allowed right throughout. they are all still here. lardarius webb who has one return, all of the way to the house earlier this year in a foot race. webb took it and protected it well as williams tried to strip him all of the way to the 26. what an impact on the game for lar darius webb. 68-yard return. >> jon: this is the achilles heel of the green-bay packers, they have really been victimized all season long by poor special teams. they've had injury, whatever you want to say, ron. lardarius webb just takes the momentum, right out of this crowd. >> mik >> ron: we saw shawn souisham o the sideline. >> mike: ravens need a couple gains to score. they can't go backwards. woodson and matthews takes him to the sideline. ray rice has been handcuffed all night. >> jon: ask charles woodson pursuing, and finishing. woodson man-to-man coverage. sees the ball hand off, and sees ray rice cut it back and that's an outstanding play by woodson once again looking for a trip. >> mike: that's great stuff. that's not what you think of when a guy is defensive player of the year. think of picks, sacks when a play like that is so huge. >> mike: he has 60 tackles, number two on the team. >> mike: they gain three. second and seven. pressure picked up. here's a shot to the end zone for williams. demetrius can't catch it but in a shocking development. we have pass interference flag. >> mik >> jon: my goodness. that's a ninth pass interference we've had this evening. >> referee: pass interference, number 38, defense, first down, 1 yard line. >> jon: joe flacco sees tramon williams, and saying we're not messing with woodson, we are going to throw it up to whoever is over there. i don't know what to say. i mean, there's some jostling taking place. everybody is pushing them. fighting a little bit. football! >> jon: i've never seen a game like this. ngata is in. over the tackle shot. chester to the left. mcgahee is stopped by woodson again. >> jon: well, he's a guy, ron, he's got my vote for mvp. take a look at this play on the goal line. a lot of corners don't even play in this situation. here he is. diving out and making an impact play. not a lot of cornerbacks. even dream of that kind of play. >> ron: spectacular. what a night's had. what a season he's had. >> jon: jon i concur. i give him my defensive player of the year vote. >> mike: defense. the sheriff just said wait a minute. he said hold the phone. what about drew brees. >> mike: second and goal time-out. ravens. wait, flag first, tonight, probably? >> referee: there is no foul for delay of game. >> mike: we've already had 20 penalties, what's another flag amongst friends. time-out. >> mike: got a lot of stred people in the new york area. jets and giants' fans as these two teams impact them in the wild card. fan was miami. dolphins off their win yesterday. and of course steeler fans. their team is 6-6. jets and miami, they are hoping baltimore loses and cops back to them at 6-6 tonight. a little confusion here. second and goal. they send heap back out, get mason over here on this side. flacco rolling right, looking right. there's nothing there. buys himself some time and throws across his body. that is awful, intercepted by williams. well, for joe flacco, that's inexcusable. he did a great job avoiding the sac but tried to make a play that just wasn't there. you're in field goal change r range. throw it away. go to third down. joe is just made a bad decision. >> jon: well, the ball is designed to go here or here jaws, they are going to look at number three coming on the back side drag route. clearly flacco doesn't have heap, doesn't have mclean, now becomes a scramble drill play, wouldn't you know it there's that guy tramon womans, what did charles woodson say to us the other way, he said i'll them you what he like about tramon williams, he has a short memory. he should have one tonight because he's had some terrible p.i.s and he hung in there and might make the play of the night. >> ron: like a quarterback, great quality is amnesia. move on to the next play. he certainly has amnesia, what a terrific play. >> mike: guys, the killer, second down. you need a field goal on the comeback. you can see how companies broke free for the second. all the way across the body with that much air under it. >> ron: if joe wants to make that play, throw it to the back of the end zone where his receiver makes a play. >> mike: each team three penalties, each team three turnover. grant, right. gain of three, "sportscenter right now." trey wingo. thank you, allen iverson after the emotional press conference made his return to philadelphia tonight. had 11:37. as usually the sixers come up losers. meanwhile comings and goings at south bend. jimm jimmy clausen. will forgo his senior year. brian kelly interviews for the head coaching job tomorrow. heck of a game at lambeau. >> yes t-is. appropriate as