Patriots Outlast Ravens, Advance to Super Bowl
It was a prime-time battle with the winner earning a trip to Super Bowl XLVI. It was as much a slugfest in the trenches as it was a war of player attrition and missed opportunities. In the end, it was the home team that emerged victorious by what can only be called the strangest of [...]
Brady Busts Broncos; Tebow Turns Terrible
Not even a desperation Hail Mary pass from Broncos quarterback Tim Tebow in the third quarter of Saturday’s NFL playoff game between Denver and New England would have made any difference.
