Even though anyone has the ability to edit pages on Wikipedia, the New England Patriots are distancing themselves from an amusing change about the AFC Championship Game.

There's not an official rule that the Patriots must play in the AFC title game, but there's no evidence to suggest the contest isn't for the right to play them.
