Jets edge Chargers in overtime thriller

NFL.com wire reports

SAN DIEGO (Jan. 8, 2005) -- The same New York Jets who backed into the playoffs were the latest team to usher Marty Schottenheimer into the offseason.

Doug Brien kicked a 28-yard field goal with 5 seconds left in overtime to get linebacker Eric Barton off the hook for a huge penalty and give the Jets a 20-17 upset over the Chargers in a wild-card game Saturday night.

The winning drive started on the New York 30 after Chargers rookie Nate Kaeding was wide right on a 40-yard field goal try with 4:19 left in overtime. It included an 18-yard pass from Chad Pennington to Santana Moss that was upheld on review.
The Jets celebrated wildly while Schottenheimer walked across the field with a far-off look on his face. Finish Article
