Notes: The Patriots came
from behind to go 16-0 on the season against a tough Giants team that nearly
pulled the upset. Tom Brady (32-for-42
for 356 yards) passed Colts QB Peyton Manning's mark for the most touchdown
passes in a single season with two touchdowns against the Giants, bringing his
season total to 50. WR Randy Moss moved
ahead of Jerry Rice for the most touchdown receptions in a single season, with
two in the game for a season total of 23. Brady and Moss achieved their records on the
same play, a 65-yard bomb that turned out to be the winning score.
