The Bengals were dead in the water with just two seconds left in regulation on Sunday, and 51 yards stood between them and a game-tying touchdown. Then a miracle happened.
Andy Dalton stepped up in the pocket at midfield and threw up a prayer toward the Bengals end zone. The ball came down in a crowd of Bengals and Ravens players, but it was tipped back into the back of the end zone where A.J. Green followed the ball attentively and was able to make a leaping grab to complete the hail mary.
The score set up the overtime, giving Cincinnati new life, but the Ravens ultimately forced a turnover on downs near the 50-yard line and Joe Flacco set up kicker Justin Tucker for a 46-yard game winner.
