The call of first down has been upheld first and goal.

The Broncos defense hold to a 24-yard FG. The Patriots have their first lead at 10-7 with 5:28 left in the 3rd quarter.  

There you go. Exactly what I said earlier. They gained nothing by risking it on 4th down. Truly lucky to get the 3 points because Maye did not get that 1st down on 4th.

To me it feels like the game totally turned after the Broncos not taking the FG to go up 10-0 and turning it over on downs.

And look at the conditions now. A terrible decision by Payton.

I don't like how the NFL is overlaying the lines and numbers on the broadcast.  With white uniforms, snow, and those overlays, the Pats sorta look like predators with invisibility cloaks on TV.  I want to experience the actual game, not a cartoon version of it. 

As you boys said earlier and are now reiterating, take the points when you can. Denver should know better than NE about the weather creeping in

The weather in this game has turned about as ugly as this game has been. If the Broncos can't score here with this field position they don't deserve to win.

These teams can't make FGs, lol!  Love it!

I think I would have went for this especially in these conditions and ran Stidham again. Instead of kicking a 46 yard FG.

And I assume the coaches/teams knew the weather forecast and with that knowledge I can't believe Denver didn't kick a FG in the first half when they had an easy one.

Well it looks like it was tipped no way to see if live that it was tipped.

In these conditions I believe I would have called a timeout and saved :40 seconds since you are going to have to run all of the time.

Looks like they did call one but lost about :25 seconds before they called it.

Denver has the ball with a chance to tie or take the lead with 3:04 to play. If they had took the FG in the first quarter they would be going for the win.
