The Ravens took advantage of one of a seemingly endless number of inequities in the NFL rule book to seal a 19-14 win over the Bengals on Sunday.
Holding a 19-12 lead but facing a fourth-and-3 from their own 28-yard line with 11 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter, the Ravens, despite having two unexpended timeouts, took a delay of game penalty that pushed them back to the 23. Apparently, it was all part of the plan to milk the clock.
When the ball was finally snapped to punter Sam Koch, he backpedaled into the end zone while every player on the Baltimore line blatantly held their respective opponent.
