Around the horn

He's not quite Nostradamus, but Baltimore runner Jamal Lewis apparently does know when he's about to bust loose a big game. Before the Ravens' week-two game against Cleveland, the running back reportedly told a teammate and a friend on the Browns that he was going to break the NFL single-game rushing record when the two teams met. Mr. Lewis did just that, rushing for 295 yards on just 30 carries. It may never be as celebrated as Babe Ruth's 1932 called shot against Chicago in the World Series, but it has given fans in Baltimore something to talk about.

Not even Nostradamus or Jamal Lewis could have predicted the 2-0 start by the embattled Carolina Panthers—or the manner in which the Panthers earned their second victory. The visiting Carolina team led 9-3 late when defending Super Bowl champion Tampa Bay scored a touchdown with no time left to tie the game at 9. The Bucs needed only to chip in the extra point to win, but the Panthers line, which had already blocked two field goals, stuffed the extra point too. That gave the Panthers the opportunity to win the game in overtime, which they did.
