Ravens vs. Steelers: Mike Preston's report card
Position-by-position Ravens grade following their win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. Mike Preston: Ravens give Ryan Mallett a chance and he wins
For the first time in recent weeks, Ravens coach John Harbaugh was happy to name his starting quarterback.
“Ryan Mallett,” Harbaugh said, laughing. “I thought, ‘Can I get away with one more week not making [a starting quarterback announcement]?' Probably not.”
