FOXBOROUGH, Mass. Dan Bailey Jersey . - Chris Jones wasnt going to make the same mistake he did last year when Nick Folk tried another potential winning field goal Thursday night.This time, the New England defensive tackle didnt commit a penalty to give the Jets kicker another chance.Jones blocked Folks 58-yard attempt on the final play and the Patriots had just enough offence with Tom Bradys three touchdown passes to edge surprisingly competitive New York 27-25.Its good to feel that ball hitting my hand and its good to get the win, Jones said. I just played it legally and did all that I could.Last season, Folk was wide left on a 56-yard attempt in overtime, but Jones was penalized under a new rule against players pushing a teammate into the opponents formation. Folk then connected from 42 yards, giving the Jets a 30-27 victory.After what happened last year, I thought it was fitting that he made that play, Patriots coach Bill Belichick said.Folks longest field goal in his career travelled 56 yards, but he had made all 13 of his attempts this year so the 58-yarder was makeable.It felt pretty good off my foot, he said. I did kick it low, in order to give it enough to get it there.But when Jones batted it down, the Patriots (5-2) raced onto the field in celebration of a win that was much tougher than expected.The Jets (1-6) suffered their sixth straight loss, the longest streak in Rex Ryans six seasons as coach, after taking a 19-17 lead with just under 9 minutes left in the third quarter on Chris Ivorys 1-yard run.Stephen Gostkowski put the Patriots ahead to stay with his second field goal, a 36-yarder with 4:10 to go in the third. Bradys 19-yard touchdown pass to Danny Amendola gave them an eight-point lead with 4:10 remaining.The Jets made it 27-25 on Geno Smiths 10-yard scoring pass to Jeff Cumberland with 2:31 left, but Smiths pass for the 2-point conversion was incomplete.Ivory finished with 107 yards rushing.This is extremely frustrating, Smith said. I felt it was going to happen for us.Smith, last in the NFL in passer rating, had a solid game with 20 completions in 34 attempts for 226 yards and no interceptions.Brady was 20 for 37 for 261 yards and no interceptions.Each team played without two key starters who went on season-ending injured reserve after being hurt Sunday — cornerback Dee Milliner and left guard Brian Winters for the Jets and linebacker Jerod Mayo and running back Stevan Ridley for the Patriots.As a whole offence we needed to step up, running back Shane Vereen said. You cant replace Stevan.The Patriots led 17-12 at halftime despite having the ball for just 7:57, while the Jets held it for 22:03.When the defence is out there as much as they were tonight its going to be tough for them, Brady said. Weve got to help them out.The Jets got inside the New England 30 on all four of their first-half possessions. But they managed just four field goals by Folk, covering 22, 47, 46 and 27 yards.The Patriots went three-and-out on two of their possessions in the half but made the most of the other two as Brady threw touchdown passes to Vereen — a 49-yarder on their fourth offensive play and a 3-yarder that made it 14-9 with 4:22 left in the half.After Folks fourth field goal, the Patriots got the ball with 55 seconds remaining in the half. On third-and-10 at the New York 44, Antonio Allen was called for defensive pass interference on Amendola, putting the ball at the 12.An unnecessary roughness penalty against guard Jordan Devey pushed the ball back to the 27. After a 6-yard run by Vereen, Gostkowski kicked a 39-yard field goal on the last play of the half.The Jets were competitive against a top team for the second straight game. They lost to the Denver Broncos 31-17 on Sunday.The result is not showing on the scoreboard, but I think we are getting there, Ivory said.NOTES: The Jets outgained the Patriots on the ground 218 yards to 63. ... Former Patriots cornerback Ty Law was honoured at halftime for his induction into the teams Hall of Fame. ... Amendola had four catches in his first six games but came up with a big one then watched his team hold the lead. I almost had a heart attack at the end, he said, but the defence came up huge. ... Brady got his 41st straight regular-season home victory against an AFC opponent.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL Michael Irvin Jersey . "Right now were kind of looking at him at the end of the rotation right now," said pitching coach Pete Walker. "Not indicative of how hes doing or how hes feeling. Its just, it seems like the spot we want him right now. Larry Allen Jersey . After a 99-97 loss to the Toronto Raptors on Wednesday night, his Celtics coaches and teammates have only positive things to say about the Toronto-born rookie. http://www.shoptheofficialcowboys.com/Elite-Dak-Prescott-Cowboys-Jersey/ . - Pete Rose didnt want it to be about him, not on a day when four new members were elected to baseballs most exclusive club.Cleveland, OH (SportsNetwork.com) - LeBron James scored 34 points with a full line and the rest of the Cavaliers core shined in Clevelands 108-98 win over the Oklahoma City Thunder. James netted at least 25 points for the seventh straight game and contributed seven rebounds, five assists and a pair of blocks as Cleveland extended its season-long win streak to six games. Were a confident bunch, but were a humble bunch, said James. We have to continue to work. Kevin Love got back on track in a big way on Sunday, tallying 19 points and 13 rebounds while hitting 5-of-7 from behind the arc, and Kyrie Irving scored 21 points. Love had been 4-for-21 from 3-point range over his last six games. Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook both neared triple-doubles in the loss, but Westbrooks 7-for-26 shooting and just six combined points from starters Kendrick Perkins and Andre Roberson were too much for Oklahoma City to overcome. We missed some shots, said Durant. We had some good looks but we missed them. I think we played a good game. We pretty much did whatever we wanted, but they came out on top. They hit some big shots. Durant posted 32 points, nine assists and six rebounds and Westbrook finished with 22 points, 11 assists and nine boards. Dion Waiters, who spent the first two-plus seasons in Cleveland before a trade on Jan. 7 sent him to the Thunder, added 14 points oon 5-of-15 off the bench in his return to Quicken Loans Arena. Stephen Paea Jersey. Cleveland shot 6-for-21 in the first quarter and trailed 26-20 after one, but flipped the script with a dominant second period. James scored seven points during a 10-2 push to open the period that put the Cavs in front. It was tied with 4:59 left in the half after Westbrook sank a pair of free throws, but consecutive treys by J.R. Smith and Irving and an Irving runner had Cleveland on top 46-38. James layup eight seconds before halftime gave him 22 first-half points and sent the Cavaliers into the break leading 57-49. James only took one shot and didnt score in the third, but Love helped carry the load by connecting on all three of his tries from distance. Oklahoma City briefly took the lead twice late in the frame on layups from Westbrook and Waiters, but a 16-4 run that spanned the third and fourth quarters helped Cleveland regain control. James capped the flurry with a deep 3-pointer right in front of Waiters that gave the Cavs a 91-80 lead with under 10 minutes left. The margin never dipped under eight down the stretch. Game Notes The Thunder had been 10-1 in their previous 11 games against the Eastern Conference ... Smith had 14 points and Tristan Thompson grabbed a season-high 16 rebounds off the bench for Cleveland.
