Ray Lewis and the Ravens move on with amazing OT win over Denver

In the fourth longest game in the NFL history the Baltimore Ravens defeated the top seeded Denver Broncos 38-35 in an overtime playoff game for the ages.

In what was a back and fourth game all day, the Broncos seemingly had the game won.

With 39 seconds in the fourth quarter, Joe Flacco and the Ravens were facing a 3rd and 3 before the Baltimore QB threw and absolute bomb 70 yards to Jacoby Jones for the touchdown tying the game at 35 a piece.

On Denver’s ensuing possession, John Fox decided to kneel on the ball instead of letting Peyton Manning try and win it with half a minute remaining in the game.

After a scoreless first quarter in overtime, Peyton Manning a candidate for MVP threw a crucial interception at midfield before rookie Justin Tucker hit a 47-yard field goal to send the Ravens to the AFC Championship game for the second consecutive season.

Ray Lewis lives to see another game.
