Joe Flacco, Ravens Just Had Their Best Best Game Of The Year

BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- Not only did the Baltimore Ravens put up some of the best numbers this season, including their highest scoring game with 38 points, during Sunday's game, but quarterback Joe Flacco had one of his best, and most accurate, games of the season.

Joe Flacco went 36-of-47 for 381 yards, passed to 10 different receivers, had four touchdowns and just one interception. His 36 completions in Sunday's game, set a new single-game career high for the veteran QB.

His quarterback rating for the week was 119.2,which landed him in the No. 1 spot for passing leaders ahead of Matthew Stafford, Andy Dalton and Drew Brees.

Tight end Dennis Pitta finally found the end zone and was responsible for two of the Ravens' touchdowns.

Justin Tucker is now 8-for-8 on 50+ yard field goal attempts this season, and is tied for the 2nd-most 50-yard field goals in a season in NFL history.

And let's not forget about the defense. The Dolphins simply could not manage any momentum against the Ravens' No. 2-ranked defense, which allowed just 277 total yards.

Lardarius Webb and Eric Weddle both had game-changing interceptions, Tannehill was sacked twice and Miami was held to just 277 yards the entire game.

Next up, Baltimore will play on the road against New England.Best game of the year.
