FOXBOROUGH – DeMario Douglas’s foot was inches away from where it needed to be.
On 4th-and-1 with 1:05 remaining in the game and the Patriots trailing by a touchdown, Douglas caught the ball with a tiny amount of space between him and the yard line he needed to cross.
But instinctively, as he sensed defenders chasing after him, Douglas tried to make a move and wound up going backwards for a one-yard loss. The Patriots turned the ball over on downs and Pittsburgh was able to run out the clock and win the game.
