Before this week, the longest play from scrimmage in the 20-year history of the Baltimore Ravens was a 94-yard pass from Eric Zeier to Derrick Alexander on Dec. 7, 1997. As of the first quarter of the Ravens' Week 9 game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, that record no longer stands.
Joe Flacco and Mike Wallace hooked up for a 95-yard touchdown pass to put the Ravens ahead 7-0 en route to a 21-14 win Sunday.

Let's be honest: Wallace does most of the work here, breaking a tackle and then taking off down the sideline and outrunning two Steelers defensive backs. But a 95-yard touchdown is a 95-yard touchdown, and the longest play in franchise history is the longest play in franchise history.
It was a big one for the Ravens, too, as they entered the day one game back of the Steelers for the AFC North lead.
