NORTON, Mass. -- Three holes into the Deutsche Bank Championship, Rory McIlroy had to make a 15-foot putt just to escape with triple bogey.He already was 4-over-par and had every reason to believe this tournament was headed for an outcome that was becoming far too familiar for a player of his class. But there was one difference.His head didnt drop. His shoulders didnt sag.McIlroy went from a miserable start to a memorable finish, closing with a 6-under 65 on Monday to make up a six-shot deficit and win the Deutsche Bank Championship for his 20th career title around the world.Its just incredible, this game, how quickly things can change, McIlroy said after his two-shot victory over Paul Casey. Its been a great lesson for me this week not to get down on myself, to stay patient. After three holes Friday, there was so much going through my head, and none of those things involved sitting beside a trophy.Not just a trophy, but a belt, too.Deutsche Bank gave him the blue belt with a large silver buckle when McIlroy won four years ago, and because this was the last year it is sponsoring the tournament, the company wanted him to keep it.World heavyweight title, McIlroy said of the belt.Not quite, but certainly a step in that direction.A new putter, a new putting coach, and suddenly he looks like the McIlroy of old. It was his first PGA Tour victory of the year and moved him to No. 4 in the FedEx Cup, all but assuring him a clear shot at the $10 million bonus when he gets to the Tour Championship at the end of the month.In a strengthening wind from Hermine that penalized the slightest misses at the TPC Boston, McIlroy closed out the front nine with three straight birdies to take the lead for the first time, went ahead to stay with a 20-foot birdie on the 12th hole and left no doubt with a 3-wood into the wind and over the hazard on the par-5 18th hole that set up a birdie from the bunker.Casey, who started the final round with a three-shot lead in his bid for his first PGA Tour victory since 2009, closed with a 73. He had a 60-foot eagle putt on the final hole that would have forced a playoff. It went 8 feet by and he missed the meaningless birdie putt.Wow, very impressive. Yeah, thats a might round of golf, Casey said of McIlroys finish. I struggled a little bit from the get-go and its hard to regain rhythm and make your birdies if you started out that way, so I found it incredibly difficult. I battled well, did a lot of things brilliantly all week, but obviously frustrated.The only consolation for Casey was that his runner-up finish moved him from No. 59 to No. 10 in the FedEx Cup, assuring a spot in the Tour Championship for the first time since 2010. PGA champion Jimmy Walker closed with a 70 to finish third.The top 70 advance to the BMW Championship, which starts Thursday at Crooked Stick in Indiana. Among those who moved into the top 70 was David Hearn of Canada, who came into the week at No. 92. Hearn closed with a 70 and tied for eighth.McIlroy, who finished at 15-under 269, moves back to No. 3 in the world.The 27-year-old from Northern Ireland fell out of the Big 3 conversation earlier this year when Dustin Johnson won the U.S. Open, Henrik Stenson won the British Open and McIlroy kept sliding, largely because of his putting. His only victory was the Irish Open in May, and when he missed the cut in the PGA Championship, he sought out popular British putting coach Phil Kenyon. McIlroy also switched putters last week at Bethpage Black, though he was at the bottom of the pack in putting.Not this week.He didnt need to make everything in the final round, with his driving and short game setting up three early birdies. But he made an 18-foot birdie on the par-3 eighth, and followed that with a 10-footer on the ninth to make the turn in 31.As the wind picked up, no one could stay with him.I wasnt getting impatient. I wasnt searching, McIlroy said. I know that I hadnt won on the PGA Tour in a while, but over the past 12 months, Ive still had three wins worldwide. ... I knew my game was in good shape, I just needed to do something with the putting. I found something. I still need to keep going with it. Its definitely not the finished article, but its a big step in the right direction. Authentic Custom Texans Jersey .

