The Ravens will once again embrace their role as underdogs in the AFC championship game against the New England Patriots,
Baltimore's Justin Tucker kicked a 47-yard field goal 1:42 into the second overtime Saturday to lift the Ravens to a 38-35 victory over the Denver Broncos in the AFC playoffs.

Ray Lewis' last ride now will take him to Denver. Anquan Boldin, Joe Flacco and a staunch Baltimore defense made sure of that Sunday.
Lewis has been sidelined since Oct. 14 with a torn right triceps. The 13-time Pro Bowl middle linebacker intends to return Sunday to face the Indianapolis Colts in what will almost certainly be his final home game.
Jones told The Fan "if you look at the pluses Sunday, we're evolving into a team that can be a team that can compete for the championship. Not next year, this year."
Lewis tore his right triceps during Sunday's 31-29 victory over Dallas. Cornerback Lardarius Webb also is out for the year after ripping the ACL in his left knee in the win against the Cowboys.

"Sometimes it comes down to a kick," Tony Romo said. "If the kick goes in, it's, 'You did a great job today, everybody!' If it doesn't go in, it's 'We didn't do enough to win.'" There is a maddening truth to that review.
After Dez Bryant scored on a 4-yard pass from Tony Romo with 32 seconds left to make it 31-29, the 2-point conversion pass zipped through the arms of the diving Bryant in the front left corner of the end zone.
I hate the Baltimore Ravens because, frankly, they have Ray Lewis and we don't. I'm admitting to pure jealousy fueling my hate with this one.
"I'm disappointed we're not putting more points on the board, i'm disappointed that we're not getting the turnovers - all of that tells me that at 2-2 were are in pretty good shape considering the way we play."
