Best Denver Broncos Moments against the Patriots
By Tylor Walden
C.J Anderson’s Game Winning Run Ends Patriots Undefeated Season
Surprised that this one is lower on the list. But there were not a lot of moments that were mentioned. So, we bring it back to the last time Brock Osweiler played New England in a Broncos uniform.
The Patriots appeared to be in firm control of this game. They were up 21-7 early in the fourth quarter. But Brock Osweiler and the Broncos mounted a comeback. Following a muffed punt by New England, the Broncos went to work. They would go on to score 17 unanswered points to take a 24-21 lead. However, the Patriots kicked a field goal to tie the game as time expired.
The Patriots would get the football first, but would go three and out. Possession went to the Broncos via a punt. On the third play of the Broncos drive, this happened.
Anderson would run the football 48 yards for a score to end the game. Denver would go on to win 30-24. It proved to be a big win as it would help give Denver home field advantage throughout the AFC playoffs. These two teams would see each other again. But more on that later.
