Ravens stand behind Banks

Head coach Brian Billick has supported quarterback Tony Banks all along. So have his teammates. But after a 10-3 loss to Washington on Sunday in which Baltimore went a third straight game without scoring a touchdown, it's justifiable that the support system would start to weaken. Maybe not. "Somebody make a play. Somebody hold up on the line," wide receiver Qadry Ismail said in The Washington Post. "Somebody make a great catch. Somebody just make a great run. Somebody just do something. It's all of us, not just one position."
