Baltimore ? The Baltimore Ravens gave Jamal Lewis the football, as promised, and he delivered on a pledge in setting a single-game NFL record with 295 yards rushing.

Lewis’ incredible performance, which included two touchdowns, led Baltimore past the Cleveland Browns, 33-13, Sunday.

He would have had a third score and surpassed 300 yards if not for a holding penalty on Marcus Robinson during a 60-yard run in the first half.

“On a day like today, I can’t regret anything,” said Lewis, who averaged a whopping 9.8 yards on his 30 carries. “It was beautiful.”

Lewis ran for an 82-yard touchdown on the second play from scrimmage, added a 63-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter and broke the record with a three-yard run with 6:55 left.

He shattered the single-game mark held by Corey Dillon of Cincinnati, who ran for 278 yards Oct. 22, 2000, against Denver.

During a phone call with Cleveland linebacker Andra Davis earlier in the week, Lewis said he would break the record if given 30 carries — twice as many as one week earlier in a 34-15 loss to Pittsburgh.

“Andra told me he wanted me to get the ball 30 times. I told him if I get the ball 30 times, it’s going to be a career day,” Lewis said. “I’m not going to say I predicted it. It was lucky.”

Lewis, who missed the entire 2001 season with a torn knee ligament, had 100 yards by his second carry Sunday and was at 180 yards by halftime.

“I was going in at halftime when (Ravens tackle) Jonathan Ogden said, ‘Let’s go get it. We can get 300 yards,”‘ Lewis said.

Said Ogden: “I figured if he broke the record, we’d get the win.”

The Ravens (1-1) spoke all week about the importance of using Lewis more, especially since the tailback shredded Cleveland for 187 yards in a game last October.

The Browns knew he was coming, but were powerless against him.

“This is the most disgusting feeling I ever had in my life. … He said what he said, and then he did it. It’s in the history books,” Browns safety Earl Little said.

After the Browns (0-2) cut a 13-point deficit to 16-13, Lewis’ 63-yard TD run gave Baltimore a 10-point cushion with 14:49 remaining.

“They didn’t get quiet until the end of the fourth quarter,” Lewis said of the Browns. “Andra told me, ‘I can’t say anything else.’ He was congratulating me as we were playing. He showed me much respect.”

Lewis also helped the Ravens overcome another poor showing by rookie quarterback Kyle Boller, who hurt his knee and was replaced by Chris Redman in the third quarter. Boller went 7-for-17 for 78 yards and an interception.

Panthers 12,

Buccaneers 9, OT

Tampa, Fla. — John Kasay’s fourth field goal, a 47-yarder with 3:28 remaining in overtime, capped a wild final few minutes. The Buccaneers (1-1) tied the game with no time left in regulation on Keenan McCardell’s six-yard reception. But Kris Jenkins got a hand on what would have been a game-winning extra point by Martin Gramatica. Steve Smith’s 52-yard punt return to the Tampa Bay 40 set up Kasay’s game-winner.

Bengals 20

Oakland, Calif. — Sebastian Janikowski’s third field, a 39-yarder with left seconds left, won it. The Raiders (1-1) got a break on their final drive when Jeff Burris was flagged for pass interference against Jerry Rice, giving Oakland the ball on the Cincinnati 22 with 23 seconds left.

Vikings 24, Bears 13

Minneapolis — Kordell Stewart and Chicago showed some spunk, but Minnesota was just better. The Bears might have to get used to that this year. Moe Williams rushed 21 times for 108 yards and a touchdown, and Daunte Culpepper threw two TD passes to tight end Jim Kleinsasser to lead the Vikings.
