Today will mark the first time that the Patriots will face the Colts, following the Deflategate investigation. It started when the Indianapolis team expressed concerns in regards pressure of the footballs used for last year’s AFC Championship Game.

The investigation lasted all summer leading up to the 2015 NFL season and resulted in a four game suspension for starting quarterback, Tom Brady.
This game is definitely going to be one to watch, but Tom Brady’s dad has got some far-fetched expectations for his son’s performance.
“I’d like to see them put 60 points on the board, and love to see Tom throw for 500 yards and eight touchdowns.”
Brady Sr. noted that those were only dreams of his but that he is praying for a win today.
“As long as they have one point more than the Colts, I’m fine,”
he said.
The New England refrained from directly answering any questions about today’s match, but he did say that he expects it to be exciting.
“I’m always pretty motivated. It’ll be an exciting game. I know they’ve got a good team. They’ve won three straight. It’s going to take a great effort to beat them.”