each team has three turnover in the game tonight. >> you have the "a" game. >> mike: no that was marty the stat guy. i got to give marty that. second and seven inside eight minutes now, again mike mccarthy always talked about this team being able to line up and run it. here's one from the times you want to be able to do that and kill some clock. >> mike: green bay loves one, two and three. i don't know the exact stats like do you, ron. green bay packers convert more in that down and distance than any team i've ever seen. they dominate on third down and three or less like no team i've ever seen. they own this situation, at least they have through the first 11 games. >> mike: kelly gregg go off, shean up. will be a third and three throw. and no conversion. as jones was being followed by domonique foxworth. so a good job of the ravens' fence at three and out and chance to get a good field position with 7:12 remaining. >> ron: this is the area jon alluded to, packers offense is very good. they disconnected on the throw. >> jon: i can't say enough about the defense, they battled through tough injures. going through the block here. >> mike: very poor punting team too. if they don't get the block they might get decent field position. had one block this year. well protected and a good kick. one of the best. 52 yards. took carr back to the 21, they'll go back to the 26. well covered by the packers. down ten. 7:00 left. wild card situation before chase. wild card, at the moment belonged to denver, jacksonville, 7-5 and raven loss although the remaining path is the easiest to look at the right column. dolphins jets, steelers, all pull even. baltimore is playing the first tonight of three consecutive games against the nfc north. and they get the teams at the bottom of the division, detroit and chicago next couple of weeks in maryland. then have the rematch of the steelers and go to oakland,ly is, go to oakland. that's the steelers. about playing oakland. flacco, down the seam for heap. intercepted by a.j. hawk. down at 41. and a flag on the back end. flacco, intercepted on back-to-back plays. >> jon: they have really worked hard. >> referee: during the return, illegal block in the back. number 77 of the intercepting team. ten-yard penalty will be first down. >> jon: they had really worked hard to get the ball to todd heap. you'll see these two safety, they try to get heap on the middle read but a.j. hawk carries todd heap right down the seam. watch him flip his head and find the ball and make a lech of a catch away from his body. that's why he's a first-round draft choice, jaw, that's a heck of a play by a.j. hawk. >> ron: couldn't agree with you more. you go with the play action, try to hold the underneath coverage. a.j. hawk did not bite it. flacco tried to squeeze it into the tight window, throw wasn't there. saw the athleticism. make the play -- just an outstanding play by a.j. hawk. he played like a wide receiver. >> mike: 6:48 left. armond green. good carry. talk about hawk making that pick, fourth in his career. remember he was the fifth overall pick in '06. conversation around here, there's been a dearth of big plays. number six pick you expect a game changer. that hasn't been there. there's a very significant one right there. >> jon: no question about it. this is a playoff play. right here. september the pass inside seven minutes. a.j. hawk had over 100 tackles three straight yooers fears, foo make a play good for him. three-four now, run up the middle with green for the first down. this is when you have to be able to run the football. i don't care if you run for 250 yards. this is when you have to run it. >> jon: but look at the right guard, center, left guard. fullback. this is old school green bay packer football. that's old school green bay packer back. that's green delivering right here. they need to run some clock and no better way to do it than on the ground with a back that's been there and done that, and he's fresh. grant is fine, standing on the sideline here armond green finished a few games at lambeau. gain of a couple yards. his story, 6-1, 1,000-yard seasons. went to houston to play for the texans in '07, '08. 