Harbaugh: Mornhinweg's Decision To Throw Late Was 'All-Time Worst Call Ever'

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- Jordan Hicks picked off Joe Flacco with 6:21 left in the game, giving the Eagles life.

But the question is, holding a 27-17 lead with a 1st-and-10 from the Eagles' 11-yard line, why even throw the ball?

"All-time worst call ever," Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said of the decision by Ravens offensive coordinator Marty Mornhinweg to throw the ball in that situation.

"I'll take responsibility for it. I should have vetoed it right away. I like an aggressive mindset, but that was way too aggressive. It's the worst play call we've had, and it's my fault."
