South Korea, Japan strike deal on comfort women
Abe told reporters in Tokyo that Japan has apologized and expressed its remorse, but added future Japanese generations should not have to keep on doing so.
After scoring only two offensive touchdowns in last week’s win over the Tennessee Titans, the Patriots scored only one offensive touchdown against the Jets, and that lack of production cost them the game. Jamie Collins returned a fumble by Fitzpatrick for a touchdown in the third quarter, and Brady led a 66-yard drive in the closing minutes of the fourth quarter to tie the game up at 20.
“Star Wars: The Force Awakens” Continues To Break Box Office Records
The highest-grossing film title in history is owned by “Avatar”, a title that “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” wants to claim. Right now 0 million is the safer bet (very safe), but billion is absolutely well within the realm of possibility too.
– Dennis Waszak reporting from East Rutherford, N.J. At the very least, Belichick must have believed the Patriots would limit the Jets to no more than a field goal, then Brady would win it with a touchdown or extend it with a field goal. They already have a much-needed first-round playoff bye.

Things didn’t slow down for the Thunder in the third quarter, and opened the frame on a 22-to-0 run to take a 79-46 lead. Guard Gary Harris tied a career-high with 21, and centre Nikola Jokic had 15 points and 10 rebounds for Denver (11-17).
“They don’t pay me to manage the games, it’s not my decision, so when I’m told to do something that’s what I’m going to do”, said Slater, who last week was selected to his fifth Pro Bowl. “We’re on to next week”.
Three plays later, Ryan Fitzpatrick threw a 6-yard touchdown pass to Eric Decker, giving the Jets a 26-20 victory over the Patriots at MetLife Stadium. Now the Jets can just focus on beating the Bills up in Buffalo next Sunday and they’re in regardless of what any other AFC team does. That decision worked. This one flopped, and Fitzpatrick and the Jets made the Patriots pay.
It was the third time since the 2012 rule change a team chose to kick off for OT. Chris Ivory had a 17-yard run to the New England 13 during the march, but exited the game in the second quarter because of a knee injury.
That’s how you get special teams captain Matthew Slater standing at midfield after winning the coin toss, saying, “We want to kick, that way”, and point a finger toward an end zone.
According to audio from the CBS broadcast, Blakeman said: “Heads is the call”. Is that why the ref immediately asked, “Do you want to kick off?” once the flip was over? I just think collectively players and the coaching staff reeled it in and got tighter as a group and just went for it, man. It’s been a wonderful thing to be a part of actually playing meaningful football in December.
You’d nearly expect to see more fights breaking out there as well, especially if the Jets won that game as well, because, well, it’s the Patriots and Jets and their fans despise one another.
Slater acknowledged that he was simply trying to get clarification from Blakeman on not being able to choose the direction of their kick. We wanted to force him to make a decision he didn’t want to make.
REX IS NEXT: The Jets are on the verge of their first postseason appearance since the 2010 season.
Ryan coached the Jets from 2009-14, leading them to the AFC title game in each of his first two seasons. 55 minutes of this game this offense was in a quagmire there are only touchdown what’s the scoop and score of fifteen yards fourteen yards I think it was.
Jets (10-5) – New York, with its win over New England and Pittsburgh’s loss to Baltimore, controls its own playoff destiny and, as of now, is in the tournament. But a loss and two wins by Cincinnati would put the Bengals at No. 1 and the Patriots No. 2.
The team’s half-dozen key players on injured reserve is a fine place to start looking at New England’s problems.
“It’s tough”, Patriots running back James White said.
Quarterback Kellen Moore could not spark the Cowboys (4-11), completing 13 of 31 passes for 186 yards and an interception.
The Jets had a 10-3 lead at the half. I’ll say that. The guys who can do something about it and make a difference that are on the field have to go out and try to play well and win for this team – win for the guys who aren’t out there playing for us. Charlie Whitehurst came in and played the rest of the game at quarterback. The Jets’ lone drive in overtime, capped off by Ryan Fitzpatrick’s six-yard touchdown fade to Eric Decker, featured a series of blunders by New England’s usually strong defense.
