OWINGS MILLS, Md. — The Baltimore Ravens have lost three of their past four games. Joe Flacco is coming off his worst game of the season. The NFL’s top-ranked defense looks vulnerable.
So, what is the first question asked of Flacco this week: Why did he shave his beard?
“It’s not like we’ve been winning with it,” Flacco said. "So, we’ve all got a little bit of superstition in us, I guess.”
That’s one way to try to end a two-game losing skid heading into Sunday’s game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
