BALTIMORE (Ticker) -- Tom Brady added to his legacy, earned aspot in the history books and kept alive his team's bid to dothe same. Brady threw an 8-yard touchdown pass to Jabar Gaffney with 44seconds to play as the New England Patriots kept theirundefeated season alive with a pulsating 27-24 victory over theBaltimore Ravens on Monday. "I saw Jab (Gaffney) out of the corner of my eye and just laidit up there," Brady said. "I told him it was the best catch ofhis career. It was a (heck) of a time to do it." The dramatic finish allowed the Patriots to become only thesixth team in history to start a season with a 12-0 record. Thelast team to do it was the Indianapolis Colts in 2005. Taking over at their own 27-yard line with 3:30 to play, thePatriots drove 73 yards for the winning touchdown, twiceconverting a pair of bizarre fourth-down plays. It was the 21st game-winning drive led by Brady since 2001 - aleague high - and came on a night when the two-time Super BowlMost Valuable Player became just the fourth quarterback inleague history to throw 40 touchdowns in a season. One week after rallying in the fourth quarter to overcome thePhiladelphia Eagles, 31-28, New England was pushed to the limitby the inspired Ravens, who outplayed the Patriots for most ofthe night in a game played in gusting, swirling winds. Brady finished a mere 18-of-38 for 257 yards, two touchdowns andan interception, but he showed his mettle when it counted -helped greatly by a couple of gaffes by the Ravens, who enduredtheir sixth consecutive loss. The Ravens seemingly had the game won when they stuffed Brady ona 4th-and-goal with 1:48 to play, only to have the play negatedwhen Baltimore defensive coordinator Rex Ryan called a timeoutjust before the snap. "We didn't feel like we were in the right configuration," Ravenscoach Brian Billick said in explaining the timeout. "We feltwe needed a better (defensive) call." After Brady scrambled 17 yards on 4th-and-6 to keep the Patriotsmoving, the Ravens again looked to have ended it when Brady'sfourth-down pass in the end zone fell incomplete. This time NewEngland was saved by a defensive holding call in the end zoneon cornerback Jamaine Winborne. That gave the Patriots a 1st-and-goal at the 8-yard line with 50ticks remaining and this time they converted, with Bradyfinding Gaffney in the left corner of the end zone. "It came down to third downs, fourth downs," Brady said. "Weexecuted when we needed to. Those calls definitely helped us." Still, Baltimore (4-8) almost pulled out a stunning win whenMark Clayton pulled in a Hail Mary pass from Kyle Boller at the2-yard line but was dragged down as time ran out. Willis McGahee rushed for 138 yards and a touchdown on 30carries for the Ravens, who entered the game as 20-pointunderdogs, the biggest margin for a home team in league history. "We ran the ball very, very well against an outstanding footballteam," Billick said. Boller was 15-of-23 for 210 yards, two TDs and one costlyinterception at the goal line with 10 1/2 minutes to play andthe Ravens holding a 24-17 lead. With the scored tied at 10-10 at halftime, the Ravens took thesecond-half kickoff and marched 73 yards in eight plays behindthe running of McGahee, who rambled in from 17 yards for a 17-10lead with 10:05 left in the third. McGahee rushed for 48 yards on six carries on the drive andfinished it by dragging a pair of would-be tacklers into the endzone. Brady brought the Patriots back on the ensuing possession,completing all four passing attempts for 51 yards. He hit RandyMoss from 3 yards out to deadlock it at 17-17. It was the 40th TD pass of the season for Brady, who became justthe fourth quarterback in NFL history to reach that milestone.Peyton Manning (2004) of the Indianapolis Colts and former MiamiDolphins great Dan Marino (1984, 1986) are the others. The Ravens stormed right back behind the running of McGahee andMusa Smith and forged ahead, 24-17, on Daniel Wilcox's 1-yardreception just 35 seconds into the fourth quarter. Baltimore was on the move again on its next drive, but Bollerwas picked off at the 1-yard line by free safety James Sanders,who returned it 42 yards. That led to a 38-yard field goal by Stephen Gostkowski that drewNew England within 24-20 with 8:41 left to play.

"That's the way it is every week in the NFL," New England coachBill Belichick said. "The teams we play, we expect to get theirbest and we expect to be our best. That's what we prepare for. "This is the third time in four weeks that we've come frombehind in the fourth quarter. It wasn't perfect. I was proudof the way they played when it was on the line." Brady finished a mere 18-of-38 for 257 yards, two touchdowns andan interception, but he showed his mettle when it counted -helped greatly by a couple of gaffes by the Ravens, who enduredtheir sixth consecutive loss.

Still, Baltimore (4-8) almost pulled out a stunning win whenMark Clayton pulled in a Hail Mary pass from Kyle Boller at the2-yard line but was dragged down as time ran out. "We lost. That's the bottom line," Ravens cornerback ChrisMcAlister said. "There's no consolation in second place forus." Willis McGahee rushed for 138 yards and a touchdown on 30carries for the Ravens, who entered the game as 20-pointunderdogs, the biggest margin for a home team in league history. It was the highest rushing total against the Patriots sinceMcGahee ran for 136 yards as a member of the Buffalo Bills onOctober 30, 2005. "We ran the ball very, very well against an outstanding footballteam," Billick said.

"No doubt about it, we moved the ball running and passing,"McGahee said. "(But) the loss takes away everything. We playedour hearts out tonight, we had some bogus calls, but you know,it is what it is. It's tough." Brady brought the Patriots back on the ensuing possession,completing all four passing attempts for 51 yards. He hit RandyMoss from 3 yards out to deadlock it at 17-17.
