3. Coming Up Big Against The Chargers

One of the most memorable moments in the Ravens history was their 16-13 win against the Chargers in 2012. The most memorable moment in that game has nothing to do with Pitta. That was the game with the fourth and 29 conversion by Ray Rice. That play was epic, but it was also an amazing game. The Ravens could not have won the game without Pitta.

The Ravens were down 13-3 in the fourth quarter. Pitta scored a huge touchdown late in the game to make it 13-10. Then in overtime, Flacco found Pitta for a huge third down conversion. Pitta had six receptions for 42 yards and a touchdown for the day.

This was one of the biggest wins in Ravens history. Without that win, the Ravens may not have survived their late season three game losing streak. Rice made one of the magical plays in the history of the Ravens. Pitta also came up big for his team.
