Patriots roll past Titans, Eagles clip Falcons
Print Edition
The Super Bowl champion New England Patriots beat the Tennessee Titans 35-14 on Saturday to move within one win of a return to the NFL鈥檚 championship showcase.
But the Atlanta Falcons, the team the Patriots stunned in last season鈥檚 Super Bowl, won鈥檛 get a shot at redemption after falling 10-15 to the Philadelphia Eagles.
Another milestone night for superstar quarterback Tom Brady saw the Patriots roll past the Titans and into their seventh straight American Football Conference title game. They will face either the Jacksonville Jaguars or Pittsburgh Steelers for a berth in the February 4 Super Bowl.
In frigid temperatures at the Patriots鈥 Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Massachusetts, the Titans seized a 7-0 lead. But the Patriots responded with a vengeance, with three second-quarter touchdowns giving them a 21-7 halftime lead that they stretched to 35-7 before the Titans tacked on another touchdown in the fourth quarter.
Brady completed 35 of 53 passes for 337 yards and three touchdowns as he set an NFL record with his 10th career post-season game with three TD passes.
In Philadelphia, the Eagles鈥 Nick Foles, who has struggled to convince since replacing quarterback Carson Wentz, finished the game with 246 passing yards, making 23 of 30 attempts. Foles overcame a slow start to set up a touchdown for LeGarrette Blount from one yard on a brave fourth down play in the second quarter to give the Eagles a 6-3 lead.
