Joining Ravens Triggers Michael Crabtree's Bad Super Bowl XLVII Memories

The gorgeous paintings depicting the Ravens’ Super Bowl XLVII run don’t include Baltimore’s goal-line stand.

So despite being a central figure in the Ravens’ championship five years ago, at least Michael Crabtree won’t have to re-live those moments every time he walks through the halls at his new office.

That said, becoming a Raven will definitely be a reminder of one of the more difficult moments of Crabtree’s NFL career.

Crabtree was targeted three straight times from the 5-yard line on the 49ers’ final offensive drive in Super Bowl XLVII. All three went incomplete, including a final controversial fade in which there was a lot of contact between Crabtree and Ravens cornerback Jimmy Smith.
