"In a turnover-filled game that matched the sloppy, snowy-weather forecast, the New England Patriots leaned on their defense and some timely big plays on offense to record a 28-16 victory over the Houston Texans in an AFC divisional-round playoff game Sunday. The Patriots defense forced five turnovers, intercepting quarterback C.J. Stroud four times, and quarterback Drake Maye overcame three turnovers (two fumbles and one interception)"
"The Patriots will now hit the road to face the Denver Broncos on Sunday ( 3 p.m. ET, CBS) with a trip to the Super Bowl on the line, where they will face backup quarterback Jarrett Stidham as he steps in for the injured Bo Nix. New England will look to bring that attacking style of play to Denver, which has traditionally been a house of horrors for the franchise, especially in the postseason."
