Corner Turned

The outcome of this game goes beyond 2009. It was a statement made by the Ravens when all the stars were aligned against them. We were scheduled to play our divisional rival and then travel to play Amedias team for the last game in Texas Stadium. With a rookie QB we took Pitt. to the limit and then overcame our agonizing loss to whip the much hyped Cowboys when all of America awaited a Cowboys farewell party. 

Our rookie Flacco shook off his week's misfortunes and stood taller than his veteran Cowboy counterpardner. I don't know if I'm more relieved from the result of this game or excited to get on with the playoffs. I am satisfied but spoiled to expect a run into January. Our team may have lost its share of heart breaking games but this only occurs because we always have high hope. Hope given to us by a team that competes week in and week out while us fans (especially me) stab, probe, insult and cheer from the bottom of our football loving souls. God bless the Ravens. They finally won a huge game on national tv...at night! I can rest in peace.

Now we know the feelings

we would have had if we had beaten the Steelers (and Giants, Colts, Titans and Steelers again)!

is the last play to ever score a TD in Texas Stadium.

his 88 yard run was the longest at Texas Stadium by a visiting team..or maybe overall.

Maybe not, what about their home game in the playoffs?

it was the longest in the history of Texas Stadium by an opponent of the Cowboys.
