The Ravens were down 25-9 with 12:04 remaining in the game. Jackson threw a 5-yard touchdown pass to Mark Andrews to cut the lead down to eight points. On the next Colts drive, Calais Campbell came up with a huge special teams play blocking Rodrigo Blankenship’s kick to give Baltimore another chance.
