For Stover, it's only fitting
Just like he did here so many times as a Raven, Matt Stover just made a clutch fourth quarter kick.
This time, it gave his new team, the Colts, a 17-15 lead over the Ravens.
Stover's 25-yard field goal capped a nine-play, 60-yard drive from Peyton Manning and the Colts that featured a questionable unnecessary roughness call on Haloti Ngata for a late hit on Indianapolis wide receiver Pierre Garcon.
Instead of Indy being at the Baltimore 48 and facing a second-and-17, they got a fresh set of downs.
Manning did the rest, hooking up with Reggie Wayne three times on the drive and getting inside the Ravens' 10.
The D made a nice stand to hold Indy to the Stover field goal, but now they've got to make a late drive to get back on top.

Totally arrogant play by Ed Reed to assume he could mnake something of that.
But, that was not the reason they lost. That offense is just not good enough. Not close. Really frustrating to see that many drives stall. And of course, it was a missed field goal that cost them big again. Thanks Ozzie!
Dan-
For all of the talk about a weak defense, both losses to Cincy and now Indy, they allowed 17 points.
The problem is the offense.
Again, lack of a WR that opens up the defense, kills this team.
This is a Colts team with injury after injury in the secondary, and we have 5 field goals?
Flacco hasn't really played well since Minn. and that was really just for 1 half.
Reed makes another bone head play. Its time for him to retire. He only gives you 75% due to his health, now he hurts the team with his "mental" health.
