Ravens vs. Patriots

1st quarter

13:33: The helmet of Patriots S Patrick Chung makes contact with the foot of Ravens P Sam Koch immediately following a punt. Chung did not touch the ball, so a penalty for running into the kicker should have been called. No call was made.

2nd quarter

3:07: A possible sideline reception by Patriots TE Rob Gronkowski is ruled an incomplete pass. It appeared that Gronkowski may have had possession of the ball before going out of bounds. The Patriots do not challenge the call. The drive results in a Patriots punt.

3rd quarter

3:38: Ravens WR Torrey Smith catches a pass that is ruled a touchdown on the field. The play is reviewed to determine whether Smith stepped out of bounds at the 3-yard-line. Video evidence is inconclusive, and the call is (correctly) allowed to stand.

4th quarter

12:19: Patriots QB Tom Brady runs for an apparent touchdown. Brady’s knee appeared to be down with the ball short of the goal line. The call is (correctly) reversed by video review and the ball is placed inside the 1-yard-line. The drive results in a Patriots touchdown.
