WATCH: Late drama as Baltimore Ravens reach playoffs
Monday 31 December 2018 18:36, UK
The final weekend of the 2018 NFL regular season certainly lived up to the hype, particularly the thrilling finish to the game in Baltimore.
In the closing stages of the Ravens' game against the Cleveland Browns, they led 26-24, knowing that a win was good enough to guarantee them a playoff place as the winners of the AFC North.
But, the Browns had possession of the football late on and were edging ever-closer into game-winning field goal range. Any win for Cleveland would see the Pittsburgh Steelers - 13-10 winners over the Cincinnati Bengals - take Baltimore's postseason place.
Cue the late drama...
Click on the video above to watch what proved to be the final play of the game, Ravens linebacker C.J. Mosley intercepting Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield to trigger wild scenes of celebration in Baltimore and devastation for players and fans watching on in Pittsburgh.
Mayfield might have thrown the late game-defining pick, but the Browns QB had another terrific outing and his touchdown passes in the game took his to 27 for the season. A new NFL record for a rookie.
