the 2012 season also saw long-serving linebacker ray lewis announce his retirement heading into the afc wildcard game against the indianapolis colts. lewis tore his triceps midway through october in his 17th season with the ravens after baltimore selected him with the 26th overall pick in the 1996 nfl draft. the unusual timing of the announcement was criticized by some, such as former new york giant amani toomer who accused lewis of being selfish. nonetheless, many, to include team mate terrell suggs, considered the timing to as a "stroke of genius in regards to lewis' strong motivational presence, and credited lewis with providing the necessary inspiration for the team in what would prove to be a super bowl victory season. they defeated the colts during the wild card round on january 6, 2013 at m&t bank stadium, with ray lewis celebrating his final game at home with his trademark dance both at the start of the game as he was introduced and on the final play of the game when he was brought back onto the field. with the defeat of the colts in the wildcard round, the ravens were primed to face the denver broncos at mile high stadium in denver in the afc divisional round. labeled as huge underdogs coming into the game, especially considering the previous thrashing the broncos dealt them in a home loss on december 16, 2012, the ravens shocked the sports world by defeating the peyton manning-led denver broncos in double overtime, 38–35, in a spectacular divisional round matchup on saturday, january 12, 2013. it looked as though they had lost the game as they got the ball with just over a minute left on their own twenty-three-yard line, but a clutch 70-yard touchdown pass, known colloquially as "the mile high miracle", from joe flacco to jacoby jones sent the game to overtime. in overtime, an interception of peyton manning by corey graham (who had already returned one interception for a touchdown earlier in the game) put the ravens in field position to kick the winning field goal. the win vaulted the ravens to play for the afc conference championship against the new england patriots on sunday, january 20, 2013; the ravens won 28–13 after shutting out tom brady and the new england offense in the second half, completely dismantling any offensive attempt(s) thereafter. the win placed the ravens in super bowl xlvii against the san francisco 49ers on february 3, 2013. the ravens opened the game in thrilling fashion as their opening drive of the game ended with a touchdown pass from eventual super bowl mvp joe flacco to wide receiver anquan boldin. flacco threw two second-quarter touchdown passes as baltimore took a 21–6 lead into halftime. after halftime, the ravens received the kickoff from the 49ers, and jacoby jones returned the kickoff for a record setting 108-yard touchdown. however, soon after the jacoby jones touchdown, a power-outage at the stadium led to a 34-minute stoppage in play due to inefficiencies in lighting, on-field visibility, and electrical equipment. after power was restored, the 49ers regained composure and came storming back, scoring 17 unanswered points. the 49ers had a final chance to take the lead late in the game, but a goal-line stand by the ravens with less than two minutes remaining sealed the contest as the baltimore ravens won super bowl xlvii 34–31. super bowl xlvii has also been dubbed the "harbaugh bowl" since the 49ers were coached by jim harbaugh, the brother of ravens coach john harbaugh.
