Baltimore, MD (Sports Network) - Baltimore Ravens wide receiver/kick returner Jacoby Jones returned a kickoff 108 yards for a touchdown, tying an NFL record.
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver/kick returner Jacoby Jones returned a kickoff 108 yards for a touchdown, tying an NFL record.
Jones turned the trick early in the third quarter against the Dallas Cowboys, joining New England's Ellis Hobbs (Sept. 9, 2007 vs. Jets) and Randall Cobb of Green Bay (Sept. 8, 2011 vs. New Orleans) in the history books.
The return also set a new Ravens franchise mark, eclipsing the 103-yard return set by David Reed in 2010.
The New England Patriots have signed unrestricted free agent wide receiver Donald Jones.
Joe Flacco threw for 309 yards and two touchdowns as the Baltimore Ravens clinched their second straight AFC North title with a 33-14 dismantling of the New York Giants at M&T Bank Stadium.
The Miami Dolphins kept their slim playoff hope alive Sunday with a 24-10 win over the Buffalo Bills, but it lasted only for a few minutes.
Colin Kaepernick vs. Ravens linebackers
The San Francisco quarterback has three runs of 50-plus yards this season using the read-option play, while the Ravens finished 20th in rushing defense (122.8 yards a game). Baltimore’s linebackers aren’t the swiftest, either — particularly Ray Lewis, who has lost a step at age 37, and Terrell Suggs, who is coming off an Achilles tendon injury. If the Ravens can’t find a way to contain Kaepernick, this game could get out of hand quickly.
Anquan Boldin vs. 49ers cornerbacks
The San Francisco 49ers are headed back to the Super Bowl for the first time since the 1994 season.
