New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady has revealed that he is pleased with the way the team have been practising ahead of the AFC championship game against the Denver Broncos.
The Patriots fell one game short of the Super Bowl last season, losing to the Baltimore Ravens, but Brady is confident that they can reach the season-ender this time around.
"Well, we've been [training] for a while now," he told the club's official website. "There's days where I've missed days of practice and you just deal with them. I've played a lot of football over the whole season and I got back out there today and it felt good.
"It was good to be out there. We were moving around good and team's practicing good so that's the biggest positive for us. We need to practice good. We need to go out and play good, that's going to be the most important thing.
"They're going to challenge us in a lot of ways. They challenged us last time we played them here. Going on the road to a great environment like this where the crowd is really going to be into it, it's going to be an exciting challenge for us. I'm excited."
The Broncos game takes place on Sunday night.
