Patriots roll into 5th AFC finals

FOXBOROUGH, Massachusetts – The Patriots’ late-season slump didn’t mean much when the playoffs came to New England. Kansas City’s 11-game winning streak mattered even less.

With Rob Gronkowski and Julian Edelman coming back from injuries to help Tom Brady return to his Super Bowl MVP form, the Patriots earned a spot in the AFC title game for the fifth year in a row, beating the Chiefs 27-20 on Saturday.

“It’s pretty special to get back to another AFC championship game,” said Brady.
