FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — The New England Patriots can settle in now that they’re home from their snow-delayed trip.
They’ll be there as long as they’re in the AFC playoffs.
Shortly before 3 p.m. Monday, their plane landed in Providence after Sunday’s 34-3 win over the Buffalo Bills. About a half hour later they were back in Foxborough. The win clinched homefield advantage throughout the conference playoffs.
The storm that hit the Northeast left the Patriots stranded in western New York. They stayed overnight in Rochester because most Buffalo-area hotels were booked with the city hosting the World Junior Hockey Championships.
The Patriots end the regular season Sunday at home against the Miami Dolphins.
