DENVER -- In a race to stay in the chase for an AFC Wild Card spot, the Denver Broncos lost the most consistent player in their offense, lost a game in the final seconds and most likely lost their chance at the postseason in one exceedingly disappointing Christmas Eve.

Wide receiver Courtland Sutton left Sunday night's game against the New England Patriots in the first quarter with a concussion and the rest of the evening simply didn't get any better.

Patriots rookie kicker Chad Ryland powered a 56-yard field through the frigid night air with two seconds remaining and New England left with a 26-23 win in Empower Field at Mile High.
