Flacco, Ravens survive Ben-less Steelers
Joe Flacco - QB - Baltimore Ravens
Nov. 19, 2012 - 12:45 AM ET
Joe Flacco completed 20-of-32 passes for 164 yards, zero touchdowns and zero interceptions in Baltimore's 13-10 Week 11 win over the Steelers.
Baltimore's third straight win over the Steelers was no thanks to Flacco, who was again helpless on the road. Flacco could complete only one pass on seven targets to Torrey Smith, and was a woeful 4-for-12 on third-down conversions. Flacco barely out-played Pittsburgh's statue-esque Byron Leftwich, who actually threw for 37 more yards. Flacco has now amassed just three touchdowns in five road games this season, and is sporting a QB rating south of 70.0 away from M&T Bank Stadium. It's unacceptable play for a contract-season, fifth-year pro. Flacco will look to make a bigger impact in Week 12, when the Ravens travel west to San Diego.
