It gave New England its third straight trip to the Super Bowl, and Brady's last of nine as a member of the Patriots.

(AP Photo/Roger Steinman)FRISCO, TX – Jason Garrett was still coach of the Dallas Cowboys on Friday, almost a week after what figured to be a make-or-break season ended without a trip to the playoffs in the final year of his contract.
