The play, which occurred early in the fourth quarter, is questionable; Clowney dragged Brady to the turf well after he had thrown the ball out of bounds. Clowney was not called for a penalty, however.

The Patriots won the game 34-16 and advanced to the AFC championship game against the Steelers. The teams will face off Sunday at 6:40 p.m. in Foxborough, Mass.
