NFL Result: New England beats New York
New England Patriots made history Saturday night with a thrilling 38-35 win over the New York Giants.
The New England Patriots became the first NFL team since the 1972 Dolphins to win every game on the schedule, and that one was only 14-0. Led by New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady engineered a comeback from a 12-point deficit and smashed the New England Patriots’ league mark for consecutive victories.
“It’s special,” said New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, whose record-breaking 50th TD pass of the season, a 65-yard bomb to New England Patriots Randy Moss, completed a rally from a 12-point deficit midway through the third quarter. “But we’ve won three Super Bowls. And as good as this feels, I think we all know that it’s not the real goal that we’ve set for ourselves. “We kind of know what’s ahead of us out there.”
In gaining their 19th straight win over two seasons, the New England Patriots went on top on New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady’s 50th touchdown pass of the year and Moss’ 23rd TD reception. It came with 11:06 remaining.
New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady beat Peyton Manning’s mark of 49 touchdown passes and New England Patriots Randy Moss broke Jerry Rice’s record of 22 TD receptions. And the New England Patriots finished with an incredible 589 points for the season, another single-season record.
The New York Giants (10-6) already guaranteed a playoff game against Tampa Bay next weekend and with little to play for except spoiling New England’s perfect ride, led 28-16 in the third quarter. It was the New England Patriots’ largest deficit all year as the Giants showed no fear and plenty of versatility, scoring the most points New England allowed in a game during this remarkable run.
The New York Giants opened the game as if they were, well, the Patriots, driving 74 yards, sparked by a 52-yard completion on which New York Giants wide receiver Plaxico Burress outleapt New England Patriots cornerback Ellis Hobbs for Manning’s jump-ball throw. New York Giants running back Brandon Jacobs broke New England Patriots’ linebacker Tedy Bruschi’s tackle to score on a 7-yard reception for a 7-0 lead.
New England Patriots the highest-scoring team in NFL history, struck back. After New England Patriots’ kicker Stephen Gostkowski’s 37-yard field goal, New England Patriots went on top — and surpassed Minnesota’s league mark of 556 points — on the record-tying 4-yard TD pass from Tom Brady to Randy Moss, who soared above rookie New York Giants cornerback Aaron Ross for the score.
The 10-7 lead lasted all of 11 seconds. The usually staid New England Patriots gathered around Randy Moss as he did a dance in the end zone, prompting a 15-yard excessive celebration penalty. “We’re down 10 or 11 (actually 12) in the third quarter, the crowd was into it, and we found a way to win,” Tom Brady said. “That’s the way it’s going to be down the stretch … just hope we can continue to play this kind of football.”
