"Ravens tight end Todd Heap sustained a back stinger with 2:21 left in the Ravens' 33-14 playoff win at New England.

"It was the play-acting in Todd Heap that brought out the playmaker last night, when the Ravens showed once more their resourcefulness to get the job done no matter the circumstances. Heap temporarily disappeared from the Redskins' radar on a big fourth-and-one play in the third quarter, only to surface along the left sideline for a 24-yard gain that led to a 32-yard field goal by Matt Stover. The play calls for Heap to fall at the line of scrimmage while play-action takes the defense to the right. Then he sneaks out to the flat for the pass. "Part of the plan is that you have to be an actor on that kind of play," Heap said after the Ravens' 24-10 victory in sub-freezing temperatures and 20 ..."
