AFC Championship Game: Patriots vs. Broncos discussion
The AFC Championship will get underway on Sunday afternoon in matchup featuring the No. 2 New England Patriots and No. 1 Denver Broncos.
The Broncos lead the all-time series between these teams, 27-23, and the away team has won the past four meetings. They last faced off back in 2023, when the Patriots won at Mile High Stadium, 26-23. Still, Denver leads their postseason series, 4-1, and the home team has won all five games. Most recently, the Broncos won the AFC Championship in 2016, at home, 20-18 - but Denver had Peyton Manning in that game, and this time, they're relying on backup QB Jarrett Stidham, who, hasn't thrown a pass in-game since 2023.
