Patriots, Raiders secure playoff berths
Print Edition
THE New England Patriots are back in the NFL playoffs after a 16-3 victory at Denver on Sunday that dimmed the reigning Super Bowl champion Broncos’ post-season hopes.
“It was no masterpiece, but it was what it needed to be,” Patriots coach Bill Belichick said of the New England victory, in which Tom Brady engineered four scoring drives and the Pats defense kept the Broncos out of the end zone and forced two turnovers that led to scores.
LeGarrette Blount ran one yard for a touchdown and Stephen Gostkowski booted three field goals for the Patriots in a game that was largely a defensive struggle.
While the Patriots claimed their eighth straight division title, and held on to the American Football Conference’s top seed with two regular-season games remaining, the Oakland Raiders were celebrating their first post-season berth since 2002. Derek Carr completed 19 of 30 passes for 213 yards with a touchdown for the Raiders who defeated the Chargers 19-16. Oakland took the lead on Sebastian Janikowski’s fourth field goal of the game from 44 yards out with 2:40 remaining.
