Sometimes a less than appealing NFL matchup ends up being a pretty decent game. I was sent to Baltimore last weekend to shoot the Cardinals at the Ravens. Not much appeal there, but hey, it’s an NFL game and I can’t think of a better way to spend a Sunday in the fall.
The Ravens dominated the first half, moving the ball at will, but were unable to score touchdowns. They had a 20 - 3 lead when the Cards replaced their young quarterback Matt Leinhart with the wily veteran Kurt Warner. The offense went “no huddle” and the redbirds started moving the ball. By the 4th quarter the score was knotted at 23!
The Ravens moved into position for a game winning field goal with a few seconds left and Matt Stover drilled it though for the win. The capacity crowd of 71,000 loved it!
So that’s three game winning field goals in three weeks for me. Denver beat Buffalo with a kick as time expired in week 1. Then Detroit nipped Minnesota with a field gaol in overtime. And now this. I hope the football gods keep ‘em coming.