Custom Texans Jersey China .Y. -- Buffalo Bills coach Doug Marrone has drawn on his Syracuse connections once again by hiring Rob Moore to take over as receivers coach. MIAMI -- Jay Ajayi has a chance to become the first NFL player to rush for 200 yards in three consecutive games when the Dolphins play the Jets, so imagine the stir he created while visiting New York last weekend during his teams bye week.Lots of attention, right? Wrong.A couple of people at the hotel, maybe, Ajayi said with a grin, but Im still just me, I guess.Not to the Jets. Theyll be geared to stop Ajayi and deny him a rushing record.Were not going to be a footnote in history, defensive lineman Sheldon Richardson said.The Dolphins (3-4) and Jets (3-5) have each revived their season with two consecutive victories, but one of those streaks will end Sunday.Here are some things to know about the 102nd meeting of AFC East rivals:RECORD RUSHER: Ajayi was the Dolphins Mr. October, tying an NFL record by topping 200 yards rushing in consecutive games before the bye.The second-year pro more than doubled his career rushing total, and a lot of his yards in the two games were hard-earned. Ajayi forced 12 missed tackles in 53 carries, and 277 of his 418 yards came after contact, according to Pro Football Focus.Now he and the Dolphins face a Jets run defense ranked No. 1 in the league at 74 yards per game.We know were going to have a good challenge, Ajayi said. At the same time, were not worried about anybody else. Were worried about ourselves. If we do our jobs and we go out there like we know we can play, I think were going to have a good day.The Jets are confident, too. The only previous time they faced Ajayi, he carried three times for 6 yards.Hes a decent back, Richardson said.IT STARTS UP FRONT: While Ajayi has been tough to tackle , he has also benefited from gaping holes courtesy of a group of blockers paving the way for the teams turnaround.It was like we were searching for an identity, first-year Miami coach Adam Gase said, and they basically said, `Well, this is going to be our identity, whether you like it or not. You better start calling runs, because were going to get you yards.The offensive line includes first-round pick Laremy Tunsil, who has become a force at left guard and is coming off his best game yet against the Bills.If you watch his first pull in the game, I think he could have played for Vince Lombardi and run tthe Green Bay sweep, offensive coordinator Clyde Christensen said.ddddddddddddFITZ REBOUNDS: Ryan Fitzpatrick got off to a rough start to the season with 11 interceptions in the first six games, and was benched in favor of Geno Smith. After Smith was lost for the season because of a knee injury, the Jets turned back to Fitzpatrick, who had a brutal first half last week against the Browns, going 3 of 14 for 30 yards.Joe Namath, among others, took to social media to call for Fitzpatrick to be benched again in favor of Bryce Petty. But Fitzpatrick turned things around in the second half and helped lead the Jets to a 31-28 victory.Hes confident he can lead the Jets on the type of run that got them within a win of the playoffs last season.Expectations for us are weve got to win them all, Fitzpatrick said. I mean, thats what we hope to do. I think we have the right guys in the locker room to do it.FORTE FEELS FINE: Matt Forte has put to rest -- at least for now -- any concerns about whether he had anything left in his 30-year-old legs.He had 82 yards and two touchdowns on 25 carries last week at Cleveland, a week after rushing for 100 yards and a touchdown on 30 carries against Baltimore.Forte ranks ninth in the NFL with 542 yards rushing, and his six TD runs ties him for fourth.Q IS THE ANSWER: Quincy Enunwa has stepped in for the injured Eric Decker and become a key playmaker for the Jets offense.The 2014 sixth-round draft pick out of Nebraska leads New York with 36 receptions for 502 yards and three touchdowns, including a 57-yarder last week in which he ran through four tackles to get into the end zone. Enunwa also broke up a would-be interception.Hes playing with so much confidence, Fitzpatrick said. He wants to be that guy, and he has really come through this year for us. We expect a lot out of him, and expect him to continue doing it.---AP Sports Writer Dennis Waszak in New York contributed to this report.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and http://twitter.com/AP-NFL---Follow Steven Wine on Twitter: http://twitter.com/Steve-Wine.
