Wild, Wild Finish to Baltimore/Minnesota Game With 36 Points in Final 2 Minutes!

Joe Flacco kept the Baltimore Ravens in the hunt for the playoffs with a 9-yard touchdown pass to Marlon Brown with four seconds left to put the Ravens ahead 29-26, but what is notable about this game is not the end result. No, it's how they got there.

At the start of the fourth quarter of what had been a rather dull, mistake filled game thanks to the weather conditions Minnesota took a 12-7 lead thanks to a Matt Cassell to Jerome Simpson touchdown pass. 

That lead would hold up until Joe Flacco tossed a one-yard touchdown pass to Dennis Pitta. With the two-point conversion the score became 15-12. This went down at the 2:05 mark--and that was when it got interesting!

With 1:27 to go the Vikings retook the lead 19-15 after Toby Gerhart rumbled 41-yards for a touchdown...but the fun didn't stop...

Jacoby Jones retook the lead for Baltimore by returning the ensuing kick-off 77 yards to make the score 22-19 for Baltimore...but there's more...

From Bleacher Report
With just 45 ticks on the clock Cordarrelle Patterson took a wide receiver screen pass 79 yards to the house and put Minnesota back on top 26-22!

Should have been a lock for Minnesota at that point, right? Well, I guess there is a reason why Joe Flacco get paid the big money (see first GIF)!
