Ravens Kicker Justin Tucker Sets NFL Record, Beats Lions With 66-Yard Field Goal



Tucker's game-winning kick is the longest made field goal in NFL history, topping Matt Prater's 64-yard kick in Denver in 2013. And Tucker added some extra flare to his record-setting blast. Sunday's field goal at the buzzer bounced off the crossbar before flying behind the end zone, only adding to Tucker's legend as one of the greatest kickers in NFL history.

Baltimore Ravens gun for 'meaningful' rushing record in lieu of ending game with QB kneel

The Baltimore Ravens might have made NFL history in how they went about matching NFL history.

With three seconds left in Sunday's game against the Broncos, the Ravens decided not to take a knee to run out the clock and instead chose to tie a 44-year-old NFL rushing record. Up 23-7, coach John Harbaugh said it was "100% my call" for quarterback Lamar Jackson to run 5 yards, which allowed Baltimore to record its 43rd straight game of 100 yards rushing.

"It's one of those things that's meaningful," Harbaugh said. "It's a very, very tough record to accomplish. It's a long-term record. So, I'm not going to say it's more important than winning the game, for sure. It's certainly not. But, as a head coach, I think you do that for your players and you do that for your coaches, and that's something they'll have for the rest of their lives."

"I'm not going to lie. I ain't really care about the record," Jackson said. "I wasn't thinking about that. I was thinking about winning the game."

Just sayin': The player definitely has more common sense than the coach. How happy would Harbaugh have been if Jackson had gotten injured on the meaningless play?

The Baltimore Ravens are targeting Michigan defensive coordinator Mike Macdonald to become the defensive coordinator on John Harbaugh’s staff, according to ESPN’s Pete Thamel. The Michigan assistant worked under brother Jim at Michigan in 2021 after multiple roles from 2014-20 with the Baltimore Ravens. Macdonald would replace Wink Martindale, who parted ways with Baltimore after the season ended.

“Can confirm via sources that the Ravens are targeting Michigan DC Mike Macdonald to (be) the next DC there,” Thamel wrote on Twitter. “A deal is expected to come together by the end of the week. Macdonald isn't on the road recruiting this week for Michigan.”

J.K. Dobbins on Tyler Huntley fumble: 'He should never have been in that situation'

An extremely frustrated J.K. Dobbins said he believes it would have been a different result had the Ravens given him the ball -- and not quarterback Tyler Huntley -- on a crucial fourth-quarter play near the goal line in Baltimore's 24-17 wild-card loss to the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday night.
.
.
.
"He should have never been in that situation," Dobbins said of Huntley. "I don't get a single carry. I didn't get a single carry. He should never have been in that situation. I believe I would have put it in the end zone, again."
.
.
.
"I'm a guy who feels like I should be on the field all the time," Dobbins said. "It's the playoffs. Why am I not out there?"

This isn't the first time Dobbins has vented about his desire to get the ball more. On Friday, he told reporters he wanted the game "on my back." Following Sunday's defeat, Dobbins mentioned that he told coaches on the sideline he wanted to be more involved.

"I should be the guy. I'm tired of holding that back," said Dobbins, who had averaged 6.9 yards per carry in four games since having a knee scoped. "I'm a playmaker. I'm a guy that my teammates feed off me when I'm on the field."
.

Dobbins didn't hold back on how much the return of Jackson would've impacted Sunday's playoff game, either.

"If we'd have had Lamar, we'd have won too," Dobbins said.
