Joe Flacco passed for 301 yards and a touchdown and Baltimore’s defense returned two interceptions for touchdowns as the visiting Ravens beat the short-handed Carolina Panthers 37-13 on Sunday.
Baltimore (7-3) put it away with two defensive touchdowns in the fourth quarter, as Dawan Landry and Ray Lewis returned interceptions for scores.
Flacco completed 24 of 33 passes for 301 yards with a 56-yard touchdown pass to T.J. Houshmandzadeh. Ray Rice rushed for 65 yards and a touchdown for the Ravens.
Carolina (1-9) was without its top three running backs and its top two quarterbacks. Journeyman Brian St. Pierre started at quarterback for the Panthers, completing 13 of 28 passes for 173 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions.
St. Pierre, who was signed this week, threw an 88-yard touchdown pass to David Gettis to get Carolina within 20-13 with 14:56 left. But he had the two interceptions returned later in the quarter.
Mike Goodson made his second consecutive start in the backfield for Carolina and topped the 100-yard mark for the second week in a row. Goodson rushed for 120 yards on 22 carries and had five catches for 31 yards.