14 games played for the texans did armond green, was at a football. aim here, week seven gives a couple of snaps there as he goes over to the mench. >> ron: you hear so much of vince lombardi a seal here and seal here and alley here, that's packer football. jim taylor around the football. driver -- jennings, i beg your parted, 23 for a first down. >> jon: there it is again. the signature route of the green bay packer off phelps has been that way for years, outside foot is back, a three-step slant, breaking sharply at a 45 degree angle. i sound like vince lombardi talking about the slant. these green bay packer, i tell you it started with sterling sharpe. he went to robert brooks, brooks to freeman, freeman to driver, driver to jennings, they've drafted and developed receivers as well as any team i know of, green bay packers can all run the slant. even against that outside guys playing them inside. they still get it. >> mike: good continuation of the run to take it inside the 20 and into the red zone. this is a little bit when you talked about, jon. green bay -- you don't think of green bay in hassing, unless favre starts to come up. cold weather, i think you have receivers and get these guys to be so productiveproductive. torch passing is the point you made. >> jon: start was sterling sharp. you see them in the short sleeved shirts. best player i ever coached. he wore short sleeves in 50 below zero weather. he was a great receiver, but he started it. donald driver is the all-time leading receiver here, i love watching him compete. >> mike: grant runs up near the 20. ravens take a time-out as they have two remaining. >> jon: take a look at sterling sharpe 1993 coldest game in green bay packer history. he's wearing short sleeves. look at all theser offensive lineman wearing long sleeves. that's right. sterling sharpe is the godfather, in my opinion of this green bay packer passing game that mike holmgren brought in here in 1992. >> ron: offensive lineman wearing long sleeves you can't do that. >> jon: i used to stand underneath that tunnel. it was cold. i was coaching the guy. he lad to catch 84 passes before any game. i had to throw my cape off an throw them balls. >> ron: did you come out in short sleeves? did you dress warm? there he is. nice boots. >> jon: i look like an astronaut. sterling sharpe -- >> mike: how about that look? you still have those? can we tell the world? you know what we did, i took him shopping for boots today. that's what my career has come to. i'm boot shopping for a super bowl winning coach. third and eight. more you can do, mike. >> mike: one time-out left for the ravens, shy of the first at the 15. be careful not to get a flag on that. james jones thrown to the ground. forward progress was called and whistled and conversation as dejuan landry ends up on the other sideline. meantime with 2:33 left here. packers try a field goal and ravens let the clock run. green bay can take it down to 2:07. >> jon: i know that guy. >> ron: he was a neighbor, wasn't he? >> mike: they're watching the play clock. play clock reset. it was interesting. they could have run it down to 2:07, ravens sideline asked what's going on? they thought they were going to run the play. before the two-minute warning. they reset the play clock and john harbaugh can't believe it. otherwise they would have used this time-out on this side of the two-minute warning. when they pumped the play clock out it changed the whole equation of clock math. stuart scott back on "monday night football." after the game the sierra postgame report. all of the highlights and analysis from the frozen sun dra. talk about practice it wats first game aft sixers, mark. >> thanks, you, steve and matt millen will stay warm here. john harbaugh was getting an explanation how the clock was administered at the back end before the two-minute warning. clearly they would have used the time-out to stop the clock on this side of the two-minute warning to preserve time for himself. he's trying to get an explanation. you saw jim harbaugh over there on the sideline, his brother, the coach at stanford, complaining as well. former raven, former bear who played here at lambeau. where is your dad? >> mike: he's here. have another field goal attempt by crosby. remember he missed one earlier from 38. this is 38 and it's good. two touchdown game needed from flacco with 1:56 and one time-out remaining. >> ron: i think green bay right now has got to cover this kick like they've never covered all year. they lost the tampa game by their inability to cover with a two-score lead. >> mike: we saw that earlier. guy, tonight, 300 total yards of penalty, that's the fourth largest penalty yard total of the history of the nfl. bucs and seahawks equally competent. that game was played at fenway. this game at lambeau is the first time in the 53 years of football here that both teams have had over 100 yards of penalty. but the packers have had that happen, a couple of other times. one game played at wrigley field, and one game that we just showed you played at fenway. so the oldest ballparks were -- where it's still being played in america. fenway wrigley and lambeau had that designation. 100 yards of penalties on both teams. >> ron: how about baltimore, 146 yards of total offense. 106 yards in penalties. >> mike: webb big kick return takes it from the 8, and is brought down at the 25. that's what jon is talking about. well covered led by brandon schiller on that stop and mccarthy labors it. next monday night we'll see kurt warner and cardinals, do they surprise you? larry fitzgerald and company. 