Ravens shake their ghost of Christmas past with late defensive stand

BALTIMORE -- Maurice Canady's breakup of a fourth-down pass intended for T.Y. Hilton sealed the Baltimore Ravens' 23-16 win over the Indianapolis Colts, allowed the Ravens to maintain control of their playoff fate and helped Baltimore shake its ghost of Christmas past.

Last Christmas night, the Ravens were unable to stop the Pittsburgh Steelers on a last-minute drive, which was capped by Antonio Brown's "Immaculate Extension" touchdown. It eliminated Baltimore from the postseason.

Almost exactly a year later, Baltimore stopped Indianapolis in the red zone to underscore a point of emphasis.
