The New England Patriots are gearing up for the Super Bowl, while the team they defeated in the AFC Championship Game, the Denver Broncos, is making coaching changes. NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero reported on Tuesday that the Broncos have parted ways with offensive coordinator Joe Lombardi.

Even the NFL playoffs weren't exempt from the extreme winter weather that battered much of the U.S. this past weekend. As the Patriots and Broncos started the fourth quarter of the AFC Championship, the conditions in Denver deteriorated rapidly.

The kick was blocked by Leonard Taylor III, but the Broncos may have inadvertently helped that happen. After the game, Lutz revealed that he and punter/holder Jeremy Crawshaw may have lined up a yard too close to the line of scrimmage because they couldn't clearly see the hashmarks on the field.

Nik Bonitto insists Broncos were the "better team" after losing AFC championship game. That's not the case, as the Patriots proved.

The New England Patriots offense received a boost on the eve of the AFC Championship Game against the Denver Broncos. Mack Hollins, who had led the team’s wide receivers in snaps before suffering an abdomen injury in late December, was reactivated after a four-week stint on injured reserve.
