Baltimore Ravens can go long

Sunday will bring good news for either the New England Patriots or Houston Texans, who will square off in the second of two AFC divisional-round matchups, as one team will advance a step closer to Super Bowl XLVII.

They'll also begin preparations for the AFC Championship Game, which they will now host by virtue of the Baltimore Ravens defeating the Denver Broncos in a double-overtime classic Saturday.

That's the good news.

The bad news? Whichever team comes out on top is going to have to work up a strategy to stop the vertical passing game of the Ravens, which exposed the Broncos secondary Saturday night.
