Drew Bledsoe and substitute Tom Brady were injured on the sidelines during a match against San Diego Chargers in Foxborough in October 2001
Unknown to the public, in his second year in the NFL, Brady replaced Drew Bledso when he was injured in September 2001. Against all odds, he had led the Patriots to the US Final before to get injured in that game. After neglecting ten points against the Pittsburgh Steelers, the New England Patriots won 24-17 after Bledso replaced Brady in the second quarter. The Patriots missed the playoffs in 2002, but then defeated the Indianapolis Colts, 24-14, and those same Steelers, 41-27, after the 2003 and 2004 seasons.

Tom Brady, in 2007
For the first time in his career, Brady lost to a conference final in January 2007 (2006 season). The Patriots took the lead 21-3, but Peyton Manning orchestrated one of the coolest comebacks in history to advance to his first Super Bowl. Brady and the Patriots defeated 38-34 by Colts, and won another American title the following year after defeating Philip Rivers and the San Diego Chargers, 21-12, in Foxboro. However, Brady threw three objections at this meeting.

In the American final against the Bronco, in Denver, January 19, 2014
After facing twice in the US Final when he was with the Colts, Brady played two more tournament matches at Manning when he played in Denver. The Broncos won their first two matches with ease, 26-16, but they needed all their energies to beat Brady in the second, with a 20-18 victory. So Manning won three of the four encounters between the two great quarter-finals in the conference final. Between their losses in Denver (2013 and 2015 seasons), the Patriots thrash the Colts, 45-7 (2014 season).
