East Rutherford, NJ (SportsNetwork. Denny McLain Tigers Jersey .com) - It wasnt pretty, but the New England Patriots secured a first-round bye with a 17-16 win over the New York Jets at MetLife Stadium. Tom Brady completed 23-of-35 passes for 182 yards with one touchdown for New England (12-3), which will clinch the AFCs top seed if Denver loses at Cincinnati on Monday night. With the Patriots clinging to a one-point lead in the fourth quarter, Brady threw an interception while under pressure, a theme throughout the game. Cornerback Marcus Williams picked off the pass that deflected off wide receiver Brandon LaFells hands at the New England 31-yard line. The Patriots defense stiffened as a third-down sack by linebacker Donta Hightower forced a 52-yard Nick Folk field goal attempt that was tipped by lineman Vince Wilfork and landed short. New England ran out the remaining 5:16, converting a pair of third downs. Danny Amendola, filling in for Julian Edelman on both offense and special teams, was tackled near the marker at the New York 48-yard line after a screen pass on 3rd-and-7. Some confusion ensued as the ball appeared to be inches shy of a first down based upon a measurement. However, the official signaled a first down, leading to a unsuccessful challenge by the Jets. Brandon Bolden then ran around the right edge for 17 yards on 3rd-and-1 to seal the win. Geno Smith passed for 210 yards on 17-of-27 efficiency with a touchdown and one interception for the Jets (3-12). The New York defense hounded Brady right from the start, registering three first-quarter sacks. New England began the second quarter in New York territory after a 39-yard punt return by Amendola, who had eight catches on 11 targets for 63 yards in place of Edelman. The Patriots leading receiver missed the game with a concussion and a thigh injury. Brady capped the six-play, 36-yard drive with a touchdown pass to Rob Gronkowski. The tight end lined up wide left and hauled in a back-shoulder fade from three yards out. The Jets tied the game at 7-7 when tight end Jeff Cumberland beat safety Patrick Chung on a seam route for a 25-yard touchdown catch. Center Nick Mangold was carted off the field with a left ankle injury during the 12-play, 87-yard drive. Folk kicked a 26-yard field goal to put New York up 10-7 late in a first half that saw New England limited to 52 yards. The Jets reached the red zone on their opening possession of the third quarter, but settled for a 23-yard Folk field goal. New England then changed its tempo on offense, going no-huddle, and had success moving the ball. The drive ultimately stalled at the New York 6-yard line and Stephen Gostkowski kicked a 24-yard field goal. Smith was then picked off by linebacker Jamie Collins on an underthrown pass to tight end Jace Amaro. The Patriots moved in front off the turnover as Jonas Gray ran for a 1-yard touchdown 1:09 into the fourth quarter. Folk made a 37-yard field goal with 7:53 remaining to cap the ensuing New York drive.

But on this night he was overshadowed.The game was the Senators first since the tragic events at the National War Memorial and Parliament Hill this past Wednesday. A touching tribute took place prior to puck drop as players and fans united to commemorate the loss of Cpl. Nathan Cirillo and Warrant Officer Patrice Vincent.The Senators were hoping to give the sellout crowd of 19,266 something to celebrate after the emotional week, but fell just short as Jagr scored at 3:39 of overtime with the man advantage.I was hoping to score 4-on-3, said Jagr. It was a great opportunity because we had a whole two minutes 4-on-3 and with the players weve got we should be able to score. It was a great opportunity for us.The Devils, who were coming off a 3-2 shootout loss to Dallas on Friday night, were relieved not to have to go to a shootout. The Devils havent won a shootout since March 10, 2013.Marek Zidlicky and Damon Severson also scored for the Devils (4-2-2), who snapped a four-game winless streak. Cory Schneider faced 35 shots.That was a big win, said Devils coach Peter DeBoer. We needed that. As a group we wanted to make sure we came up and played a solid game here after (Fridays) game and I thought we did that and got rewarded for it.Alex Chiasson and Bobby Ryan scored for the Senators (4-2-0) as Robin Lehner faced 29 shots. The loss snapped the Senators four-game winning streak.The Senators hadnt played since last Saturday as the game scheduled against the Leafs this past Wednesday was postponed due to the tragedies in Ottawa.Trailing 2-1, Ottawa tied the game on Ryans power-play goal midway through the third, but were unable to complete the comeback.You cant faault the effort, it was there, said Ryan. Anthony Gose Tigers Jersey. I thought we took over the game in the third for a bit and for large portions of it.The Devils, who had a slow start to the game, came out with a better effort in the second and as such held a 2-1 lead.Ottawa scored first as Chiasson took a pass down low and beat Schneider high stick side at the ten-minute mark, but the Devils tied it less than two minutes later on Seversons unassisted goal.Severson took advantage of an Ottawa turnover along the boards at centre ice and came down to beat Lehner high over the shoulder.Losing two games in a shootout isnt fun, obviously you want to win those games, said Severson, a Manitoba native who was playing his first game in Canada. We knew we would come in here and face a tough test, but going into overtime we were real confident we could pull out the two points and we did.New Jersey took the lead on Zidlickys power-play goal from the point.The game remained scoreless after the first period despite a couple of good chances by both teams.Michalek, who continues to look for his first goal, had a great chance at the side of the net, but just couldnt bang it in.The Devils put three solid shots together, but couldnt get anything past Lehner.Lehner said the Senators first period was probably one of its best this season.Our first period we played fantastic defensively, Lehner said. They took over a little bit in the second and they capitalized on our mistakes a little bit and we had a great third again and didnt give up. I thought we gave ourselves a really good chance of winning the game.NOTES: The Senators were without Marc Methot (back, indefinite). Jared Cowen, Erik Condra and Colin Greening were healthy scratches for Ottawa. The Devils were without Jordin Tootoo (foot, indefinite), and Martin Havlat (facial lacerations). Adam Larsson was a healthy scratch. Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys China NFL Cheap Jerseys ' ' '
