in consumer watch tonight, a major recall. more than a million nissans need to be fixed. it affects the frontier and xterra suvs, made between 2002 and 2004. they have a problem with the steering wheel column. nissan is also recalling other vehicles that could have problems starting. >> and a lot of people are calling for recalls over last night's game. >> just the last 40 seconds or so. >> yeah. >> you can have that back. and the ranks wouldn't mind some of the arrest of it. -- rest of it. it was a battle of the birds. atlanta, though. just a little better than baltimore. the ranks fall short in the game. but they still fit well in the play-off race. it's been a day of assessing the good and the bad of last night. anquan boldin showed his displeasure. but joe flacco and gang would get their act together with three touchdowns in the second half. this one to bolden.

now, eventually, the ranks took the late lead. matched flacco stats and more. touchdowns for him. of more than 300 passing yards. overall, yeah, it's tough to take. but the team is not giving up after this loss. we have to build off of it. realize we did a lot of things well. and we gotta get red to get a couple of days of rest. and we have carolina next week. and on the road. and we have to get ready to go after them. >> i thought baltimore played well. that's a good football team. they came out. they were physical on defense. offensively, they were opportunistic. they made some really good plays down the stretch. >> and you can't can't have a good game without controversial calls. two players grabbing each others' facemasks. but the ravens' terrell suggs is the one who is penalized. >> they said the call stands. he made that catch.

then the ravens' josh wilson got knocked down before roddy white caught the game- winning touchdown. a reason to complain? maybe. but the ravens take the high road. yeah, it was tough. it was a lot of calls that could have gone either way. a lot of highly contested, close, controversial calls there. and close catches. so it was just one of those very difficult losses. and in injury news, ravens' receiver derrick mason fears that he may again have broken the pinky finger on his right hand. he had surgery on the finger just two weeks ago. he was able to recover over the bye week. there is no official word on the team, regarding mason's injury. they do have a little more extra time to recover. next game is a week from sunday, when the ravens travel to carolina to face the panthers. it's a game you can see here on wjz. kickoff at 1:00. busy night for college basketball. towson, loyola, morgan state and copin all get their state
