After all, this is clearly not a man who believes that biting an opponent

Foxboro, MA (SportsNetwork. Joe Ledley Wales Jersey .com) - Whatever adjustments the New England Patriots made at halftime sure worked. Tom Brady threw a pair of touchdown passes during a 24-point third quarter, as New England clinched its sixth straight AFC East title with a 41-13 victory over the Miami Dolphins on Sunday at Gillette Stadium. LeGarrette Blount also ran for a score during the dominant stanza, as the Patriots turned a tenuous one-point lead into a laugher. Brady finished the game 21-of-35 passing for 287 yards with the two scores and an interception. Rob Gronkowski, held without a reception in the first half, caught three passes for 96 yards with a score for New England (11-3), which gained a split of the season series with Miami. The Dolphins (7-7) saw their already slim playoff hopes dashed further with a second straight loss. Ryan Tannehill completed 29-of-47 passes for 346 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions for Miami, which had beaten New England in the season opener 33-20. The Dolphins outscored the Patriots 23-0 in the second half of that game and had the tables turned to a tune of 27-0 in the final 30 minutes of this one. After an acrobatic touchdown catch by Mike Wallace in the closing seconds of the first half pulled Miami within 14-13, the Patriots blew it open in the third quarter. New England marched 79 yards for a touchdown after the opening kickoff of the second half. Gronkowski hauled in a 34-yard pass to ignite the eight-play series, which Brady keyed with a 17-yard scramble on 3rd-and-11. Blount scored from the three on the next play. After the Dolphins went three-and-out, the Patriots tacked on a 35-yard Stephen Gostkowski field goal to extend the margin to 24-13 with 4:43 left in the third. Patrick Chung then picked off a deflected Tannehill pass on the first play after the kickoff and the Patriots cashed in immediately when Brady found Gronkowski with a perfect seam throw for a 27-yard touchdown. Another Miami three-and-out was followed by a three-play, 47-yard New England touchdown drive. Gronkowski caught a 35-yard pass on the second play and Brady followed with a 6-yard TD pass to Julian Edelman on the next play to increase the cushion to 38-13. Miami managed just seven plays and 15 yards on its first three offensive possessions in the third quarter. The Patriots sandwiched a 36-yard Gostkowski field goal with 6:20 remaining around two Miami possessions that ended in downs deep in New England territory. New England captured its 12th division title in the last 14 years. The only other winners were the New York Jets in 2002 and the Dolphins in 2008. The Patriots also control their destiny for home-field advantage throughout the AFC playoffs, needing only to win their final two games against the Jets and Buffalo Bills. The Dolphins, trying to at least delay the inevitable, opened the game with a deep pass on the first play as Wallace hauled in the slightly underthrown ball for a 50-yard gain to the New England 30. But the Patriots stiffened and forced a field goal attempt that was blocked by Jamie Collins. Kyle Arrington scooped up the ball and raced 62 yards for a touchdown and a quick 7-0 lead. After a Miami punt, New England drove into Dolphins territory with its first offensive series, but Brady had a pass deflected and intercepted by Miamis Jason Trusnik. The turnover led to a 24-yard field goal by Caleb Sturgis to make it 7-3 late in the first quarter. Duron Harmon picked off a poorly thrown ball by a rushed Tannehill at the New England 32 and returned the interception 60 yards to the Miami 8-yard line midway through the second quarter. Shane Vereen scored from the three just three plays later to increase the advantage to 14-3. The Dolphins answered with a 53-yard Sturgis field goal thanks to a defensive pass interference penalty that kept the drive alive. Miami used all three timeouts on defense in the final minute of the half and a 32-yard punt return by Jarvis Landry gave the Dolphins possession at the New England 32 with 11 seconds to play. The Dolphins went to the end zone on the first play and a brilliant catch by Wallace was initially ruled incomplete before being overturned by replay for a touchdown to make it 14-13 at the break.

