New England Patriots Blast By Jacksonville Jaguars
The Patriots made history last night in brushing aside the Jacksonville Jaguars 28-3 by becoming the first team to win ten consecutive playoff games. It's one more win than the Packers managed under the legendary Vince Lombardi in the 1960's. Ironically, the last post-season game that the Patriots lost was in January 1999...to Jacksonville.
Tom Brady, who has been involved in every victory during New England's streak, completed fifteen passes for 201 yards and three touchdowns - with no turnovers.
He connected with Troy Brown from eleven yards out to begin the scoring in the second quarter and led 7-3 at halftime. He threw three yards to Givens in the third and then found Watson for a 63-yard catch and run that build the lead to 21-3.
New England will either travel to play the Broncos or the Colts, depending on the outcome of the Pittsburgh Steelers and Cincinnati Bengals game.
The worry for the Patriots is that they have already lost pretty convincingly to both Indianapolis and the Broncos - the upside is that New England now look like a completely different team.
