After a 2-2 start to the 2017 season, Tom Brady and the New England Patriots went on a roll as they reeled off 11 wins in their remaining 12 games to secure the top seed in the AFC. The Pats would knock off the Tennessee Titans in the Divisional round and then defeated the Jacksonville Jaguars to advance to Super Bowl LII against the Philadelphia Eagles. Quarterback Tom Brady threw for 4,577 yards and 32 touchdowns and tight end Rob Gronkowski caught 69 passes for 1,084 yards and 8 touchdowns to lead New England back to the Super Bowl in which they lost to the Eagles 41-33.
