Ravens: Up against it already
Sure enough, Peyton Manning dropped a huge play on the Ravens on that first possession, the 66-yard strike to Pierre Garcon setting up a quick touchdown and putting the onus on Joe Flacco and the offense to answer.
The Ravens dodged a bullet on a Lardarius Webb fumble on the ensuing kickoff, getting the play overturned on replay, but need to do something with this first possession to change the early momentum. So far, they've largely kept the ball on the ground and have grinded out two first downs.
Footloose: The Ravens had to burn a timeout moments ago because Jared Gaither and Ben Grubbs both threw a shoe. When was the last time you saw that happen?

Who throws a shoe? Honestly!

Pete's reply: I don't know. Obviously, they had a bad lacing day.

Thoroughbreds throw shoes in races quite frequently. It's a shame we didn't see some of the Colt offensive linemen throw theirs. Must have a really good blacksmith.
