BRONCOS 7, PATRIOTS 0
It wasn't in the forecast for tight end Owen Daniels to score before Rob Gronkowski in the AFC championship game. But there was Daniels, a part-time meteorologist, wide open for a 21-yard TD catch to give the Broncos a 7-0 lead over the Patriots midway through the first quarter.
Peyton Manning took advantage of a blown assignment by the Patriots to find Daniels, who waltzed into the end zone.
Manning had a nifty move earlier in the drive, when he escaped outside on a bootleg play.
