Time is winding down for the New England Patriots’ hopes of making it back to the Super Bowl as the Denver Broncos currently hold a huge lead in the fourth quarter at 23-3.

But, you never count out Tom Brady nor anyone out on this New England team, as he and wide receiver Julian Edelman displayed earlier on.

With the team down by 20 points, Brady and the offense need something and they need something quick. So, Brady went right to the man in Edelman that has become his new go-to guy, who was able to make a play with the ball and get the first down and then some.

This is about the time where Brady traditionally takes over, and today seems to be no different. Even though he and the team are down big, they were in a similar position earlier this season against this same Denver team, and they came out of that one with a win.
