Huge Win on Thursday Night

Eric Weems Written by Eric Weems Friday November 12 2010

It was a huge win for us on Thursday night and it was a nice comeback victory for us as well.

 

When the Ravens took the lead late in the fourth quarter with just over a minute to play in the game, we still believed that we had a chance to win the game.

 

The Ravens are a tough team and we both fought each other hard throughout the game.

 

It was a good game coming off of a short week with the game being on Thursday night, but we felt we were well prepared and we gave it our all for 60 minutes and came out with the victory.

 

I didn’t get much of a chance on kickoffs during the game because Ravens kicker Billy Cundiff kept kicking the ball deep into the end zone so I had to take a knee and have the team start on the 20-yard line.

 

That is what happened right before our last drive right after the Ravens scored to go ahead with just over a minute left in the game.

 

Matt Ryan had great patience on that last drive and made all of the right throws to lead us down the field to win the game. Matt has the right nickname in “Matty Ice” because he truly does have ice in his veins when it comes to game winning drives, especially at home where we are 18-1 with Matt at the helm.

 

After we scored, I was on the kickoff team and I ran down the field at full speed and made the tackle on Ravens kick returner David Reed at the ten yard line.

 

It was a huge play for me and the team as it put the Ravens in a spot where they would have to go 90-yards in 20 seconds to win the game. Our defense held and we won the game.

 

Now we have the rest of the weekend off to get some needed rest and then we get back to work on Monday to prepare to play the St. Louis Rams next weekend.