A World Cup full of wonderful moments and wonderful matches. Then it became the World Cup that Luis Suarez bit someone in. Hyperbole has been destroyed in Brazil. World Cups of recent memory have tried to convince us that they have been entertaining but, in general, they were dull. This time it seemed anyone could say anything about this World Cup and no one would say wait, what?. And then Suarez bit Italian defender Giorgio Chiellini. Wait, what? It came just as some might have been taking a snooze. For the first time in Brazil two games, being played out at the same time, gave us very little to enjoy. England, whose multitude of writers on social media reminded us they were still relevant, finally put their fans out of their misery with a lifeless scoreless draw against sudden group powerhouses, Costa Rica in Belo Horizonte. In Natal, meanwhile, Uruguays plan was going to script. Blessed with two legitimate world class strikers, and very little else, Oscar Tabarez played it cautiously, waited for a moment or two to go his way and thats how they qualified. Anyone willing to criticize such a tactic should remember just how they won Copa America 2011. And how they have scored in Brazil. A penalty by Edinson Cavani, a header made by Cavani and scored by Suarez, a bullet of a shot finished by Suarez and started by the goalkeeper and now a header from a set play. Tuesdays hero, Diego Godin, is the only one anywhere close to the talent of the front pair. Italy, meanwhile, didnt get The Tabarez Memo. Needing a draw to advance they played far too close to the line of uncertainty. A line that could move with a red card, a set play goal of a poor display by their main striker. Lightning struck three times for the Italians. Claudio Marchisios red card was debatable but not enough to chastise the referee. The marking on the goal wasnt good enough and then there was Mario Balotelli. The term world class is thrown around far too often when describing players. It is the elite of the elite, a section reserved for the greatest players in the game today. There is nothing left after that. On Tuesday, Balotelli made a mockery of those quick to place him in that category. On the biggest stage of all, when his country needed him he was an absolute liability, forcing his coach to remove him at half-time. The problem for Balotelli is that he has run out of his immaturity excuse. The great footballerrs are gifted, of course, but also have a level of football intelligence about them, that allows games to come to them rather than trying to do it themselves. Wales Soccer Jerseys. Balotelli has misfired regularly at the top table of club football, the Champions League, and has now done the same at the top table of the international game as well. Italy came to Brazil to win the World Cup and needed their striker at the top of his game, physically and mentally. He played one good half out of five and thats not good enough. Sure, he is not the only one to blame for their early exit. Cesare Prandelli couldnt up the tempo and had to resign afterwards. Andrea Pirlo, one of the greatest footballers of this era, was a shadow of his former self, joining the likes of Iker Casillas, Xavi, Diego Forlan and Steven Gerrard who have all been exposed by age at this level. And then there is FIFA who are also to blame for this, of course. Italy became another European team humbled in the intense heat of Brazil. Asking these teams to play afternoon games, rather than evening games, has made a significant impact on the results. Not that they care about that. Their attention now turns to the Suarez investigation and they need to get it right. He should and will be suspended with a lengthy ban. What happens next is even more important. After his 10-game ban came down last April for biting Branislav Ivanovic, the Uruguyan showed a tremendous amount of remorse. How can he not have? After all, this is clearly not a man who believes that biting an opponent is the right thing to do. However, it is also clearly a man who is unstable on the field and needs help. Throwing the book at him, in terms of a suspension, will satisfy all of those who care about the sport. That then leaves a man, a man who will clearly be broken by this. It is easy to feel no sympathy for him but if you think he was crushed by the Liverpool suspension wait for this one to come down. Uruguay is a very proud footballing country and that is shown in the way they play the game. Suarez will be distraught that he has let his country down and, with it, given a poor reflection on them internationally. As he sits out the rest of this World Cup and, subsequently, likely the 2015 Copa America he will have a lot of time on his hands to get help and become a better man. Many hours were put in to get him to reach the level of world class as a footballer and now he must do the same to achieve that as a man. ' ' '
