Flacco injured season over

It's been this kind of season for the Baltimore Ravens: Even when they win, they lose.

A dramatic 16-13 victory over the St. Louis Rams on Sunday was marred by season-ending injuries to quarterback Joe Flacco and running back Justin Forsett.

Flacco tore ligaments[url=http://www.officialbuccaneersnflstore.com/AUTHENTIC+BRADLEY+MCDOUG... in his left knee in the closing seconds, but stayed with the offense until the finish despite the pain.

''I wanted to win a game,'' said Flacco, who's never missed a game over his eight-year career.

It was a rare but costly victory for the Ravens (3-7). After losing seven games by a total of 32 points, [url=http://www.officialbuccaneersnflstore.com/AUTHENTIC+AKEEM+SPENCE+JERSEY]htt... would have been a victory to savor if it didn't cost them their quarterback.

''I think it's the ACL and MCL,'' Flacco said. ''We haven't had anything pictured.''

Forsett, meanwhile, [url=http://www.saintsofficialonlineshop.com/SUPER-BOWL-ANDRUS-PEAT-JERSEY]Andru... Peat Jersey
broke both bones in his right forearm in the first quarter. He is Baltimore's leading rusher.

Justin Tucker kicked a 47-yard field goal as time expired to end a mistake-filled game in which the Ravens rallied from a 10-point deficit in the fourth quarter.

One final miscue decided the issue: Rams quarterback Case Keenum [url=http://www.saintsofficialonlineshop.com/SUPER-BOWL-ANTHONY-SPENCER-JERSEY]h... when hit by Courtney Upshaw, and teammate Lawrence Guy recovered at the St. Louis 41 with 54 seconds to go.

Flacco moved the Ravens to the 29 - injuring his knee along the way - before Tucker delivered the game-winning kick.

''It was a courageous performance by him at the end,'' coach John Harbaugh said.

St. Louis lost four fumbles and missed an extra point. In his first start of the season, Keenum went 12 for 26 for 136 yards and fumbled three times, losing two.

Keenum was selected as the Rams' starter on Monday, replacing Nick Foles in a move that coach Jeff Fisher said was designed to bolster the offense. The switch did not pay immediate dividends.
