FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- This time, Seattle won it at the goal line.It certainly wont make up for the Super Bowl loss two seasons back, but the Seahawks goal-line stand lifted them to a 31-24 victory over the New England Patriots on Sunday night.Tom Brady couldnt connect with Rob Gronkowski on a fade pattern on fourth down as New England (7-2) failed four times from inside the 2 in the dying moments.He was playing off me ... pretty far, farther than usual, Gronkowski said about safety Kam Chancellor. You dont usually see that. A fade, I had to go up to him and initiate a move. I just wanted get on top of his toes, that is what you are taught. I just got up on his toes too much.It was reminiscent of how the Seahawks (6-2-1) lost the 2015 Super Bowl when Malcolm Butler intercepted at the goal line to win the NFL title for the Patriots.When it got down to it, when you get a chance to win a game on the 1-yard line , there aint nothing like it in football, said coach Pete Carroll, whose Seahawks worked on defending that exact play at the end of Fridays practice. Its one of the great challenges that a team and a defense gets. And our guys just came through, and hung in there, and just fought for every inch and let us walk away with the win.Doug Baldwin caught three touchdown passes from Russell Wilson, including a 15-yarder for the final margin. Strangely, Seattle went for 2 points and failed on the conversion, leaving the Patriots a chance to tie with a touchdown and an extra point kick.`We wanted to make it a two-possession game, Carroll said.But LeGarrette Blount, who earlier rushed for three touchdowns and has 12 this season, couldnt get into the end zone from close range, nor could Brady on a pair of sneaks.Our execution wasnt great, Brady said, and they put a lot of pressure on you defensively. They have a lot of good players and they make you earn every yard. They play to the end, they have been in a lot of close games.It came down to a yard at the end and we didnt get it.Wilson finished 25 for 37 for 348 yards and the three scores to Baldwin. Brady was 23 of 32 for 316 yards but no TDs after throwing for 12 in his first four games since returning from suspension.New Englands Martellus Bennett had seven receptions for 102 yards to lead all receivers.A GAME OF SWINGSIt was a fierce, sometimes viciously physical game. Gronkowski took one particularly hard hit from Seahawks standout safety Earl Thomas and temporarily had to leave the game in the first half.It also was a game of big plays and big swings, perhaps none more so than Julian Edelmans spectacular over-the-shoulder 33-yard catch on a third-and 25 to end the third quarter. That set up Stephen Gostkowskis 30-yard field goal for a 24-22 lead.Or maybe it was rookie C.J. Prosises 38-yard catch between two defenders to the New England 2, leading to Hauschkas fourth field goal after a strong goal-line stand by the Patriots.Or any of Baldwins three TD receptions.Or, in the end, the power of Seattles interior defense on the short runs by Blount or Brady, and Kam Chancellors tight coverage on Gronkowski on the final play.BLOUNT INSTRUMENTBlount scored twice on 1-yard rushes, bulling his way into the end zone on the second score. He also scooted left for a 13-yard TD in the third period for a 21-19 lead.PICK-FREE NO MOREBradys interception in the second quarter derailed the Patriots chance to tie the 1960 Cleveland Browns for an NFL-record nine games without an interception. DeShawn Shead made the pick.New England had thrown 258 passes before being intercepted.DONT DEFERSomeday perhaps teams will learn not to defer when winning the opening coin toss against New England. The Patriots drove relentlessly for 75 yards and their opening touchdown after the Seahawks did precisely that.New England has scored touchdowns on five of its opening nine drives this season, three of those with Brady at quarterback.Oh yeah, Seattle went three-and-out with the second-half kickoff.UP NEXT:Seattle: The Seahawks host the Eagles.New England: The Patriots also play on the West Coast next Sunday, at San Francisco.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Antonio Valencia Jersey . On Saturday night, the normally free throw-challenged centre did just that. Howard scored 18 of his 25 points in the fourth quarter, including 13 of 19 free throws in a 2 1/2-minute stretch, and the Houston Rockets beat the Denver Nuggets 122-111. Jesse Lingard Jersey .

