sure he had three interceptions, but he threw for 373 yards and one touchdown against the vaunted Ravens’ defense. There were several times the Ravens (7-3) defensive backs were beaten deep by Cincinnati (6-4) receivers.
It didn’t really seem to matter by the end of the day, though. Dalton proved he was a rookie when Terrell Suggs wrapped him up and he threw the ball out of bounds for intentional grounding. That was effectively the end of the game in the Ravens’ 31-24 victory.

After a big comes another disappointing loss for the Baltimore Ravens (6-3). The Seattle Seahawks (3-6) used three Baltimore turnovers and rugged running by Marshawn Lynch to upset the Ravens 22-17.
David Reed, a wide receiver/kick returner, fumbled two kickoff returns which cost the Ravens six points. He also had an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty which pushed the Ravens back on an offensive possession.

The Ravens (4-2) had all the advantages that you could think about coming in to their Monday night game against the Jacksonville Jaguars (2-5), losing 12-7.
Did Joe Flacco play well in the loss? Absolutely not. Was it all his fault? Nope, I don’t think so at all.
Baltimore’s patchwork offensive line didn’t do a good job of protecting Flacco, forcing the fourth-year quarterback to scramble and misfire on multiple occasions.
