How can Ravens improve next season? More points, less Al Pacino

In reflecting on this past season, Baltimore Ravens coach John Harbaugh thought about a 1999 football movie.

"I go back to one of my favorite scenes from any movie, 'Any Given Sunday' -- the Al Pacino talk, the 'game of inches' talk -- and how true that really is," Harbaugh said.

This is Harbaugh's favorite scene, but it illustrates one of his biggest frustrations. These "Pacino games" are why the Ravens have a losing record (31-33) since winning the Super Bowl.

Baltimore has played in 44 games decided by one score over the last four seasons -- the most of any team in the NFL -- and has gone 20-24 in those games.
