October 13, 2013, is a day that New England sports fans will forever remember as “Comeback Day”.<\/p>\n
Nine years ago today it all began when the 4-1 Patriots were trailing against the 5-0 New Orleans Saints 27-23.<\/p>\n
At the 2:16 mark of the fourth quarter, it appeared quarterback Tom Brady threw a game-sealing interception, but his defense managed to hold the Saints to a 3-and-out thanks to some questionable play calling.<\/p>\n
With 1:13 remaining in the game, Brady and the offense got the football back at their own 30-yard line, what resulted was the future hall-of-fame quarterback creating his 39th career game-winning drive and leaving the visiting Saints stunned.<\/p>\n
Brady moved his team 70 yards down the field, even converting a big fourth down, and finished off the drive by finding wide receiver Kenbrell Thompkins in the back of the end-zone for a buzzer-beater touchdown<\/a> with five seconds remaining.<\/p>\n The Boston Sports Info Twitter account shared the memorable finish below.<\/p>\n October 13, 2013<\/p>\n Tom Brady <\/p>\n Throws a 17-yard TD pass to rookie Kenbrell Thompkins with just 0:05 left in the game as the Patriots come from behind and beat the Saints (30-27)<\/p>\n Crowd goes nuts<\/p>\n Now we just need the Sox to beat the Tigers later on tonightpic.twitter.com\/UNveP8RrIm<\/a><\/p>\n — Boston Sports Info (@bostonsportsinf) October 13, 2022<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
