DENVER — The Denver Broncos defeated the New England Patriots 20-18 in the AFC Championship game on Sunday in front of a packed home crowd at Sports Authority Field. <br /> <br />The Broncos were clear underdogs going into the the much-hyped matchup between quarterbacks Peyton Manning and Tom Brady. <br /> <br />Manning surprised everyone by tossing two huge touchdowns to tight end Owen Daniels in the first half. <br /> <br />The Broncos defense did the rest with Von Miller and DeMarcus Ware leading the way. Tom Brady was sacked four times and hit 23 times. He also threw two interceptions. <br /> <br />New England tight end Rob Gronkowski had a good game but was battling with leg cramps throughout the day. <br /> <br />The Broncos will now head to San Francisco to face the Carolina Panthers in Super Bowl 50 on Feb. 7. <br /> <br />------------------------------------------------------------- <br /> <br />Welcome to TomoNews, where we animate the most entertaining news on the internets.
