Long time coming

For a few unworldly moments, the Ravens weren't a last-place team with pent-up frustrations and unfulfilled expectations.

When Matt Stover 's 44-yard field goal sailed through the uprights with 4:09 left in overtime, it sent the Ravens cartwheeling to a 16-13 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers yesterday before 70,601 people.

As soon as the Ravens' four-game losing streak had ended, players threw their arms up high and stormed the middle of the M&T Bank Stadium field. Stover, the venerable kicker turned giddy hero, was lifted into the air by long snapper Matt Katula.
