Patriots stop Titans’ run at playoffs
December 31, 2006
Bill Belichick told Vinny Testaverde to get loose. The 43-year-old quarterback wasn’t sure, so he asked the New England coach again. “He said, `Get loose.’ I assumed that was to go in and throw the football. I threw a couple passes before I went in,” Testaverde said. Testaverde capped the Patriots’ roll into the playoffs by throwing a touchdown for an NFL-record 20th season.
