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.
