Observed and heard in the locker room after the Baltimore Ravens' 23-21 victory over the Cleveland Browns:
Give him the ball: Wide receiver Steve Smith was asked whether he knew he was going to get the pass just before he made the clutch 32-yard catch that put the Ravens in range for the winning field goal in the final minute of the fourth quarter. "When I line up, I think there is no better option than myself," Smith said. "That's how I practice. That's how I play."
Key adjustment: Asa Jackson provided a major momentum swing when he came off the edge and blocked Billy Cundiff's 36-yard field goal attempt in the middle of the fourth quarter. He gave a nod to special-teams coordinator Jerry Rosburg, who told Jackson during the middle of the week to switch pushing off from his right foot to his left foot. It gave him a better angle to the ball. "It ended up working out," Jackson said. "I saw the ball go. I just ran and jumped, and luckily it looked like Billy kicked it low and I was able to get a piece of it."
Half speed: Cornerback Lardarius Webb still looked like his lower-back injury was bothering him in his first game of the season. Even though he didn't start and he played limited snaps, Webb looked like he could barely move. "You can never really push something because he hasn't played much," coach John Harbaugh said. "He is coming off injury in the lower back, and he's going to have to play full speed and get his wheels back. I saw the same thing. He's going to have to get his wheels back. Hopefully, we can play him back."
