ATLANTA (AP) — For five plays Max Scharping Jersey , and for 2 minutes, 49 seconds, Tom Brady looked like Tom Brady and the Patriots offense looked like the one that cruised up and down the field for most of the season.Turns out, that’s all they needed.On a day that knocked two of the NFL’s highest-flying scoring machines back into the 1970s — or ’50s — Brady mustered one good drive when it mattered.He went 4-for-4, including a perfect teardrop pass nestled into the hands of Rob Gronkowski , to set up the game’s only touchdown on the way to a 13-3 victory over the Los Angeles Rams.New England won its record-tying sixth Super Bowl title. Brady became the first player to win six rings.All on the strength of one measly touchdown — in the lowest-scoring Super Bowl ever.“We could’ve played better offensively,” Brady said, “but the reality is, you get into these games and you just need to figure out a way to win it.”Make no mistake — they won it with defense. And kicking. And Julian Edelman, the diminutive receiver who found gaps in the Los Angeles zone and caught a game-high 10 passes for 141 yards. He was named Most Valuable Player.“The defense was unreal,” Edelman said. “They should be the MVP.”Brady, who has won that award four times, was fine — but nothing more — until the drive that began with 9:49 remaining, with the game tied at 3 in the first Super Bowl to go three quarters without a touchdown.He hit Gronkowski for 18 yards, found Edelman in the zone for 13. He threw a dump-off pass to Rex Burkhead for seven. Then, the best pass of the day — the 29-yard completion to Gronkowski, who was double-covered and had Rams linebacker Cory Littleton practically dragging him to the ground as he made the catch.“Tom threw it to me and I had to make a play,” Gronkowski said. “I just come through whenever it’s that time. He knows to trust in me.”Sony Michel took the handoff on the next play for a 2-yard score. Anyone who had only tuned in for that drive might have wondered what all the fuss — and all the yawning — was about.For anyone outside of linebackers http://www.texansauthorizedshops.com/authentic-kahale-warring-jersey , defensive coordinators and people who bet the under (56 ½ points), this was ugly.Brady and the Patriots looked nothing like the team that averaged more than 27 points a game this season,that put up 37 points against the Chiefs in the AFC title game, that didn’t allow a sack — and barely allowed Brady to be touched — in the two playoff games leading to the trip to Atlanta.Brady finished 21 for 35 for 262 yards and an interception. He got sacked once but harassed a lot more by Rams defenders. The Rams would’ve gladly said ‘yes’ if someone had told them they’d give up just 13 points to the league’s biggest big-game quarterback.On this day, though, 13 points were plenty for the Pats.But what a far cry this was from two years ago, when the Patriots scored 31 points in the second half and overtime for a 34-28 come-from-behind win over Atlanta and title No. 5. Or even last year, when they moved up and down the field with the Eagles, but lost 41-33.“We couldn’t get points on the board for one reason or another,” Brady said, “but in the end, it feels a lot better than last year, when we did get some points on the board.”In this one, Brady’s very first pass— after New England started the game with four straight runs that got them to the Rams 34 — got tipped up by receiver Chris Hogan, who collided with Nickell Robey-Coleman, then picked off by Littleton.After that, the Patriots moved the ball, but ended up with very little to show for it. They outgained Los Angeles 195-57 in the first half but had one Stephen Gostkowski field goal — and another Gostkowski miss — for a paltry 3-0 lead.The Rams tied it late in the third quarter on a 53-yard field goal by Greg Zuerlein.Then Cullen Gillaspia Jersey , suddenly, Brady looked like Brady again. It didn’t last long. It was more than enough. Now that he’s no longer an active player, maybe Ichiro Suzuki wants to start swinging for the fences.

How about at next month’s Home Run Derby during All-Star festivities in Washington?

What began as light-hearted banter among Seattle Mariners coaches grew into something that caused a stir in the clubhouse before Wednesday night’s game against the New York Yankees.

”He’s got power and he’s been launching balls into the seats,” Mariners manager Scott Servais said. ”A couple of coaches said the other day, `You know, no one wants to do this Home Run Derby. Why don’t we just send Ichiro? He’d be awesome.”’

The idea gained momentum when Servais mentioned it on a radio show Wednesday, and suddenly a new Twitter hashtag was born – (hash)IchiForDC.

Not officially retired but unlikely to appear in another major league game, the Japanese-born Suzuki shifted to a new role with Seattle as special assistant to the chairman in early May after batting .205 in 15 games this season. The 44-year-old travels with the team and is in uniform for games, helping out with batting practice and other drills while keeping a locker in the clubhouse.

Even though he’s still in game shape, Suzuki didn’t seem to be entertaining the idea of throwing his hat in the ring for the annual power contest.

”I’m not a player (anymore) and just the long, great history that MLB has, I don’t think it would be good for it,” Suzuki said through a translator. ”But I think it’s fun and I’m happy that it’s come up.”

Servais was happy the concept was being discussed, even if it was nothing more than a joke.

”This is really good because he’s been giving me a hard time so I’m really glad to throw this back in his lap,” he said with a grin.

Suzuki, the 2001 AL MVP and Rookie of the Year, found humor in the situation – but promised revenge on Servais.

”It’s the funniest thing he’s said this first half of the year,” Suzuki said. ”I’m definitely going to get him back. I’m going to continue to get him.”

Suzuki has 3 Tytus Howard Jersey ,089 big league hits, but only 117 of those were home runs. Despite reaching double-digit homers in just three of his 18 major league seasons, Suzuki often displayed surprising power in batting practice and it was widely believed he could have clubbed a lot more over the fence if he tried.

But the 10-time All-Star maintained his unorthodox, slashing swing throughout his career, leading the league in hits seven times.

”Right now I’m eating two hamburgers at lunch, and now that this Home Run Derby thing came up I’ll have to up it to three cheeseburgers for lunch, get some more power,” he quipped.

If Suzuki did try his hand against some of the game’s top sluggers in the nation’s capital, however, he knows who he’d want pitching to him.

”Mark Buehrle,” he said, after a long, contemplative pause.

Suzuki was 27 for 66 (.409) against the left-hander, who won 214 games over 16 seasons.
