10 day forecast (10 Day Weather Forecast for Foxboro - weather.com) calls for 34 degrees and mostly sunny. Of course, they're playing the night game that day but the point is that it is supposed to be a pretty nice day for January.
That said, Patriots 27, Denver 24. Closer and more stress-inducing than we want it to be. Pats get down 10-0 early, but score two TD to end the first half and start the second to go up 14-10. Denver kicks a FG to make it 14-13, but the Pats strike again in the 3rd to make it 21-13. They then trade FG to make it 24-17 before the Pats put another FG on the board with about 5 minutes left to make it 27-17. So we're happy until Tebow takes them down the field pretty quickly and scores a TD with just over 2 minutes left to make it 27-24. Now we're all very nervous b/c the Pats need to either recover an onside kick or get a first down. The Broncos decide to kick it away (b/c they still have 3 timeouts left) and NE gets nothing on the first two plays. With about 1:40 to go, facing 3rd and 9, Brady seals the game with a crossing pass to Welker, who beats Champ Bailey to the inside. First down, NE. They run out the clock from there, much to the relief of Patriots' fans everywhere.
I have a bad feeling, too. But maybe it's just because I am a Patriots fan and am wary of an other one and out. If I was a Denver fan or neutral, I don't think I would really give Broncos too much of a shot.
