8:39 pm
great job of blocking. >> michele: you move to 8-2 now. the next time you have these guys is two weeks away from your place. what do you expect it will be like? >> we have san diego first and my mind is there on san diego. >> michele: congratulations, jacoby. >> thank you. >> michele: on night you weren't a starter, corey graham, a physical game. you came up with huge plays when it mattered. how did you come up with this performance? >> you have to come out here and play. the figure i have to do my best and try to be a difference maker. >> michele: this game is always physical, hard-hitting. we see it. what is it like to play in it? >> to be honest, my first time witnessing it and living up to expectations and tried to be as physical as we could and the guys played as hard as they could and we got a victory. >> michele: in two weeks you face the steelers again. you expect anything different? >> i don't expect anything different. the guys will play hard. i don't know if big ben is going

to be here but they will play hard regardless and we have to find a way to get a win. >> michele: congratulations. >> thank you. appreciate it. >> so i can sleep tonight, i said corey graham had a big late hit. i didn't mean it was illegal. i meant a big hit late in the game. but you probably incurred that anyby. let's bring in tony dungy. your reaction to tonight's game and in one sense, typical between the ravens and steelers in that it was close, but there were aspects of it that were anything but typical. >> exactly. john harbaugh and the ravens have to be ecstatic. this whole season, it's been ray rice and joe flacco and the offense carrying them. but they got big plays from their defense and their special teams. in fact, rice and flacco were subpar tonight. but they got an early fumble recovery and ed reed seems to be a magnet to that football. this gave them three points early in the game and got them started when the offense was struggling a little bit. then jacoby jones talked about that punt return and the

blocking that he got. a little bit of a long kick. they outkicked their coverage and jones with tremendous speed got great blocking and these were the two plays that really turned the game around for the ravens and got them that two-game lead in the division. >> coach, byron leftwich made some good throws during the game but there were also some other throws that he might ordinarily have made, receivers were open. and it looked like he was struggling a little bit from early on in the game and that prevented him from making those throws. >> i think so. he definitely got hit. cris pointed it out and al on the game broadcast. but mike tomlin has stuck with his quarterback when he is in there and we saw that with ben roethlisberger last year, when he would get banged up and leftwich gutted it out but no question, he wasn't 100% at the end of the game. >> the ravens have now won three in a row. who do you see as the other hot team to look for down the stretch? >> well, you know, bob, everybody is going to be focused

on houston and atlanta having the best records in their conference, but i always like my teams to be hot going into december and i think there's two teams that have great quarterbacking and on hot. the green bay packers and denver broncos. green bay won five in a row and it's aaron rodgers making those big throws to carry them. i definitely would not want to play them now. then on the afc side, the denver broncos started out slowly just like green bay, but peyton manning has gotten used to those receivers. he has gotten that chemistry, that feel with them. they have won five in a row as well and i think these two quarterbacks can really be prepared to have their teams do some damage in the playoffs. >> all right, tony. thanks. lurking just on the outside, the new orleans saints now suddenly hot at 5-5 and only puts them one game out of the last wild card spot in the nfc. turning now, no shot in their division, of course. they are four back of atlanta but a shot at a wild card. we go to mike florio of pro football talk. mike, take us through some of
