Once feeling like a team divided, the Ravens spent the final seconds of yesterday's game knelt in unison, holding hands along the sideline.
When Matt Stover's 42-yard field goal sailed through the uprights, there were collective tears of joy and relief as a Ravens team that stuck together had won together, reveling in a raucous 44-41 overtime victory over the Seattle Seahawks at a less-than-full M&T Bank Stadium.
By the end - when offense, defense and special teams were all needed in the torrid comeback - they may finally have become a team.
"I think this day was a defining moment for our team," linebacker Ray Lewis said. "We never stopped believing in each other. I truly believe in my heart that we grew up as a family."
