Baltimore Ravens at Carolina Panthers
Ravens stars shine in Carolina twighlight
Under pressure running back Ray Rice hit back at his critics in devestating style at the Bank of America Stadium. Rice ran in scores from 35 and 53yds in the 4th quarter as he twisted, turned, banged and bashed his way to 215 yds against a tiring Carolina defence.
Another Raven who felt he had something to prove after an average start to the season was Anquan Boldin. He weighed in with 2 touchdown catches in the first half, from 7 and 11yds, answering back to level the score each time after M Moore first found Brandon LaFell from 5yds and the evergreen Steve Smith from 3yds.
The teams went into the locker room at half time level at 14, both coaches undoubtedly pleased that their offence was able to sustain long drives. Flacco's control in the 80yd, 9 min drive to set up Boldins second put the marker down that this Ravens offence mean business.
The second half continued in the same vein as the Ravens offence dominated the line of scrimmage, allowing Rice to finally break his shackles and at last rediscover some of his early season form. He was ably assisted by back up Donald Brown who sliced through a bewildered Panthers defence in the third to score from 7yds out as the Ravens took the lead for the first time.
With the scoreboard in their favour, the Ravens defence found a second wind, no doubt in part due to an emotive half time speach from injured captain Ray Lewis. As the game entered the fourth quarter The Ravens continued to carry the ball hard past the gain line as Rice piled up the yards.
The Ravens maintained their position at the head of the NFL on 8/2, along with the Patriots, Eagles, Cowboys and Steelers. The New York Jets lost ground as they suffered a 20 14 loss at home to the Texans. The Ravens, bouyed by the manner of their victory, and the fact they stayed injury free, will look to keep the pressure on the rest of the NFL as they entertain the 1/9 Buccaneers next week.
