Of course, this video has all of Patriots Nation hyped up.
Patriots Overtime Win
Since this season wasn’t perfect in the Patriots eyes or the fans; the Patriots were up for the challenge. From the beginning of the playoffs; Julian Edelman came up with a “Bet Against Us” Video.
In fact, this game had a lot of ups and downs. Not only did the score change a few times in the fourth quarter; but both Tom Brady and Julian Edelman were intercepted.
With 39 seconds left in the fourth quarter, the Kansas City Chiefs scored a field goal to tie up the game. In overtime, the Patriots had the ball first and scored a touchdown to win in this exciting victory.
And, though the Patriots haven’t been successful in road wins this season; winning an AFC Championship game on the road was a gratifying win for the Patriots team.
Patriots Overtime Win has them heading to the Super Bowl
Consequently, both the Los Angeles Rams and the New England Patriots were the visiting team and the Number 2 seeded teams; yet both teams won on the road and both games went into overtime to win the AFC Conference Finals.
Now, the Patriots will head to Atlanta to play the Los Angeles Rams in their 9th Super Bowl appearance. With the Patriots overtime win, they had time to celebrate; but now have to prepare for another big game.
So, this will be the third trip in a row for the New England Patriots to head back to the Super Bowl. In 2017, the Pats had an exciting win against Atlanta.
