AP, OWINGS MILLS, MarylandThe Baltimore Ravens on Sept. 29 last year gave up 30 points in the second half of a 40-25 loss at home to the Cleveland Browns that dropped their record to 2-2. Flash forward to last Sunday, when Baltimore completed the regular season with a 12-game winning streak by beating the Pittsburgh Steelers 28-10. The Ravens rested seven starters, because they had already clinched the top seed in the American Football Conference playoffs for the first time in franchise history. “And boy, did we ever find out — 12 wins later.”The Ravens enter the post-season with a first-round bye. Backup running back Gus Williams rushed for 711 yards and the Ravens finished with more yards rushing (3,296 yards) than any other team in NFL history.
