The days of the New England Patriots<\/strong><\/a> playing on “Championship Sunday” may be over for at least the time being, but after two recent decades of unprecedented success, there are always good memories to look back on.<\/p>\n

Such an instance occurred on Thursday when Julian Edelman shared a “Throwback Thursday” posting on Instagram that featured a few photos from the 2018 AFC Championship between the Patriots and Kansas City Chiefs.<\/p>\n

In an accompanying caption, Edelman wrote “Win and Get In Season.”<\/p>\n

That game, of course, wound up being an all-time playoff win during the last hurrah of the dynasty, and a rather unexpected one over the favored Chiefs led by first-year quarterback and MVP Patrick Mahomes. Edelman himself had a big impact on that game, especially in overtime when he caught two of the three <\/a>third and long conversions to help set up the winning touchdown from Rex Burkhead.<\/p>\n

Edelman finished the contest with seven receptions for 97 yards in the 37-31 victory and would earn the Super Bowl MVP award just two weeks later.<\/p>\n
