BALTIMORE - The Baltimore Ravens ran off the field, celebrating a comeback victory. No one could have imagined Cleveland would end up winning 33-30 in OT Sunday.

Phil Dawson's potential game-tying 51-yard field goal hit the upright, then seemingly tapped the crossbar before bouncing back onto the field.

As the stadium emptied, several Browns insisted Dawson's kick hit the curved center support behind the crossbar. It turns out they were right. The officials ruled the kick went through the uprights and called the teams back onto the field. The Browns took the OT kickoff and drove 43 yards in nine plays before Dawson hit a 33-yarder with 9:10 left.
