555444
For years, the Baltimore Ravens have done things the hard way. With a lack of offensive firepower, Baltimore has been forced to look towards its defense and special teams to pick up the slack.

The Baltimore Ravens won the game, yet showed exactly why they had to depend on outside help to reach the playoffs. Baltimore needed to beat the Miami Dolphins and have three other games fall its way to earn a wild-card berth. The Ravens did their part by stumbling to a 30-23 victory Sunday, but they left the field unsure if it was their final game of the season.

Ed Reed wasn't just the best defensive player on the Ravens, even with Ray Lewis as a teammate, he was the best in the NFL this season.

With both offenses going nowhere, all the Baltimore Ravens needed was a few big plays by safety Ed Reed. Reed scored a touchdown on a safety blitz, stopped Clinton Portis on a third-and-1 and sprung B.J. Sams for a 78-yard punt return, all in a 2 1/2-minute span in the third quarter. The Ravens scored 14 points without their struggling offense taking the field and that was more than enough to rally from a 10-0 halftime deficit in Sunday night's 17-10 victory over the punchless Washington Redskins.

BALTIMORE - At the end of the year, when the Baltimore Ravens evaluate their season, they will not focus on â-r even remember â - first-half scoring drives in the second game of the season against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

This time, a field goal wasn't going to be good enough. Steve McNair had to take the Baltimore Ravens into the end zone for a victory, and he had to cover 60 yards without any timeouts.

While he still would prefer to be the starter, Ravens quarterback Kyle Boller has adjusted well to being the backup and enjoyed a solid preseason.

As injuries strip the Baltimore running game down, it is Boller&#39;s maturation that gives the Ravens continued optimism. No Jamal Lewis (ankle) when the Ravens (7-3) meet the New England Patriots (9-1) Sunday in Foxboro, Mass.

The Ravens will approach personnel decisions with hopes of sustaining this season's success for a number of years rather than sacrificing their future for a run at the Super Bowl next season.
