The New England Patriots will host the Baltimore Ravens in the AFC Championship game for the second consecutive season on Sunday, Jan. 20. Kick-off in Foxborough will be 6:30 p.m.
The road to Super Bowl XLVII will once again go through Foxborough.

For the second straight season, the Patriots will host the Baltimore Ravens with a trip to the Super Bowl on the line. The Ravens upset the Denver Broncos, 38-35 in double overtime Saturday to advance to Championship Sunday for the second straight season. Sunday’s game will be a rematch of a Week 3 meeting between the Pats and Ravens, a match-up the Ravens won, 31-30 on a game-winning field goal by rookie kicker Justin Tucker.
The Patriots defeated the Ravens, 23-20 in last season’s AFC Championship game to advance to Super Bowl XLVI against the New York Giants in Indianapolis.

Noticed J. Forbes Kerry, current Senior Senator from MA sitting behind Kraft in the owner's booth.
Network showed Jawn in the first quarter, but you never saw who was behind Krafty after that.
Must have been a call from the bigwigs in NY, (aka F.O.B., Friends of Barry) to cut the shot.
Did he pay for his ticket,or pull his "do you know who I am" NZ yacht parked in RI gig ?
We will never know.
