OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- Coming off their best performance of the season, the Baltimore Ravens appear to have hit their stride at just the right time.The Ravens did just about everything right Sunday in a 38-6 rout of the Miami Dolphins, who came to Baltimore with a six-game winning streak and left with an understanding of what it takes to win in December.We didnt execute, and they pounced all over it. Thats what they do, Miami coach Adam Gase said. Theres a reason why theyve won divisions, theyve won playoff games, theyve won Super Bowls -- because they understand, at this part of the season, youve got to be on it early because it can snowball one way or the other.Baltimore (7-5) scored touchdowns on its first two possessions and coasted to the finish. The Ravens have won four of five to remain tied with Pittsburgh atop the AFC North, and they hope that momentum through a difficult final stretch.Next on the schedule: A matchup against the Patriots (10-2), whom Baltimore has defeated only once in eight regular-season meetings.Now weve got our toughest challenge, coach John Harbaugh said Monday. Were going to need to play our best football on Monday night up in New England to win that football game. We do believe we have a chance to do that, based on where were at right now.Baltimore couldnt have performed much better than it did Sunday. Joe Flacco completed a franchise-record 36 passes, four for touchdowns, as the focal point of an offense that scored 24 first-half points and finished with a season-high 496 yards.The credit goes to Joe and to the players, just for the way they executed, Harbaugh said. It was very sharp, it was very precise. We talked about that many times in here, that we were chasing that kind of precision. To see it consistently, from the beginning of the game to the end of the game, it was somethings thats been in our vision here for a while.Flacco connected with 11 different receivers and totaled 381 yards through the air. Afterward, someone asked if he considered it to be one of his memorable performances.Hey, its a December game, and it means a lot right now, but weve played a lot of meaningful games around here, truly meaningful games in January and February, so I dont want to look at this game and say something like that, Flacco said.Now in his ninth season, Flacco is a former Super Bowl MVP a veteran of 15 playoff games. But before Sunday he had only one more touchdown pass than interceptions (11-10).Joe played just extremely well and I thought all the guys around him played extremely well, too, Harbaugh said. It came together. Thats one game. Well be looking to try and improve.The point is, dominating the Dolphins probably wont mean much against the Patriots.Its not like golf, where all of a sudden you go out there and your swing starts grooving, Harbaugh said. If it was like that, then it wouldnt be football. Its tough because every single play presents a new challenge against a tough opponent thats doing everything they can within their intellect and their physical ability to thwart your efforts.The defense excelled against Miami, but thats come to be expected from a unit ranked No. 2 overall and first against the run. Miamis only touchdown came in the fourth quarter, on an 8-yard drive following a lost fumble by Ravens tight end Dennis Pitta.Baltimores special teams got a 55-yard field goal from Justin Tucker, and punter Sam Koch dropped two of his three kicks inside the 20.What a great game, team effort, all three phases, safety Eric Weddle said. We played our best to date, and weve got to play better next week. Weve been playing playoff football for the last four weeks, so its nothing new to us.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Wholesale Air Max 720 China .

Craig Kimbrel worked the ninth for his 19th save.Archie Bradley (4-8) allowed six runs -- four earned -- in 5 1/3 innings.Demoted to the bullpen twice this season, Buchholz made his first start since early July on the eve of his 32nd birthday because knuckleballer Steven Wright was scratched on Thursday after jamming his pitching shoulder diving back into second during an interleague game.Trailing 3-1 in the fifth, the Red Sox charged ahead with three runs that were keyed by right fielder Soccrates Brito misplaying a flyball for an error.ddddddddddddLeon hooked his homer around the Pesky Pole, Benintendi had an RBI double off the Green Monster after Holt reached on the error and Mookie Betts grounder bounced over third baseman Jake Lamb for an RBI single.Holt homered over Bostons bullpen to make it 6-3 and chased Bradley in the sixth.Arizona had moved ahead by scoring twice in the fourth and once in the fifth.Buchholz held the Diamondbacks hitless until Bourns one-out single in the fourth.
