Pats' Past: The Patriots defeat the Titans in the coldest home game in franchise history

37 years after the famous “Ice Bowl”, the 1967 NFL championship game between the Green Bay Packers and Dallas Cowboys, the New England Patriots hosted their own version of it. The Patriots' January 2004 game against the Tennessee Titans did not receive a fancy name or a NFL Network special but it is still a memorable contest in the annals of Foxboro's Gillette Stadium.

After all, the divisional round contest versus Tennessee is the coldest home game in Patriots history. When the game was kicked off at 8:15 p.m., the thermometer was in the single-digits, reading a mere four degrees.
