The Baltimore Ravens nearly coughed up a victory against the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday, but Justin Tucker used his leg to give his team the victory in overtime, 41-38.
On Baltimore’s first drive in overtime, Lamar Jackson mishandled the snap and Bengals linebacker Germaine Pratt scooped it up and ran a few yards. Cincinnati thought they were set up to steal the victory in the extra period.
However, Evan McPherson missed a 53-yard field goal after a bad snap. Baltimore only needed two plays to capitalize.
Jackson handed the ball off to Derrick Henry and the monstrous running back did the rest. Henry ran for 51 yards and got the ball to the Bengals’ 6-yard line. Tucker then nailed the 24-yard game-winning field goal.
Jackson was 26-of-42 passing for 348 yards. He threw four touchdown passes in the win. Isaiah Likely had two of the touchdown catches. Charlie Kolar and Rashod Bateman each had touchdown catches. Jackson ran for another 55 yards.
