Washington and several of the other members of the secondary still need to improve their tackling.
Best behavior
The Ravens played on national television and, for the most part, behaved well. There was no excessive taunting, very little dancing over players after big hits and few fights.
Even inside linebacker Bart Scott was on his best behavior.
Another gear
Was it me, or did the Ravens' defense just look much faster than the Redskins' offense? On passing situations, it appeared the Ravens constantly beat Washington's offensive line off the snap of the ball.
The quickest player was Terrell Suggs, who kept beating the Washington offensive tackles around the corner. Suggs owned Redskins left tackle Chris Samuels, who had little help with double teams.
The drifter
Maybe because he didn't have to move as much in college, but Flacco has to become ready to throw quicker when rolling out. He's still drifting when he should be ready to throw.
New wrinkle
Every week, Ravens offensive coordinator Cam Cameron pulls out a new wrinkle or something he hasn't used in weeks to manufacture points.
The throwback pass to tight end Todd Heap for 24 yards on a fourth-and-one just inside Washington territory in the third quarter was a beauty.
Speaking of play-callers, former Ravens offensive coordinator Jim Fassel was in the press box calling the game for one of the many broadcasting teams last night.
Hot head
Television cameras showed Harbaugh smiling and the Ravens celebrating a lot on the sidelines but failed to catch some of the temper tantrums thrown by Redskins coach Jim Zorn.
Zorn had better watch himself, or he could have a meltdown like San Francisco 49ers coach Mike Singletary, and that wouldn't be pretty either.
Big, bad Rolle
With five seconds remaining in the third quarter, Campbell ran out of bounds at the Ravens' 15 instead of taking on cornerback Samari Rolle.
I never thought anybody would run away from Rolle, not even a quarterback.
Romo teases
I knew Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo was going to choke and allow the Pittsburgh Steelers to come back and win.
Until it's proved otherwise, Romo is a big tease like Vinny Testaverde.
