The Ravens and Falcons spent the opening quarter driving to near midfield before booting the ball away to the opposition. The second frame opened with an exception. A protracted exception, but an exception.
Ravens Vs. Falcons: Atlanta Marches 91 Yards For Game’s First Score
The Falcons plodded unstoppably down the field on a 14-play, 91-yard drive that ended with a Matt Ryan dumpoff pass to Jason Snelling that went for a 26-yard touchdown. Ravens safety Dawan Landry had a chance to stop Snelling inside the five, but Snelling plowed over him into the end zone.
On a key 3rd and 5 from the Ravens’ 38, Matt Ryan hit Tony Gonzalez hit 14 yards and a key first down. Ed Reed had tried to undercut the route but was much too slow in his execution.
