Tom Brady beat Andrew Luck and the Patriots quarterback is going to his sixth Super Bowl. He’s lost his last two to the Giants, who won’t be there waiting for him this time.

But the Patriots did lose the Super Bowl to the Giants in Glendale in 2007, finishing the season 18-1.

The Patriots have eliminated the Colts in the playoffs the past two seasons.

New England (14-4) started with a 14-point lead in the first half, then broke it open in a driving rain with three third-quarter touchdowns and another to start the fourth.

That made it the second-most lopsided game in AFC championship history.
