The One Where the Patriots Go To the SuperBowl Again

 

 

 


The Patriots played the Denver Broncos in the AFC Championship game. It was a hard fought, sloopy game in weather that quickly became cold, windy, and snowy in Denver....a true house of horrors for the Patriots in the past.


However the Patriots, down 7-0, found a way to comeback with a turnover followed by a touchdown and then a field goal before conditions turned awful.


In the end, they held on for a 10-7 win and their record 12th appearance in the Superbowl, where they will have a rematch with the Seahawks!!!


Go PATS!!!

The One With the Patriots Returning to the Superbowl


PATS WIN, PATS WIN, PATS WIN


Earlier this evening, the Patriots did what many thought was the impossible. They won the AFC Championship with a 37-31 OT victory over the Kansas City Chiefs. It was an amazing game with so many subplots:

Old QB vs. Future QB
Bill Belichick vs. Andy Reid
Gronk vs. Kelce
Brady vs the World

It was a tough game with excellent defense by the Pats as they went into the half up 14 to 0. However, we all know that KC has been tough all year and because they were the home team - and the Pats have had trouble on the road in the playoffs - all signs pointed to a comeback. And they did, taking the lead in the 4th quarter and then tying the game with 11 seconds left to play. Wow!

However, Tom Brady, who has shown signs of age this season, showed what he had when he needed it most, orchestrating a masterful lead drive in OT, and guiding the Pats to their 11 ever AFC Championship!

Amazing! Now onto the Superbowl, where they will meet the LA Rams (the team, though from St. Louis, that they beat to win their first Superbowl). In the proverbial words of 1980s Bostonians...Beat LA.
