KITCHENER, Ont. -- Kelly Scott became the first curler to advance to the Page playoffs of the 2013 Capital One Road to the Roar Olympic pre-trial tournament with an 8-5 win over Renee Sonnenberg in the womens A-event final on Thursday. Scott and her teammates moved one step closer to locking down one of the final four spots at next months Tim Hortons Roar of the Rings Olympic trials, where eight mens and eight womens teams will be vying for the chance to represent Canada at the 2014 Sochi Games. The Kelowna, B.C., skip broke a close game open in the seventh end. Sonnenberg, from Grande Praire, Alta., had a chance for a double takeout with two Scott stones in the rings, but her rock barely ticked shot stone and sailed through the house, leaving Scott with a steal of two and a 6-3 lead. Scott used the hitting power of teammates Sasha Carter and Jeanna Schraeder to keep the house clean from then on, blanking the ninth and hitting out the 10th for the win. "Any time you can steal late in the game, especially a deuce, that does definitely give you an edge, and advantage," said Scott. "It was not an easy sheet to play finesse shots on, so we definitely got the easier shot selection after we jumped ahead three points. But they did a good job of hanging in there and making us execute those peels or they could have been right back in it." "Goal number one was to get through to that qualifying round," added Scott about clinching a playoff spot. "You want to be in that A versus B game, but that sometimes doesnt pan out. We couldnt have scripted a better start to this whole event for ourselves." Scott will face either Sonnenberg again or Cathy Auld of Mississauga, Ont., in the Page playoff. Sonnenberg recovered with a 7-6 win over Tracy Horgan in the evening draw. Shell next face Auld, who edged Val Sweeting 7-6. Elsewhere, both 2010 silver-medallist Calgarys Cheryl Bernard and Edmontons Laura Crocker both staved off elimination with crucial C-Event victories. Bernard got off to a fast start with three in the second end and a deuce in the fourth en route to an 11-5 triumph over Winnipegs Barb Spencer. Crocker, meanwhile, stole five in the seventh end to beat Krista McCarville 10-3. On the mens side, John Morriss rink from Kelowna and Vernon, B.C., earned a spot in the Page playoff with an 8-3 win over Brad Gushue of St. Johns, N.L., in the A-event final. It was battle of skips who have claimed the last two Olympic gold medals. Gushue won in 2006 at Turin, Italy, throwing last rocks for a team skipped by Russ Howard, while Morris won in 2010 at Vancouver throwing third rocks for Kevin Martin. Morris will play the B-event winner Saturday, with the winner advancing directly to the Roar of the Rings. The loser of that game will play the winner of a contest between the two C-Event winners on Sunday for the other Trials berth. Gushue will be back on the ice Friday against reigning Brier champion Brad Jacobs of Sault Ste. Marie, Ont., in a B-event semifinal. Jordan Shoes Uk Sale .

For the four road teams – the Baltimore Ravens, Carolina Panthers, Dallas Cowboys and Indianapolis Colts – the task of playing on the road gets even tougher when considering the records of their opponents on home turf. The New England Patriots, Seattle Seahawks, Green Bay Packers and Denver Broncos combined for a record of 30-2 at home this season, marking just the seventh time in history in which the four host teams combined for that record or better. The last instance of four dominating home teams hosting games in the second round of the playoffs came in 2011. That year, the San Francisco 49ers, Patriots and Ravens all picked up wins at home, while the Packers lost the eventual champion New York Giants. In 2014, the Patriots reeled off seven straight home wins to start the season before losing in Week 17 to the Buffalo Bills, a game in which they rested their starters. Tom Brady threw 19 touchdowns and three interceptions at Gillette Stadium this season and was sacked just six times. His passer rating at home sat at 103.8 compared to his 90.4 mark on the road. Brady also threw for 682 yards with six touchdowns and two interceptions in two home games against the Denver Broncos and Detroit Lions this season, both were top-three defences. The Ravens will look to continue a string of postseason success in Foxborough on Saturday. Baltimore has won two of three playoff games against the Patriots since 2009, all of which were played in New England. Those two losses to Joe Flacco and the Ravens equate to half of the Patriots all-time home postseason losses in their 15-4 record. In Seattle, the Panthers will be forced to play in one of the NFLs toughest home venue, and a stadium where the Seahawks have lost just twice in two years. The Seahawks lone home loss this season came in Week 6 as the fell 30-23 to the Dallas Cowboys. They have outscored opponents 124-57 in their five home wins since. The Panthers will play their first road playoff since 2005 on Saturday, ending a drought that begin with a 31-14 loss to Seattle in the NFC Championship Game. The Green Bay Packers have lost four straiight playoff games to the Dallas Cowboys.dddddddddddd. Green Bays last win over Dallas came, not surprisingly, in their last home game against the Cowboys. That win came in the 1967 Ice Bowl, and though forecasts dont project the game to be nearly as cold as that, the Packers have no trouble winning at home – warm or cold – this season. The Packers led the league in points per game, point differential and turnover margin at home this season while going a perfect 8-0. The Cowboys, however, also led the league in all those marks on the road while being the only NFL team to go perfect away from home. Green Bay averaged just shy of 40 points per game at home this season, the highest average of any home team in the last three seasons. Jumping out to early leads, the Packers outscored opponents by 154 in the first half at home. With several games already in hand, the Packers failed in many games to put second-half points, outscoring opponents by one point in the third and fourth quarters. The Packers won their first 13 home playoff games, but have struggled in more recent history. In their last eight home postseason games, the Packers are 3-5. That stretch began with a loss to the Atlanta Falcons in the 2002 Wild Card Round. Like the Packers, the Broncos also went a perfect 8-0 at Mile High Stadium this season. Its the sixth time in franchise history Denver has run the table at home, theyve won the Super Bowl twice after such seasons. The Broncos home win streak this season opened with a 31-24 victory over the Colts, Manning went 4-for-4 in that game when targeting tight end Julius Thomas with two touchdown passes. Including their Week 1 loss to the Broncos, the Colts went 5-3 on the road this season but with only win over a .500 or better team. Andrew Lucks passer rating was 93.1 on the road this season compared to 100.2 at home, he is also 0-2 on the road in his postseason career. Against one of the most dominant groups of home teams in NFL history, every road team enters the Divisional Round as at least six-point underdogs. With cold temperatures or precipitation expected at every venue this weekend, road teams will have to survive the weather on top of the intimidating atmosphere to earn a spot in a championship game.
