The Ravens-Steelers rivalry has had its share of classic games, and while this 2019 version might not win a lot of style points, as usual it did have plenty of twists and turns, including a huge role from a linebacker (Josh Bynes) who was unemployed on a couch a week ago and an undrafted rookie backup quarterback (Devlin Hodges) who nearly rallied his team to an improbable victory.
Instead, though, it was a more proven commodity, specifically Justin Tucker’s right leg, that gave the Ravens a 26-23 victory over the Steelers here at Heinz Field, as Tucker hit an upright-hugging 46-yard field goal with 5:26 left in overtime.
The kick came after four plays after Marlon Humphrey forced a fumble and then recovered it to end the Steelers only overtime possession, a vindication of sorts for a beleaguered Ravens defense that surrendered more than 1,000 yards of offense over the previous two games.
