It took until late in the fourth quarter, the New England Patriots finally managed to grab a lead against the Miami Dolphins. Running back James White took the screen pass with his team down 20-17 and found his way into the end zone on an 13-yard touchdown pass to put New England up 24-20 with just under four minutes to play.

That play could have massive implications on the playoffs. If the Patriots manage to hang on, they'll secure a first-round bye, forcing the Kansas City Chiefs to stick with the No. 3 seed.
