Blocked Punt Ties Game At Halftime

Both the Eagles and Patriots were held scoreless in the first quarter, but it only took one play for New England to score in the second frame. On 2nd-and-goal from the Eagles’ 4-yard line, Tom Brady found James White in the end zone to put the Patriots on top. A few minutes later, the Patriots doubled their lead with a well-placed ball from Brady to former-Eagle Danny Amendola in the end zone. But the Eagles’ offense answered with a touchdown of their own and then came up with a huge special teams touchdown just before halftime to knot the score up at 14-14 at the midway point.
