Ravens Beat Titans 13-10 To Move On In Playoffs A not-so-raw rookie and a trustworthy veteran lifted the Baltimore Ravens to the brink of the Super Bowl.With the help of a brutal defense that knocks opponents silly, of course.

"I would say this would be the No. 1 (kick in my career)," Stover said, then added, "but we've got some more kicks, too. So let's just be humble about that." Humble after a rumble. Two teams with an extreme dislike for each other never stopped pounding it out in the wind and rain. The difference: Baltimore forced three turnovers and never gave away the ball. More...
