DETROIT -- The Washington Redskins rushed Matthew Stafford with just three players on his last snap. And, he made them regret it.Stafford threaded a sharp pass between a lunging linebacker and a blanketing cornerback to Anquan Boldin for a go-ahead, 18-yard touchdown pass with 16 seconds left to lift the Detroit Lions to a 20-17 win over Washington on Sunday.We should have blitzed seven or eight, Redskins coach Jay Gruden lamented. But we were playing coverage that weve been playing for a long time and guys were comfortable with. (Linebacker) Will Compton missed it by a fraction of a hair.Boldin, a 14-year veteran, got just enough separation to get away from rookie cornerback Kendall Fuller, who was pressed into a larger role because Josh Norman was knocked out of the game with a concussion.He kind of slow played his guy in the slot, Stafford said. I cut it loose and I kind thought to myself, `Were going either win the game or lose the game on this one. It was a tight window. And, Ill take that every time. If I throw an interception right there, its on my back. Im fine with it, being aggressive and trying to score.Detroit (4-3) has won three straight thanks in large part to Stafford making clutch throws in the final minutes, giving him 24 career wins with game-winning drives in the fourth quarter or overtime.The Redskins (4-3) looked like they were going to extend their winning streak to five when Kirk Cousins scored a go-ahead TD on a 19-yard run with 1:05 left, but they couldnt stop Stafford. He opened the game-winning drive with a 23-yard pass to Marvin Jones, then ran up the middle for 14 yards and connected with former Redskins receiver Andre Roberts on a 20-yard catch before throwing the TD pass to Boldin.Here are other things we learned from Detroits win over Washington:TURNING POINTThe closely contested, low-scoring game included just two turnovers and Washington had both of them. Cousins fumbled in the third quarter at the Detroit 38 and Matt Jones fumbled into the Lions end zone late in the first quarter. After each turnover, the Lions made a field goal on the ensuing possession.Without question, that was a key, Detroit coach Jim Caldwell said.EMERGING OPTIONSThe Redskins may want to get the ball into the hands of receiver Jamison Crowder and running back Chris Thompson more often the rest of the season. Crowder had season highs with seven receptions and 108 yards, 1 yard from matching his career high set last year as a rookie against Dallas. Thompson set career highs with 12 carries and 73 yards rushing. He also had a season-high seven receptions for 40 yards, seemingly playing a larger role after Jones fumbled. Gruden insisted Jones was not demoted during the game.Im not going to give up on him for fumbling, Gruden said.CENTURY CLUBStafford has the most completions (2,410), yards passing (27,890), 350-yard passing games (18) among NFL quarterbacks in their first 100 games.I think Ill look back on it when Im done playing and Ill really appreciate it, Stafford said.HES STILL GOT ITWith Washington tight end Jordan Reed out for a second straight game because of a concussion, Vernon Davis made the most of his opportunity. The 32-year-old Davis had season highs with six receptions and 79 yards receiving, one week after having 50 yards receiving and a TD.BAD BOUNCEWashington kicker Dustin Hopkins had been almost perfect this season, missing only one of his 16 kicks. He matched his number of misses at Detroit, hitting the top of the left upright on a 45-yard attempt in the second quarter. Gruden, though, wasnt blaming his kicker for the setback.We missed a field goal and there are things in all three phases we can correct, he said.---Online: AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP-NFL---Follow Larry Lage at http://www.twitter.com/larrylage and follow his work at http://bigstory.ap.org/content/larry-lage Fake Yeezy 700 Salt . -- Arizona knocked off some quality opponents, rolled over a few overmatched ones and grinded out victories even when things didnt go so well.

SALT LAKE CITY -- U.S. Speedskating wrapped up its Short Track World Cup Qualifier on Sunday with three-time Olympic medalist J.R. Celski dominating for a second consecutive day. The event was used to determine the ISU World Cup team, which is scheduled to be announced Monday.Celski swept all four events over the two days, including wins in the 500 meters (41.380 seconds) and 1,000 (1:24.926) on Sunday.World Cup veteran John-Henry Krueger placed second in the 500 in 41.594 and third in the 1,000 in 1:25.061.I was focused on consistency and keeping my composure in each race, said Krueger, who had two second-place finishes Saturday. Im still pretty young, so I dont know if its right to say Im in my prime yet. In the sport of short track, youre always improving. You never reach a max level.Im focusing on the 2018 Olympics right now. Thats my main focus, just trying to build up my armor and the dream is to win gold.Thomas Insuk Hong took third in the 500 in 41.665 and Keith Carrol Jr. was second in the 1,000 in 1:25.041.The 22-year old Kimberly Goetz was the overall womens winner by placing second in all four events, including the 500 (44.308) and 1,000 (1:43.665) on Sunday. Two-time Olympic medalist Katherine Reutter, who has come out of retirement, won the 1,000 in 1:43.506 and Kristen Santos was third in 1:43.901. Jessica Smith-KKooreman won the 500 (44.dddddddddddd296) and Santos was third in 44.416.Goetz has made the last two World Cup teams and came in with the goal of winning the overall event. Shes more focused on learning this World Cup season with the hope of gaining the experience necessary to make an Olympic run at the PyeongChang Games in 2018.Its nice to have Katherine back and racing girls with a lot more experience than I have between her and Jessica Smith, Goetz said. Its good to kind of compare myself to them and Ive got a few weeks to work on things.Im definitely the rookie out there in terms of the top three or four girls. ... Im making baby steps. I dont feel like Im anywhere close to where I can be or where Id like to be. But Im definitely on my way. Ive got a lot to learn. ... I feel like Ive got 50 percent of it down and Im still missing that racing part.Goetz, Reutter, Smith-Kooreman, Santos, April Shin and Katherine Ralston finished the weekend as the top six women in the AmCup standings and are likely to be the six named to the World Cup team.Celski, Krueger, Carroll Jr., Adam Callister, Hong and Ryan Pivirotto were the top six men in the AmCup standings and are also likely to make the World Cup team.
