The Browns hold the Ravens to Matt Stover's 41-yard field goal for a 3-0 lead. ... The Ravens take a 10-0 lead when Joe Flacco hits Mark Clayton for a 47-yard touchdown one play after the Ravens recover a fumble by Syndric Steptoe. Clayton burns Brandon McDonald on a post pattern. ... Joshua Cribbs returns the kickoff 92 yards for a touchdown to cut it to 10-7. It's Cribbs' fifth career kickoff return TD. ...

Brown handed it off for short gains on the first two, then faked a handoff and kept the other way on the third. Willie McGinest sniffed out the fake and dropped Brown for a one--yard gain. ... Browns WR Braylon Edwards shoved Ravens LB Ray Lewis after an incomplete pass on the first offensive snap. Edwards reacted after Lewis stayed on the receiver's legs after the ball was past them.
