For 59 minutes and 51 seconds, more offensive futility. No touchdowns, no life and seemingly no hope. And then a last minute drive led to a one-yard scoring pass from Tom Brady to rookie TE Cade Otton with nine seconds remaining and the season remained alive at 4-5. The defense did its part with four sacks and big stops all day whilst rookie punter Jake Camarda tied the franchise record with a 74-yard kick and had the best average day in franchise history.