8-4 we'll see patrick lewis and frank gore, see their season can go to 5-7 monday night. niner fans talking about going into that game. if they beat seattle and arizona lost to favre and the vikings. they have a chance to maybe tie for the division. instead it flips the other way. >> ron: didn't take care of business. >> mike: 1:52, one time-out. ravens need two touchdowns. but first a flag. chuck -- >> referee: false start number 74 offense, five-yard penalty still first down. >> jon: all of the publicity brett favre had this year, it's a great story. i have a feeling if green bay gets into the playoffs, they would love to have one more shot at the minnesota vikings. aaron rodgers, i'm sure would relish that. but they have got to clean up the penalties, they know that. tramon williams, number 38, i think has been victimized three times. but they have to push the ball down the field. here they might get another one. >> mike: run here with rice up the middle getting big yardage, getting 21 yards. as the ravens are in the no-huddle mode obviously with over 100 seconds with one time-out. >> ron: this packer defense is much improved overdom caper, what a turn around. players adapt to the scheme. all the changes on the defensive side, the confusion they create. flacco's pass for heap is incomplete. 1:23 to go. >> jon: a.j. hawk has come on as pass defender. a lot of people think a.j. hawk is a run stopping linebacker but he's held his own and played extremely well against todd heap. a pretty darn good tight end tonight. >> ron: that was the knock. he was a liability in the passing game. intercept he made on the roll out to todd heap, he was athletic. that's the play that keeps him on the field for plays in passing situations. >> mike: flacco missed the last five passes, last six passes, two of them intercepted. jared bush comes up to make a play. >> jon: this has been a situation joe flacco dominated this year. his fourth quarter numbers are better than most guys. tonight two interceptions, six straight incompletions. this raven pass offer fence hasn't taken offer tonight. their entire offense still well under 200 yards for the night. >> ron: you mentioned fourth quarter numbers. almost 68% complete. 9.5 yards per pass but that hasn't happened this evening. >> mike: pass caught by kelly washington. he took it into packer territory. we wind down to about a minute for the next snap. >> mik >> ron: well, the ravens got to get moving. got to be a sense of urgency, clock at 1:00 minute, they are taking their time. g getting set here, they got to pick it up. >> mike: bite be better off incomplete there. b.j. raji with the pressure, guys, if the ravens lose this they are 6-6 tied with four teams essentially seventh in the wild card chase. two home games with the lions and bears then the return game against the steelers and both teams desperate to knock each other out. at the raiders to close on january 3rd. >> jon: baltimore got to throw the ball to the end zone. hope they get a p.i. or play. but the checkdowns are not going to cover it. 50 seconds left p. down the field, did you say pass interference? >> mike: here many cottses a blitz down the middle. picked up and throw for a yard. >> ron: throwing the flat is not going to help you out. >> mike: they're going to take another time-out. they go 8-4 going to chicago. but if you notice the weather like tonight they get cold games too the rest of the way. in chicago against the bears they face the steelers as well. the seahawks back here at lambeau to close the home schedule on december 27 and they will be in arizona on january 3rd and who knows what the cardinals will be playing for at that point. you just don't know. a lot to do in the final quarter of the season. >> ron: i alluded to a moment ago. this defense is much improved. they are young, fast. we all know they have offense. darren rodgers and a plethora of wide receivers.nine, baltimore n time-outs, will have a false start penalty. >> referee: false start offense, five-yard penalty. still third down. >> mike: i feel like it's a pinball game. just keep adding up the yards. what did you say that was? now we're up to:10, mike. >> mike: like the jerry lewis telethon. let's check the tote board we're going up. we've hit one of the lowest points in modern football. we've tied a record between the bucs and seahawks in 1976. >> ron: no comment. >> mike: i mean, really. 310 penalty yards. >> jon: i hope it never happens again. >> mike: we're up to the second most. we still got 43 seconds left. one p.i. down the field we could be number one. >> mike: what a memory that will be to take. that and the cheese head. i'll never forget it. and gruden's new boots. >> mike: i'm shopping. third and 14. heap out of bounds for the 39. really, i just don't understand what good that does with
