Ravens return blocked field goal to beat Browns

With the Browns lined up for a potential game-winning 51-yard field goal, Brent Urban blocked Travis Coons’ attempt and Will Hill returned the kick 64 yards for the game-winning score.

The freaky set of twists and turns began with less than two minutes remaining when the Browns backup quarterback, Austin Davis (who was their third string quarterback last week behind Johnny Manziel and had not thrown a pass all season prior to the game) threw his first touchdown pass since Week 9 of last season with the St. Louis Rams.

Dallas Cowboys star Tony Romo is not the only quarterback in the National Football League to go down with a broken collarbone this season.

The latest Cleveland Browns news is that the team might decide to cut the chord with Johnny Manziel after the season, which means that Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones can finally sign him. His lady friend tries to stop him from doing it, but did you watch that game?? “I said, ‘If we get a block and it bounced my way, I’m going to take it to the end zone.’ Luckily, it did”. He completed 63.7 percent of his passes for 2,109 yards, throwing 12 touchdowns against only four interceptions.

It is extremely hard for a good team to overcome giving up two touchdowns on special teams.

“I wasn’t paying attention to anything on the inside”, Hill said.

Davis finished 7-for-10 for 77 yards and his TD to Benjamin, but quickly became a subplot on a wrenching end for the hosts before they could notch just their fifth “Monday Night Football” win since 1990.

LESSON LEARNED: Ravens rookie wide receiver Kaelin Clay returned a punt 82 yards for a touchdown in the first quarter and squeezed the ball tightly as he crossed the goal line.

But Baltimore stagnated for more than a quarter as a scrambling Josh McCown hit Marlon Moore in the endzone for a 10-yard Browns touchdown, Coons split the uprights with a 21-yard field goal and Karlos Dansby intercepted Schaub and ran back for a 52-yard pick six. “I’m not going to lie”.

Ravens coach John Harbaugh, who was a long-time special teams coach in Philadelphia, said these blocks are not something you can plan out or prepare for.

Za’Darius Smith blocked a 26-yard field goal against Jacksonville.

Davis also said he didn’t know what the Browns will do with Manziel if McCown doesn’t play against the Bengals but believes the former Heisman Trophy victor could play, per Steve Doerschuk of CantonRep.com.

Then, with McCown writhing in pain and off to the locker room, officially ruled doubtful to return, in came Davis.
