The group didn’t have the same luck on the second series as the Ravens took a 7-0 lead. That drive ended with a Rhamondre Stevenson 1-yard touchdown run at 12:39 of the fourth quarter. The Patriots quarterback appeared to have suffered a left leg injury on the play. On the second drive, he caught a 40-yard pass.

This came on a third-and-goal from the 10-yard line. The Ravens started with solid field position on their next series thanks to a 43-yard punt return by Devin Duvernay.
