Ravens Continue in Playoffs; Next Up: New England

The Baltimore Ravens outplayed the Pittsburgh Steelers Saturday in the AFC wild card game, 30-17.

It was the first time the Ravens have beaten the Steelers in Pittsburgh in the postseason, according to Pittsburgh station WTAE-TV.

Among the highlights, Terrell Suggs caught one interception between his knees at Heinz Field.

Joe Flacco was on the move, while Ben Roethlisberger was sidelined for a concussion evaluation in the fourth quarter briefly, then returned to throw a pick in the end zone.

Next up, the Ravens will play the New England Patriots at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, MA, at 4:30 p.m. on Saturday, Jan. 10.

The Ravens faced New England in 2013 before winning the Super Bowl. They won that game in Foxborough, 28-13, and ESPN reported it was the first time the Patriots had lost an AFC championship game on their home turf.

“These guys are a good football team,” Flacco told NBC Sports Saturday night, looking ahead to the matchup against the Patriots. “We’re going to have to be on top of everything to go in there and get a victory.”