Axel Tuanzebe Jersey .com) - Richie Incognito has reportedly been admitted to a psychiatric care unit in Arizona. Paul Pogba Jersey . After a first half in which he thought "the lid was on the basket," the Toronto Raptors coach watched his squad mount a second half surge to defeat the Cleveland Cavaliers 98-91. Afghanistan 273 (Stanikzai 51, Nabi 51, Roland-Jones 6-73) and 18 for 3 need another 199 runs to beat England Lions 279 (Westley 84, Foakes 70, Alsop 40, Rashid Khan 4-48) and 210 (Foakes 89*, Gubbins 53, Rashid 8-74) ScorecardBen Foakes passed another searching examination from Afghanistans exciting legspin talent, Rashid Khan, to set up a fascinating fourth-day finish in Abu Dhabi.Foakes, who had made 70 in the first innings, followed up with a patient and skilful unbeaten 89 second time around, compiled from 154 balls in 222 minutes.The Surrey wicketkeeper shared partnerships of 66 with Middlesex opener Nick Gubbins, who was fifth out after grafting to 53 from 152 balls, and 51 with the Lions captain Toby Roland-Jones.But there was no denying Rashid top billing in front of a small but highly enthusiastic crowd of Afghanistan supporters at the Zayed Cricket Stadium.He had made quite an impression with 4 for 48 in the first innings but proved even more of a handful in the second, ending with 8 for 74 from 35 overs - giving him astonishing match figures of 12 for 122 on his first-class debut.Lalchand Rajput, Afghanistans experienced Indian coach, revealed afterwards that Rashid had only played T20 and 50-over cricket since playing in the ICC Under-19 World Cup in Bangladesh earlier this year.I think he has bowled superbly in this game, said Rajput. He came from the under-19s and he was playing a lot of one-day cricket and T20 - this is the first four-day game he has played, and he has really done well. That shows that hes ready for all formats. We picked him because sometimes the wrist spinners you just get naturally - he is one of those.The Lions were all out for 210 in their second innings, leaving Afghanistan needing 217 to win - and Tom Curran struck a huge double blow in his first over, pinning Javed Ahmadi lbw then having RRahmat Shah snapped up by Ollie Rayner at second slip in the space of three balls.ddddddddddddCurrans younger brother Sam chipped in with the wicket of Afsar Zazai, lbw to his second ball, and the Afghans closed on 18 for 3 - needing another 199 to win.The day had started with Roland-Jones taking less than an over to collect the last wicket of Afghanistans first innings, completing figures of 6 for 73.The Lions lost Tom Alsop in the fifth over of their second innings, edging to second slip where Rahmat claimed a low catch.But Tom Westley, who had top-scored with 84 in the Lions first innings, started well again and shared a stand of 44 with Gubbins until he was lbw to Rashids googly.Joe Clarke was bowled by Rashid for the second time in the match four overs later, and the legspinner then switched ends to have Liam Livingstone lbw sweeping and leave the Lions tottering on 68 for 4.Foakes joined Gubbins to steady the ship and the pair batted deep into the afternoon session until another flurry of wickets before tea.They all went to Rashid - Gubbins adjudged caught behind off the bottom edge, Sam Curran edging the next ball, and Tom lbw to another googly, although in his case on the front foot.At 152 for 7, the Lions were only 158 ahead, and seemingly short of a defendable total. So the 51 runs added by Roland-Jones and Foakes were precious, although the last three wickets tumbled quickly as Roland-Jones was yorked by the young Afghan seamer Karim Janat, Rayner was given caught behind off Rashid, and finally Jack Leach popped a catch to short leg.Foakes ran out of partners after hitting nine fours and a six, but the late treble from the Curran brothers left the game finely balanced going into the last day.
