The New England Patriots are once again starting their Super Bowl quest at Gillette Stadium, but they will need an extra victory to reach the championship clash this season.
Bill Belichick's side is playing in its first wild-card clash since the 2009-10 campaign, when it dropped out of the playoffs without a victory. New England is facing the Tennessee Titans in the postseason for the second time in three years and is looking for a second straight double-digit playoff triumph over the AFC South side.
The Titans earned a wild-card berth by closing with a 5-2 mark behind quarterback Ryan Tannehill and running back Derrick Henry, but production may be hard to come by versus the Patriots defense.
