    Default Did the Ravens OLine....

    actually go the whole post season without a False Start penalty?

    I don't remember any in the last 3 games but I can't recall in the Colts game.

    Pretty amazing given Michael Oher on the line.

    That's more unbelievable than that "Blind Side" movie.

    In all seriousness the Ravens OL really played outstanding!!

    The referees as a whole just seemed to "let them play" this post-season. Holding wasn't called much at all in general. On the Graham OT INT at Denver, Kruger was seriously held as he tried to turn and chase Peyton out of the pocket. It was blatant, out in the open, the automatic flag variety. On replays you can even hear someone (I think Kruger) screaming "Come on!" as Manning releases the pass...

    Great observation...but ...

    They only had one, which is amazing because of the situations, and that they had three non-home games.

    The series before the Mile High Miracle. The set of downs that they failed to convert the 4th down. Fortunately, we've forgotten about that, the dropped pass, and the very good defensive play on Pitta on 4th down.

    Think back to when there would be 1-3 a game. And only one sack due to a bit of miscommunication or the wrong assignment.

    And how many holding calls? One? And Flacco converted that 3rd and 20+
