For the 8th time in his career, Steve Smith Sr. has eclipsed the 1,000-yard single season receiving mark. He hauled in eight passes for 90 yards in this game, finishing the season with 79 receptions and 1,065 yards. There was doubt about how much production the 14-year veteran had left in him, but he has answered that here in the 2014 season.

Torrey Smith came alive late in this game. With the Ravens down by four in the fourth quarter and in desperate need of a big play, Flacco launched a jump ball to Torrey Smith who leaped up and came down with a 53-yard reception. On the very next play, Flacco found Smith in the end zone for a 16-yard score to give the Ravens the lead. He finished with four receptions for 83 yards.

Kamar Aiken came down with a game-sealing two-yard touchdown pass at the 3:44 mark of the fourth quarter.

Grade: A-
