Brooklyn, MI (Sports Network) - Joey Logano gave his hopes of making the Chase for the Sprint Cup champion for the first time a huge boost by winning Sundays Pure Michigan 400 at Michigan International Speedway. Logano, who earned the pole with a new track qualifying record at this two- mile racetrack on Friday, grabbed the lead with less than four laps remaining when then leader Mark Martin ran out of fuel. Logano last pitted for fuel with 41 laps to go, while Martin made his stop nine laps earlier. Logano then held off Kevin Harvick at the finish by one second to claim his third career Sprint Cup Series win but his first since June 2012 at Pocono (45 races ago). He also moved from 16th to 13th in the point standings with just three races to go before Chase begins. The 23-year-old Logano is in his fifth full season in Sprint Cup competition but his first as driver of the No. 22 Ford for Penske Racing. On Saturday, A.J. Allmendinger drove Penskes No. 22 Nationwide Series car to victory at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course. Kurt Busch finished third, while Paul Menard and Clint Bowyer rounded out the top-five. Martin, who drives the No. 55 Michael Waltrip Racing Toyota part- time this season, ended up finishing one lap down in 27th. Jimmie Johnson, the current points leader and the only driver who has clinched a spot in the Chase, suffered engine failure in the early going and wound up finishing 40th. Johnson had to start from the rear of the field in a backup car after he wrecked his primary vehicle in Saturdays final practice. Stitched Jacksonville Jaguars Jerseys .

Im not used to losing. And hopefully, we fix it next year and get back on the right page.Buffalos drought is now tied as the NFLs 10th longest, and worst since the St. Louis/Phoenix/Arizona Cardinals went 15 years between playoff appearances from 1983-97.At least Watkins had a chance to crack a smile Monday. The first-round draft pick spoke while joining fellow rookies on a visit to Buffalos Womens and Childrens Hospital to deliver Christmas gifts and make holiday crafts.It hurts to lose the game, but its very important to wake up and start the day and come here and impact other peoples lives, he said. So I looked forward to just getting out of bed and not looking back on the game. Its over with.The Bills (8-7) are left playing a mean-nothing finale (for them) at AFC East rival New England (12-3) on Sunday.All thats on the line for Buffalo is an opportunity to win its first game at New England since Gillette Stadium opened in 2002, and finish with a winning record for the first time since going 9-7 in 2004.The loss to the Raiders (3-12) was a stunner, and exposed many of Buffalos season-long deficiencies on offence.It just breaks your heart, quarterback Kyle Orton said. It was all there. We just didnt have the execution. And in the end, it cost us.The slow-starting offence managed just 10 points and 145 yards on its firsst 10 possessions.dddddddddddd It closed by generating two touchdowns and 166 yards on its last four drives in a rally that fell short.That wasnt enough to overcome an uncharacteristically sloppy outing by a usually stingy defence.After not giving up a touchdown pass against Denvers Peyton Manning and Green Bays Aaron Rodgers in its previous two games, Buffalo allowed Raiders rookie Derek Carr to throw two.There really arent any words for how disappointed I am just with myself and the way we played in general, safety Aaron Williams said. We just let it slip away.The offence provided little help.On 13 carries, Buffalo managed 13 yards, the fourth-lowest total in team history.The ground game has sputtered all season in having managed 1,378 yards through 15 games. The Bills low for a 16-game season is 1,552 set in 2006.Coach Doug Marrone blamed the offensive line.They kicked our butt up front, Marrone said. When you do that, its difficult to run, pass and do a lot of things.The loss renewed questions regarding Marrones job security after his second season. The franchise is entering a new era under owners Terry and Kim Pegula, who purchased the team in October.The Pegulas previously expressed a desire to wait until after the season to evaluate the franchise so as not to distract the team.After beating Green Bay last week, Bills President Russ Brandon voiced his support for Marrone by saying the coach has the team on the right path. Following the loss at Oakland, Marrone insisted hes not going anywhere when asked about a report linking him to the vacancy at Michigan.I have nothing to do with that job, Marrone said. Youre stuck with me.
