OWINGS MILLS, Md. - The Baltimore Ravens realize their collapse against the San Diego Chargers probably created a rockier path to the playoffs.The 34-33 defeat Sunday did not, however, severely damage their chances of returning to the post-season after last years 8-8 struggle.Baltimore (7-5) stands tied for second place in the AFC North with Cleveland and Pittsburgh behind Cincinnati (8-3-1), which still has two games left against the Steelers.The Chargers are the only team in the wild-card hunt at 8-4, but theyve got a tough schedule in December: New England, Denver, San Francisco and Kansas City.So the Ravens have reason to be optimistic, even after blowing a 10-point advantage in the final six minutes of a rare home defeat.We had a real opportunity to capitalize if wed have held that lead. It would have put ourselves in good position, coach John Harbaugh said Monday. But we find ourselves in good position anyway, the way its shaking out. Its going to be very competitive (and) down to the wire to make the playoffs, to win the division, and we are in the thick of it.Baltimore travels to Miami on Sunday. After that, the Ravens host Jacksonville, travel to Houston and wrap up the regular season at home against Cleveland.We have a huge game down in Miami this week, Harbaugh said. There will a lot on the line and theyll be ready and theyre good. Well have a great opportunity to make a move.For Baltimore to reach the post-season, its pass defence must improve. Philip Rivers threw for 383 yards and four touchdowns to bring San Diego back and saddle the Ravens with their first home loss in November since 2009.Baltimore defensive co-ordinator Dean Pees tried just about everything to stop Rivers, including rotating cornerbacks and calling a variety of blitzes.Nothing worked. The Chargers converted nine of 11 third-down tries and punted only once.Weve got to make some plays back there, Harbaugh said. We had a couple things that were issues as far as assignments. We didnt play the routes a couple times right, gave up a couple big plays. Thats really what it boils down to. The other balls were contested balls and contested catches for the most part.It wasnt just the secondary. Rivers threw 45 times and was sacked only twice, and on one of them he got back to the line of scrimmage.We didnt hit him enough, defensive end Chris Canty said. He was able to get the ball out on time to his receivers. We take great pride in being able to rush the passer, but we didnt make enough plays up front and help our guys on the back end enough. That hurt us.Penalties were a factor, too. The Ravens were flagged a whopping 14 times for 98 yards, with many of the fouls coming at the absolute most inopportune time.Two of those penalties occurred during the final, decisive drive. A sack of Rivers was wiped out when linebacker Elvis Dumervil was offside, and a pass interference call against Anthony Levine set up Rivers game-winning, 1-yard touchdown throw with 38 seconds remaining.We have a category we call foolish penalties, Harbaugh said. We had too many of those unnecessary penalties that you dont gain anything from and cost us. Unfortunately, the penalties that we had, especially on defence, were the ones that gave them a chance to extend those drives.After the Ravens went up 30-20, Daryl Smith was called for holding on a third-down incompletion. Rivers threw a touchdown pass on the next snap.Plays like that made watching the film Monday tough to take.Were better than that, Harbaugh said. We can do better than that, and that was a disappointing part of it.___Online: AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL Jaire Alexander Jersey .com) - John Wall had 15 points, 12 assists and four steals as the Washington Wizards defeated the New Orleans Pelicans 92-85 on Monday night.

Ray Petkau issued the following statement pertaining to a Tuesday night tweet, clarifying that it was not a direct response to Leafs head coach Randy Carlyle. "The tweet I sent out last night, while inadvertently relevant to other comments made was not a response to post game comments from Randy Carlyle or James Reimer," Petaku said in a statement. "I didnt hear those interviews until later." Petaku was clarifying his tweet from Tuesday night following the Leafs 3-2 loss to the Detroit Red Wings that read: "As is customary in Toronto, when your team plays poor defensively game after game you blame your goalie." The tweet was believed by some to be a reaction to Carlyles post-game comments in which he labeled Reimers performance in Detroit as being "just okay." Petakus remarks came after Reimer has suddenly been thrust back into the Leafs starting role with Jonathan Bernier nursing a groin strain. In the last three games - including the Mar. 14 test against the Los Angeles Kings that saw Bernier go down -&nbssp;the team has gone 1-2.dddddddddddd Reimer has posted a .936 save percentage over those three games, allowing six goals total. That stretch includes two perfect periods to finish off the victory over the Kings where Reimer stopped 31 shots in 40 minutes. "Obviously this has been a trying season for James but those are issues that we will deal with in the off-season," Petakus statement continued. "Twitter is not the place for that but the timing of my tweet necessitated further comment under these circumstances." "Having the confidence of teammates, coaching staff and a team of supporters around them is imperative for a goalies success, especially in a big hockey market. I will always have my clients back." Reimer is in the final year of a three-year deal he signed with the Leafs prior to the 2011-12 season worth an average annual value of $1.8 million. He is eligible to become a restricted free agent on July 1. In 29 games with the Leafs this season, Reimer is 11-10-1 with a .913 save percentage and a 3.22 goals-against average. He started 33 games for the Leafs in the lockout-shortened 2012-13 season, posting a 2.46 GAA and a .924 save percentage.
