The Baltimore Ravens had a scare today when the Browns tied them in the third quarter, but the Ravens scored 10 unanswered points to finish off the game.  Steve McNair started the game and went 0 for 4 passing before leaving the game after Andra Davis stepped on his hand.  McNair didn’t return to the game.  In stepped Kyle Boller and he played real well.  He completed 13 of 21 passes for 238 yards with 2 TDs and 1 INT.  Jamal Lewis had a good game as he carried the ball 22 times for 109 yards (5.0 ypc) and a TD.  Demetrius Williams caught 2 passes for 100 yards and a TD.  Todd Heap was busy with 5 catches for 58 yards.  FB Ovie Mughelli caught 2 passes for 13 yards and a TD.

The defense played pretty well today.  Ray Lewis had 7 tackles and a sack.  Terrell Suggs was all over the place and wound up with 9 tackles and a sack.  Adalius Thomas also was very active with 9 tackles and a 1/2 sack.  Trevor Pryce also had a good game with 3 tackles, 2 sacks and a forced fumble.  The Browns only ran the ball 16 times for 68 yards (4.3 ypc).  The Browns completed 23 of 33 passes for 168 net yards passing.

The Ravens improved to 11-3 on the season and won the division.
