Well, it was a heart breaker for Raven fans. It was a game that saw the momentum change time and time again. It came down to a 4th down pass from Joe Flacco to Mark Clayton a pass that should have been caught, that ended the Ravens chance to pull out a victory. Clayton wasn't the only reason the Ravens lost this game, there was a lot of blame to go around.
I'll sum it up this way;
The Good, Ray Rice had a banner day, rushing for 103 yards and dialing up 49 more in receptions. He came up big several times when it was needed, the mark of a professional. Flacco moved the team down the field with accurate throws, if you discount the 2nd quarter when he seemed to get into a funk. Flacco wound up with 264 yards with 2 TD's and one interception. Numbers good enough to win with. Derrick Mason was unbelievable on the offense's opening drive hauling in 5 passes for 47 yards and a touchdown. The defense stepped up in crunch time and held the Pat's to 3 and out with 7 min...

Fair is Fair. It’s been pretty well documented elsewhere, but the Ravens simply didn’t do the right things to win Sunday’s game. Somehow, though, at game’s end, the Ravens were still just yards away from winning (or perhaps just one Mark Clayton catch away). All told, that says a lot of good things about the [...]
Flacco's busy week
Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco was constantly hounded, and this was before he stepped on the football field against the New England Patriots.
One of the emerging stars in the NFL, Flacco was in high demand by local and national media this week. He had his weekly press conference with local reporters and then had a conference call with the New England media. Flacco had one-on-one...

Mark Clayton costs Ravens a loss against New England
In Baltimore we know one thing, there will never be a best-selling book like Keyshan Johnson wrote in New York. There will NOT be a book titled “Mark Clayton: Just Give Me The Damn Ball”. Perhaps its because Mark Clayton costs the Baltimore Ravens a win in there game gainst New England. With under 45 [...]
Three and out: Ravens week
Three and Out
Three interesting angles to watch in Sunday’s Bengals-Ravens game:
Air Flacco: Even though the Ravens have one of the deeper stables of running backs in the league, second-year QB Joe Flacco has continued to progress and has Baltimore as one of the top offenses in the league. Already this season they have the top [...]
Ravens: Both sides now
Nobody likes to lose and nobody likes to think they got jobbed by the officials, but yesterday's loss to the Patriots also was full of signs that this Ravens team has places to go and things to do this year.
Obviously, the biggest downside was the four mistakes in the first half. Whether you think the Suggs roughing penalty was legit or not, the Ravens hurt themselves in enough...
Ravens can't catch Patriots
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 New England 10-yard line and beyond the first-down marker, but Clayton didn't hold on with 28 seconds left. The Patriots did - eking out a 27-21 win over Baltimore on Sunday. "Flat-out drop," Clayton said...
Have to play better to beat New England
It was there for the taking, the pass, the end zone, the game. But it wasn't just the pass that Mark Clayton dropped at the 8-yard line that cost the Ravens a win in New England. It was a series of mistakes they made right from the beginning. Let's look at the big ones:
1) Chris Carr hasn't distinguished himself on kick returns. His fumbled kickoff to start today'...
After key interception, Patriots lead Ravens, 17-7, at halftime
Hello from halftime at Gillette Stadium, where the Patriots lead the Ravens 17-7. They can thank Leigh Bodden for that…
The cornerback appeared to be beaten on a stop-and-go from Mark Clayton, but a miscommunication led Joe Flacco to throw it into Bodden’s arms for the first pick of the year for the Patriots.
He kept his [...]

Patriots' warning: 'We're coming together'
FOXBOROUGH, MASS.—For the rest of the NFL, we present two facts on the New England Patriots.
The good news: They can be had.
The bad news: Despite that, they're 3-1. And with so many moving pieces still being melded together and Bill Belichick being the one carrying the torch, they promise to get better.
In Week 1, Buffalo's Leodis McKelvin coughed up the ball on...
