The Ravens offense had one final chance to win Sunday’s game against the Bengals.
With just more than two minutes remaining, Baltimore got possession 80 yards from a game-winning touchdown.
It was one final penalty that derailed that last-ditch effort. Left guard Kelechi Osemele grabbed linebacker Vincent Ray’s facemask as Ray came blitzing up the middle, negating a first-down reception by Steve Smith Sr. on fourth down.
That was the exclamation point on a dreadful day when it came to the yellow flags. Baltimore had 13 penalties for 116 yards, the third flags most they’ve had under Head Coach John Harbaugh (since 2008).
