Ravens RB Willis McGahee scored on a 19-yard run late in the third quarter to give Baltimore a 41-3 lead.

Ravens coach John Harbaugh went with a three-headed running back rotation, so it is fitting that all three backs share the game ball. McGahee had a pair of scores, but Ray Rice led the team with 219 total yards to go with a touchdown. Le'Ron McClain added a score and 32 rushing yards on six attempts.
