FOXBOROUGH, Mass. Mark Clayton got open and waited for the fourth down
pass that could keep the Ravens chances alive.

Joe Flacco reached his target inside the Patriots 10 yard line and beyond
the first down marker, but Clayton didnt hold on with 28 seconds left.
New England did eking out a 27 21 win over Baltimore on Sunday.

"Flat out drop," Clayton said. "It was a perfect ball. Joe put it on the
money. To not come up with it is tough. It cost us the game."

The Ravens lost left tackle Jared Gaither after a collision that put him
on his back for about 10 minutes before he was taken off the field on a
stretcher midway through the second quarter. X rays at Massachusetts General
Hospital, where he had tests on his neck and shoulder, were negative.

Flacco fell onto Gaithers back as the quarterback was shoved by defensive
end Ty Warren.

"We knew it wasnt serious," Baltimore coach John Harbaugh said. "Well
see how long hell be out."

The Ravens failed on another fourth down play on their next to last series
as they tried to overcome the first scoring pass of the season from Tom
Brady to Randy Moss and a 1 yard touchdown sneak by the quarterback.

On that fourth and 1 at the Ravens 45 yard line, Warren stopped Willis
McGahee for no gain with 5:09 remaining.

"That was quite a finish," Patriots coach Bill Belichick said. "Stop them
on fourth down twice in the fourth quarter, thats when youve got to be
there. Luckily, we were."

But Ravens players thought McGahee had made the first down.

"The spots were terrible," Baltimore safety Ed Reed said.

Moss touchdown made it 24 14 late in the third quarter, but Flaccos
13 yard scoring pass to McGahee cut that to 24 21. Stephen Gostkowskis
33 yard field goal gave the Patriots (3 1) a six point lead midway through
the fourth quarter.

After McGahee came up short, the Patriots punted and the Ravens (3 1) got
the ball back with 5:09 left then moved to a fourth and 4 at the 14.

"We thought we had them down, but they started coming back," Patriots
running back Sammy Morris said. "It was just one of those tough slugfests."

The game was decided when Clayton dropped the ball and the Patriots ran
out the clock as they kept their unbeaten record against the Ravens with
their fifth win.

"We were confident," Baltimore wide receiver Derrick Mason said. "The
defense did a great job of holding them and giving us the opportunity to
put some points on the board."

Trailing 17 7 at halftime, the Ravens made it 17 14 when Terrell Suggs
hit Brady for a sack and knocked the ball out of his right hand. Dwan
Edwards recovered in the end zone for a touchdown with 6:19 left in the
third quarter.

"We kind of had control of the game and then Suggs tued it around,"
Belichick said.

But Brady led the Patriots on their next possession, a 79 yard drive
ending with his 14 yard touchdown pass to Moss.

Moss caught 23 scoring passes in 2007, his first season with Brady, who
was sidelined for all of last season except for the first half of the
first quarter of the opener.

The Ravens responded with an 80 yard drive, 50 on a run by Ray Rice, who
finished with 103 yards on 11 carries, and the final 13 on the pass to
McGahee.

"We gave up too many big plays and couldnt get off the field on third
down," Patriots safety Brandon Meriweather said. "We did a lot of things
that good defenses dont do."

The Patriots struck quickly after Brandon McGowan recovered Chris Carrs
fumble as he retued the opening kickoff. That led to a 32 yard field
goal by Gostkowski.

Flacco then led the Ravens on a 15 play, 81 yard drive capped by
a 20 yard scoring pass to Mason, who had six catches for 77 yards on
the series.

The Patriots went ahead 10 7 on the next series with a 1 yard sneak by
Brady.

"Head to head with Ray Lewis, I certainly wasnt thinking of that one
going to bed last night," he said.

The Patriots made it 17 7 with 3:57 left in the half on Morris
12 yard run.

Lewis complained about rushing the passer penalties that helped the
drives on which Brady and Morris scored.

"Without totally going off the wall here, it is embarrassing to the
game," Lewis said. "Brady is good enough to make his own plays, let
him make the play."

The Ravens then drove from their 20 to the Patriots 17 with a chance
to cut the deficit to 17 14 at halftime. But Leigh Bodden intercepted
Flaccos pass at the 9.
