BALTIMORE -- The Cincinnati Bengals had given away a 15-point lead, were still in search of their first touchdown and seemed poised to absorb another devastating defeat in their personal House of Pain. Fake Jordan . Thats when receiver A.J. Green got into the huddle and told his teammates, "We got one play. Lets make this play." Green did more than just talk. He caught a 77-yard touchdown pass from Andy Dalton with 4:58 left to provide Cincinnati with a feel-good 23-16 win over the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday. Green got behind cornerback Chykie Brown, who was pressed into a starting role for the injured Lardarius Webb. Brown got a hand on the ball, which popped from Greens grasp before he gathered it in. After putting a fake on safety Darian Stewart, Green trotted into the end zone. The subsequent 2-point conversion made it 23-16, and the Bengals held on. "Its big for the team, man," Green said. "Just taking that next step to being a great team. I think these games right here prepare us for going into the post-season. When were not scoring every play, when it comes down to making that play, I think that game will help us." Dalton went 25 for 38 for 301 yards to help the Bengals end a four-game losing streak in Baltimore. "We did exactly what we set out to do there today," Dalton said. "There are a lot of tough places to play in this league and this is certainly one of the toughest. It was the only place I had not won since joining the Bengals." The go-ahead score came just 48 seconds after Baltimore newcomer Steve Smith caught an 80-yard touchdown pass from Joe Flacco, who overcame a slow start to finish 35 for 62 for 345 yards and an interception. It was the longest touchdown throw of Flaccos career, but the offence as a whole sputtered in its first outing under co-ordinator Gary Kubiak. "We played just about as bad as you can in terms of just simple fundamental things," Flacco said. Following Greens score, Flacco took the Ravens to the Cincinnati 16 before he was sacked on third and fourth down, the last with 55 seconds left. "I knew I had to make a play to make the first down, and I just couldnt do it," Flacco said. Mike Nugent kicked five field goals to give the Bengals a 15-0 halftime lead. Baltimore cut it to 15-10 before Smith broke his pattern to go deep as Flacco scrambled out of the pocket. Smith hauled in a pass along the left sideline and shook off Adam "Pacman" Jones with his right arm before stepping into the end zone. "We had a little scramble drill. Joe told me to go so I went," Smith said. "He threw a great ball." Smith, who played 13 seasons with Carolina before signing as a free agent, finished with seven catches for 118 yards in his Ravens debut. Playing without starting running back Ray Rice, who began a two-game suspension for domestic violence, the Ravens mustered only 91 yards rushing. Starter Bernard Pierce, who gained 14 yards on six carries and lost a fumble, was overshadowed by Justin Forsett, who ran for 70 yards and a touchdown. Both teams were affected by injuries. Baltimore placed Webb on the inactive list with a back injury, and Dalton repeatedly picked on Brown. The Bengals lost Pro Bowl linebacker Vontaze Burfict to a concussion late in the second quarter, and tight end Tyler Eifert left in the first half with a right elbow injury. Flacco was booed by many in the sellout crowd after throwing an interception to end a promising third-quarter possession. On Baltimores next series, however, Flacco finally put together his first scoring drive of the season. Completing six of seven passes for 63 yards, he moved the Ravens 82 yards for a touchdown -- a 13-yard run by Forsett. Baltimores defence then produced its first three-and-out, and Flacco followed with a 14-play drive that produced a 38-yard field goal to make it 15-10 with 10:28 remaining. Nugent connected on field goals of 49, 22, 28, 46 and 38 yards before halftime, and Baltimores lone sustained drive ended horribly on the final play of the half. Down 15-0, the Ravens moved to the Cincinnati 15 with 8 seconds left. Flacco bounced around in the pocket, cut right as time expired and was sacked, ending Baltimores chance to at least get a field goal. NOTES: Jeromy Miles got Baltimores first blocked field goal since Kelly Gregg against Cincinnati on October 11, 2009. ... Dalton is 31-18 as a starter, the best in Bengals history for a QB with 10 or more starts. ... The loss stops Baltimores eight-game home opener winning streak, dating back to 2006. Cheap Jordan From China . -- The Detroit Lions made it crystal clear to Golden Tate that he was their top target in free agency. Cheap Air Jordan Online .com) - Montreal Canadiens goaltender Carey Price is set to return Tuesday against Nashville after sitting out the past two games because of a minor upper body injury. https://www.wholesalejordanshoeschina.com/ .Voegele will next play Anna Schmiedlova of Slovakia, who saved 10 of 16 break points to defeat Annika Beck of Germany 7-6 (6), 6-4.Also, Marina Erakovic of New Zealand defeated eighth-seeded Caroline Garcia of France 6-2, 4-6, 6-4.WINNIPEG -- The loss of offensive lineman Chris Greaves is just one of the injuries forcing the Winnipeg Blue Bombers to make lineup changes for Friday nights game against the Montreal Alouettes. "This isnt really the week you want to lose Chris Greaves," fellow lineman Glenn January said Wednesday after practice. Greaves is expected to miss several weeks after suffering a knee injury in last weeks 36-28 win over the Ottawa Redblacks. Cordaro Howard will replace the veteran lineman, which has other implications for coach Mike OShea since Howard is an import and Greaves is a Canadian. "Whenever you play a team like this that runs a lot of different games and blitzes you want to have a guy that youve had a lot of experience with," January added. "But Cordaros done a good job making sure that hes in the film room ... when were getting some extra time in and making sure we understand what we need to do." OShea gives a lot of respect to Montreals defence and so does quarterback Drew Willy. "They like to bring pressure, they keep on coming and coming and coming, theyre relentless ... (linebacker) Chip Cox is defensive player of the year (for 2013) but theyve got a lot of good players," said OShea. Willy spent two seasons as a backup in Saskatchewan before joining the Blue Bombers. "Theyve (had) a great defence ever since Ive been in the league and before that they won a couple of Grey Cups," said Willy. "Weve been doing our homework all week and know weve got to play a great game." Winnipegs offensive line has been doing a decent job helping Willy make a solid debut in his first season as the No.. Air Jordan 19 For Sale. 1 pivot and the Bombers are off to a 2-0 start. Hes completed 40 of 60 passes for 615 yards and four touchdowns and sits behind only Toronto veteran Ricky Ray at 690 yards. But its those two wins that really please fans, starved for success after last years 3-15 finish. Only the Edmonton Eskimos are even with the Bombers at 2-0 and they too are bouncing back from a tough 2013 that saw them win only one more game than Winnipeg. Injuries arent helping in the Bombers pursuit of a third win. Defensive lineman Zach Anderson definitely wont be going to Montreal, OShea said. Safety Moe Leggetts status is uncertain -- Johnny Sears lined up there during Wednesdays practice -- and hurting wide receiver Aaron Kelly will be going but how much hell play is a question mark. The team is taking along Canadian Brett Carter as a backup. Kelly not only leads the Bombers with his 163 receiving yards after two games, he sits second in the CFL behind Torontos Chad Owens. OShea said Kelly hurt his knee in practice this week and left Wednesdays session early, but still expects to be able to play Friday. Carter, meanwhile, is a former Winnipeg Rifles receiver who got to work out with the team last season and even dressed for a July game, then spent the rest of the season on the practice roster. He got a late invite back to camp this season to continue his quest. "Its a crazy roller-coaster ride that I was on and it would definitely be great to start and have that opportunity but well see what the coach has to say," he said after running some first-team routes when Kelly left the field Wednesday. Montreal has split its first two games. ' ' ' |
