OCT. 4, 2009 FOXBOROUGH

PATRIOTS 27--21

The Drop, Part I: a miscue by Mark Clayton on what he calls a "perfect ball" on fourth-and-four at the Pats' 14 with 32 seconds left ruins Flacco's first head-to-head game with his budding AFC rival.

RAVENS 33--14

OCT. 17, 2010 FOXBOROUGH

PATRIOTS 23--20

Baltimore's 10-point fourth-quarter lead evaporates on a five-yard Brady-to-just-signed-Deion Branch TD and Stephen Gostkowski's 24-yard FG with 1:54 left. His 35-yard FG in OT wins it.
