PITTSBURGH – Joe Flacco threw a pair of touchdown passes and the Baltimore defense forced three turnovers as the Ravens defeated the Pittsburgh Steelers 30-17 in an AFC Wild Card game on Saturday night.
Flacco was 18 of 29 for 259 yards in the win. Steve Smith had five catches for 101 yards.
The victory sets up a matchup between the Ravens and the New England Patriots next weekend in Foxboro. Baltimore defeated the Patriots on the way to victory in Super Bowl XLVII two years ago.
