The New England Patriots pulled off the greatest comeback in Super Bowl history with a stunning overtime victory over the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday that saw Tom Brady cement his status as the game's all-time greatest quarterback.
For Brady, the 34-28 win earned him Super Bowl MVP honors for an unprecedented fourth time, a quarterback-record fifth NFL title and also a bit of sweet revenge after serving a four-game ban to start the season for his role in the ‘Deflategate’ saga.
"Thank you to all our fans. Everyone back in Boston, New England, we love you. You've been with us all year," an emotional Brady said as he raised the Vince Lombardi Trophy. "We're bringing this sucker home."
The Patriots, who seemed to have nothing go their way all night and trailed 28-3 in the third quarter, came alive with a 19-point burst in the fourth, including a pair of two-point conversions, to force the first overtime in Super Bowl history.
Here are some of the memorable images from the Patriots’ win:
