But none of that seemed to matter sunday after they had muscled their Way past those troublesome cowboys for the first time in their last four meetings. This defense was revamped basically to beat dal Las said Merton Hanks the san Francisco safety who made two touchdown saving interceptions in the 21-14win.

He picked off on pass Early convincing Cowb y quarterback Troy Aik Man to spend the rest of the afternoon throwing else Jim Luke where. More important by shoring up the Corner Sanders freed up Hanks to return to his natural spot at free safety and concentrate on the Middle of the Field. Aikman still managed to finish a respectable 23-of-42for 339 Yards but the three interceptions were not the Only messages the 49ers defense whispered in the ear Hole of his helmet. Jackson killed another drive late in the third Quarter with a sack and his Lin mate Dana Stubblefield spent much of the afternoon in Altai an s face.

Bledsoe credits no huddle for hot hand against vikes. Foj ,.-." -. By Howard Ulman Foxboro mass. A it had been a rough month for Drew Bledsoe and things weren t getting any better. He had thrown 11 interceptions an three touchdowns in his previous four games. The new England patriots los them All to drop into the acc East cellar i. On sunday with one minute left in the first half he had completed just 4 of 11 passes for 24 Yards. He was trailing the enc Central leading Minnesota Vikings with their intimidating pass Rush 20-0.that s not what the patriots expect of the top pick in last year s  they went into their no huddle offence. And Bledsoe went into the re Cord books. Just 22 years old with less than two seasons in the nil he handled the adversity admirably. He finished with 45completions in 70 attempts both nil re  with the final minute of the first half he completed 41-of-59 passe for 402 Yards and three touchdowns and brought the patriots Back to a 26-20 Over time win. He accomplished an awful lot Patri ots coach Bill Parcells said monday. There s a lot of pressure to execute Al most every play. I think he really stood up and did a Good  switch to the no huddle attack which kept the Vikings from changing defensive personnel or resting tired players gave Bledsoe the Chance he relished. He called most of the plays after halftime and welcomed the pressure. I really enjoy the two minute of sense Bledsoe said monday. You re throwing the Ball almost every Down so you get into a Good rhythm. You re Call ing your own plays so that it become your responsibility to make them work. There s More accountability there and it s a lot of fun when you get into that rhythm and Petit  but Parcells said the no huddle approach in t Likely to become a major part of the offence. I know  likes it because Bledsoe it s exciting he said. But in the end i Don t think it s your Best Way to  it was the Only Way the patriots whose running game has struggled All season could have won sunday after falling sofar behind. But the poised Bledsoe who has league leading averages of 26 completions 47 attempts and 303 Yards pregame took his record setting performance in  figured we threw it a lot of times but i did t have a clue that we threw i that Many he said. It s fun to have those kind of things happen As Long As you  in the fourth Quarter the patriots 4-6 never ran the Ball As Bledsoe completed 18-of-27 passes for 171 Yards. He threw on 34 straight offensive play starting with the next to last play of the third Quarter. The patriots already were in Field Goa position at the Minnesota 14-Yard line on the first series of overtime. But they decided to try for a touch Down before giving Matt Bahr a shot at the winning Field Goat the coaches decision to do that showed Confidence in their Young quarterback despite his seven interceptions in the previous two games. " might As Well give yourself a shot along As the coaches feet like they can Trust me that i m not going to do some thing stupid and throw the Ball where anybody else can touch it but our Guy Bledsoe said. So he threw the Ball High to the Dee left Corner of the end zone where full Back Kevin Turner had gotten behind linebacker Carlos Jenkins. Turner made the catch 4 10 into Over time Bledsoe 70th pass without an interception and the quarterback Sim ply uns napped his Chinstrap and slowly raised his arms above his head. It s something that i be started to pay attention to that i wish at certain moments in my sporting career that i Wouldhave taken a Little bit More time to savor the moment he said.
