The
Bills defense came up with two huge sacks of Drew Bledsoe

Bills
Hang On For Win
After
spotting Buffalo an 11-0 lead early, The pesky Pats fought back
to only trail by 3, 17 -14 through the fourth quarter. But costly
turnovers caused Alex Smolka to miss out on a chance to upset the
Bills in the wild card round of the PFL playoffs. The Pats squandered
two opportunities to take the lead late in the game, first on an
interception and second, after forcing the Bills to punt late. Both
times the Pats couldn't put it in the endzone. On the Pats final
drive just inside Buffalo territory, Drew Bledsoe was sacked twice
taking New England out of field goal range. Forcing Alex Smolka
to go deep on 2nd and 3rd and long, Brown was able to tee off and
sell out on defense.
