Ravens...24 Redskins...10
Given their uneven performance against the Baltimore Ravens, the Washington Redskins must be glad they don’t face their so-called rivals on a regular basis.
Ed Reed set up a touchdown with an interception and scored on a 22-yard fumble return, part of a stifling effort by the Baltimore defense in a 24-10 victory.
With their seventh win in eight games, the Ravens (9-4) enhanced their stature in the wild-card race and remained one game behind Pittsburgh in the AFC North. Baltimore plays host to the Steelers on Sunday.
Washington (7-6) has lost four of five. The Redskins trailed, 17-0, before scoring twice in the fourth quarter after Baltimore turnovers.
Jason Campbell threw two interceptions and was sacked twice, and Clinton Portis had only 32 yards rushing.
Quoteworthy: “We were 6-2 and now we’re 7-6 and you find that hard to believe.” -- Jason Campbell, Redskins quarterback
