The whirly-bird move was back, but Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco was just trying to make plays. Without him or receiver Torrey Smith, the Ravens would not have any serious offensive threats. Flacco got better as the game progressed, but he missed several throws, including a potential bomb to Jacoby Jones that he threw too short. Flacco finished with a quarterback rating of 97.1. He still needs to improve his accuracy. Grade: B-

A team source has confirmed that both Ray Rice, pictured, and Bernard Pierce have been struggling with injuries suffered in the preseason. In the past two weeks, Rice has gotten stronger, but Pierce hasn't shown much. Fullback Vonta Leach had 10 yards on three rushing attempts and his downhill style worked well during his spot duty. Rice finished with 45 yards on 15 carries and did break several tackles, which he hasn't done much this season. Grade: C
