VIDEO: Broncos, Patriots Skirmish At End Of 2012 NFL Playoff Game

The Denver Broncos and the New England Patriots broke out into a skirmish toward the end of Saturday;s 2012 NFL Playoff game. Von Miller shouldered a Patriots player once the punt had reached far into Broncos territory and then Robert Ayers got into it when everyone got to the sideline. That led to a crowded skirmish on the sidelines.

Bill Belichick got into the middle of it in an attempt to end it. A yell of "Get your asses of of there!" could be heard. There was a pile on and some rolling around, and by the end of it Ryan McBean appeared to be the last person to get up from all of it.

And then right before that we saw Tom Brady punt the ball. We pretty much saw everything in this game:

That set the record for most touchdown passes in a single half, Barely three minutes into the second half, Brady has already tied the single-game postseason record with six touchdown passes. He found Aaron Hernandez for a 17-yard score and a 42-7 lead.

Hernandez and fellow tight end Rob Gronkowski have been shredding the Denver secondary all game long. On this play, Hernandez catches the ball and jukes to his right to break free and find his way into the end zone. The 42 points are also the most in Patriots franchise history and they aren't going to stop at this point.

While Brady is 18-of-25 for 246 yards, Tim Tebow is 3-of-10 for 28 yards. Willis McGahee has 68 yards rushing, but there isn't much going on for this team right now. They will receive the ball to start the second half.

VIDEO: Tom Brady Drops 4th TD Pass Intp Deion Branch's Hands

Tom Brady is amazing. That's all we can say anymore. Just look at his fourth touchdown pass of Satuday's New England Patriots game against the Denver Broncos. Throws don't get much better than this:

Brady drops back and almost immediately looks to his left, spotting a sprinting Deion Branch down the left sideline. Andre Goodman gets beaten badly on the play, which allowed Branch to catch the ball and walk into the end zone. The Patriots now lead, 28-7, with less than 90 seconds left in the game.

If the Broncos can score in the remaining time, they will have strong momentum when they return from halftime. They will receive the ball to start the second half.

Broncos Vs. Patriots Score: Rob Gronkowski Grabs 2nd TD Pass

The New England Patriots are dangerously close to blowing wide open this 2012 NFL Playoffs game against the Denver Broncos. Tom Brady just threw his third touchdown in the game and it's only halfway through the second quarter. He found Rob Gronkowski, who had his second touchdown of the game.

Gronkowski shows great body control and movement to get through what is arguably a weak secondary now that it is missing its two starting safeties. Gronkowski now has 19 touchdown receptions overall this season while Tom Brady's 33 touchdowns are third most in playoff history.

On the next drive, Tim Tebow threw a dangerous pass to the sidelines that almost wound up as an interception. Instead, it fell incomplete and the Broncos punted a few plays later. The Patriots lead, 21-7.

Broncos Vs. Patriots Score: Willis McGahee Scores TD After Tom Brady INT

The Denver Broncos are on the score board in the second quarter. After a 12-yard catch and run by Demaryius Thomas on third down gave the Broncos a first down at the end of the first quarter, the teams needed to change sides with the end of the quarter. Willis McGahee then made it into the end zone on the first play of the second quarter. There were some extracurricular activities at the end of the play.

This is the play that made the score possible. Tom Brady must've been temporarily blind when he threw this interception. That will probably be the easiest pick of Quinton Carter's career. He was sitting back in center field and Brady just threw it right at him. Carter received a big hit to end that run, but he was already banged up earlier in the game. Obviously, he returned and was able to make that play. Carter intercepted

VIDEOS: Tim Tebow's Fumble Leads To Amazing Rob Gronkowski TD Catch

Tim Tebow's issues holding onto the ball reared its head early on in Saturday's Denver Broncos game against the New England Patriots. After the Tom Brady touchdown pass, Tebow had a 14-yard run to pick up a first down, but then a couple of plays later he came under pressure, was sacked and fumbled the ball:

Right tackle Orlando Franklin is supposed to pass block against Rob Ninkovich here, but Franklin becomes unbalanced and allows Ninkovich to bypass him. Once there, Ninkovich hits Tebow from behind and forces the ball to the ground.

The Patriots then took advantage of that turnover to score another touchdown. Rob Gronkowski made an amazing floating touchdown grab for the 14-0 lead. The play was reviewed since it appeared he may not have had complete control of the ball as he came down, but the referee upheld the call.

Broncos Vs. Patriots Score: New England Races For 7-0 Lead

The Denver Broncos find themselves down just two minutes into the game against the New England Patriots, 7-0. Wes Welker, he of a questionable knee, caught a seven-yard touchdown pass for the early lead.

Tom Brady started the drive with a 17-yard pass to Rob Gronkowski and then followed that up with a handoff to tight end Aaron Hernandez, who picked up 43 yards. Brady then threw a touchdown pass in his 18th straight playoff game, second only to Brett Favre's 20. It's also his 31 postseason touchdown, tied for fourth all-time with Kurt Warner.

The Broncos don't want to get down too early as that is a recipe for disaster, disrupting the team's game plan to stick with the ball on the ground.
