The Ravens opened their Dec. 4 game against the Miami Dolphins in typical 2016 fashion, using their no-huddle offense and a good mix of plays to barrel down the field toward the goal line.
Quarterback Joe Flacco used several different targets to exploit the middle of the Miami defense as he attempted to get his team off to yet another fast start.
But on first-and-goal from the Dolphins' 3, Flacco knew there was one person he could count on.
Receiver Mike Wallace, a former Dolphin eager to make a mark against his old team? Wallace lined up as part of a bunch formation on the left side, so surely, a slant pass -- a frequent Ravens red-zone tool -- would be going to him.
