The journey begins here! The New England Patriots will play the Tennessee Titans today at 8:15pm. The Patriots, as they have done throughout their storied dynasty, have gotten a first round bye and will have home field advantage throughout the playoffs. Even though they were on a bye, there has been a lot of talk of the Patriots in the media specifically surrounding QB Tom Brady and Head Coach Bill Belichick. While some pundits are speculating that this might be the end of this power duo, no one does it better than the Patriots in blocking out the media and focusing on the task at hand.

Roll Patriots!

What a game we had on Sunday!

The New England Patriots faced off against the Los Angeles Chargers in a soaked Gillette Stadium. The Patriots won 21-13 in decisive fashion. QB Tom Brady had yet another standout game, throwing for 333 yards and a touchdown to TE Rob Gronkowski in the first quarter. The touchdown marked the 72nd time the two have connected for a score and it is the most TDs among any NFL duo since 2010. The Player of the Game for the Patriots, however, was kicker Stephen Gostkowski, who successfully made 4 field goals while playing in the elements.

What a great day to be a Bostonian! The 121st Boston Marathon took place today and it was certainly one to remember. The first winners to cross the finish line did so in record-breaking fashion. For the men's wheelchair race, in yet another close finish, Marcel Hug edged his long time rival, Ernst van Dyk for the victory. This victory gave Hug his third straight wheelchair title in the Boston Marathon. Hug, a 31-year-old Swiss native, set a Boston marathon record, finishing in 1:18:03.
