Greg Olsen figures it was a good run that appears over because of a major injury.
X-rays on Sunday revealed the Panthers' three-time Pro Bowl tight end suffered a broken right foot in Carolina's 9-3 win over the Buffalo Bills on Sunday and is expected to miss significant playing time.
Olsen has never missed a game because of injury during his previous 10 NFL seasons.
''I haven't missed a game in a long time, so on one hand it stinks, but on one hand I am very thankful that I have been as lucky as I have been,'' said Olsen, who was in a walking boot after the game.
''A lot of guys have dealt with a lot more stuff than I have throughout their careers. ... Unfortunately it looks like (that streak) is going to have to come to an end.''
He felt ''something pop'' in his foot in the first half while running a route. He tried to go back in but knew something was wrong.
''I didn't touch anybody,'' Olsen said. ''I didn't get hit. It's just the way my foot went down.''
Panthers coach Ron Rivera said he won't know how long the 32-year-old tight end will be out until he meets with team physicians on Monday.
Olsen said he's disappointed, but trying to stay positive.
''I have always prided myself on being out there and playing,'' Olsen said. ''Sometimes things are out of your control.''
The Ravens' second consecutive dominating win came at a substantial cost.
