FOXBORO -- Punting from the back line of the New England end zone, Chris Hanson got off his longest kick of the season -- 64 yards to the Miami 35, where it bounced out of bounds.

The Patriots were backed up deep following a goal line stand in which Miami QB Cleo Lemon threw an incompletion on third down from the 1 and then, on fourth down, just barely failed to get inside the pylon when he scrambled to his right and tried to run for the end zone. The play was reviewed, but the ruling on the field was upheld because Lemon was carrying the ball in his right hand and it clearly never crossed the goal line.
