Patriots running back LeGarrette Blount 29 dives into the end zone for a touchdown during the second quarter Andrew Weber USA TODAY Sports

The two teams exchanged three-and-outs on the next two drives but the Patriots were right back it on the ensuing possession. Tom Brady completed a big 27-yard pass to Julian Edelman en route a 14-play, 75-yard drive that took nearly seven minutes off the board. All Brady had to do was hand the ball off to LeGarrette Blount from the two and the big back ran in his third touchdown of the first half. Pats 21, Colts 7.
