Ravens 26, Dolphins 23: Justin Tucker kicked a 44-yard field goal with 1:42 remaining in the fourth quarter to snap a tie as Baltimore ended a four-game road losing streak.
Ray Rice rushed for a pair of short-yardage touchdowns and finished with 74 yards as the Ravens (3-2) amassed a season-high 133 on the ground. Joe Flacco completed 19-of-32 passes for 269 yards - with Torrey Smith highlighting his six-catch, 121-yard performance with a leaping 14-yard reception before Tucker drilled the winning field goal.
Ryan Tannehill (21-of-40, 307 yards) rolled to his left and completed a 46-yard pass to Brandon Gibson to move within respectable field-goal range, but Baltimore recorded its sixth sack to stall the drive. Caleb Sturgis' bid from 57 yards out sailed wide left with 33 seconds to play, sending Miami (3-2) to its second straight setback.
After throwing a career-worst five interceptions last week, Flacco tossed a costly one midway through the fourth quarter. Third overall pick Dion Jordan hit the quarterback's arm as he threw, and safety Reshad Jones returned the pick for a 25-yard touchdown as Miami forged a 23-23 tie.
Tannehill tossed a touchdown pass to tight end Charles Clay for the second straight game. Mike Wallace finished with seven catches for 105 yards - although he had just one catch for six yards in the second half.
GAME NOTEBOOK: Entering the game with just 89 yards on 30 carries, Rice overcame an early fumble before his 2-yard touchdown up the middle in the third quarter forged a 13-13 tie. The Pro Bowler capped an 11-play, 94-yard drive early in the fourth by rumbling in over the left tackle from three yards out to give the Ravens a 23-13 advantage. ... Baltimore LB Terrell Suggs, who collected three sacks, tied a team record by registering at least one in each of his last five games. ... Smith has recorded at least four catches and 85 yards in each of the five games this season.
