Coldest AFC championship game ever at Foxboro

FOXBORO, Mass. (AP) - The Patriots and Chargers began their game Sunday in windy conditions with a temperature of 23 degrees, the lowest of the three AFC championship games played in Foxboro.

The previous low there for a title game was 27 degrees on Jan. 12, 1997 when New England beat Jacksonville 20-6 to advance to the Super Bowl where it lost to Green Bay 35-21 in New Orleans.

The lowest temperature for any Patriots game at Foxboro was 4 degrees in a 17-14 win over Tennessee on Jan. 10, 2004 in the first round of the playoffs.

The wind at game time Sunday was blowing at 17 mph from the northwest. The wind chill was 9. San Diego won the opening coin toss and had the wind at its back in the first quarter.
