So New England hasn’t done anything offensively.
They were gifted six points due to Stidham panicking

I’m glad a long suffering franchise like the Patriots are back in the SB.
As much as I’m sick of the Patriots in the Super Bowl, it gives me a lot of joy to see Peyton go home because of his arrogance in the first half
Patriots going to the Super bowl, again

Well, Vance Joseph is available. 
Another lesson on why you take the points early in the game

I said in the 1st quarter that Denver passing on the field goal would be huge. I had no idea I’d be so correct.

It's a new thing. Years ago I can't remember any of the coaches not taking the points.

Game was lost when SP decided not to take the points. I can't understand why all of these coaches have to be cute now and go for it so often on 4th down. In a close game especially at home, take points whenever you can get them. That and some really inopportune drops by Denver's WR's and it was over. SMH. Such a winnable game, too.

Payton is a dip****. I say that as a long time Broncos fan.
Yeah, my brother & I were both yelling “Take the points!” when they went for it. Seriously, with a backup QB, you have to be smarter there.

The first half of Sunday’s AFC Championship included an officiating error that robbed the Patriots of a defensive touchdown. And while they still ended up with possession (and scoring on a 12-yard drive), the officials mistakenly ruled a backward pass to be an incomplete forward pass.
