Jan. 18, 2004 - New England won its fourth AFC Championship, advancing to Super Bowl XXXVIII by defeating the Indianapolis Colts 24-14 in the snow at Gillette Stadium. Ty Law's three interceptions in the game gave him a franchise record four career playoff interceptions.

Jan. 16, 2005 - The Patriots advanced to their fifth AFC Championship game by defeating the Indianapolis Colts 20-3 at a snowy Gillette Stadium. New England's defense held the Colts' record-setting offense, led by NFL MVP Peyton Manning, to a season-low three points.
