Controversy with the Ravens trying to pass the ’70s Steelers for the rushing record:
www.espn.com
“Harbaugh revealed how much it meant to tie the 1974-1977 Steelers by breaking what some considered football etiquette on the final play of a 23-7 win over the Denver Broncos on Oct. 3. Instead of taking a knee with three seconds remaining, Baltimore had quarterback Lamar Jackson run for 5 yards to keep its streak of consecutive games with over 100 yards rushing alive. ESPN Stats & Information couldn’t find a single instance in the last 25 years of a team gaining yards when leading by double digits in the final five seconds, and Broncos coach Vic Fangio ripped the Ravens, saying "it was kind of bulls---."”
Also from this article:
“BALTIMORE -- The Baltimore Ravens’ pursuit of an NFL rushing record held by the 1970s Pittsburgh Steelers caused coach John Harbaugh to have a brief moment of nostalgia a week ago.
Harbaugh remembered how his childhood team, the Cleveland Browns, struggled to beat running back Franco Harris’ Steelers. He expressed his admiration for longtime Pittsburgh coach Chuck Noll and talked about how he has studied Noll’s philosophy.”

The Ravens could set the mark for most consecutive games with 100 yards rushing, perhaps proving they're the greatest rushing team of all time.

They just mentioned that Frank Reich won his first game as a quarterback in a 1989 MNF game against the Rams, in Buffalo.
Trivia note: The Blue Band performed at that game, pregame and halftime. I was there.

Flags! What the hell is going on here?
Holy shit.
Ravens have 1st and goal, and Jackson fumbles. The Colts run it back for a touchdown, after a successful lateral. 22-3, Colts, with the extra point pending.
EDIT: Fumble stands, but instead of a lateral on the return, it was an illegal forward pass. Colts ball, still 16-3.

Ravens block a game clinching field goal. Take it down to inside the five hoping for the tie. Two minute warning.
They left 7 points on the field with bad kicking. Should have won but the loss is ok with Eagles fans. 😆
