ATLANTA (AP) — Tom Brady has moved on to win another title at Tampa Bay. Only a handful of Atlanta players remain from that fateful night in Houston.

The teams meet Thursday night at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. It will be exactly 1,747 days since the Brady-led Patriots rallied from a 28-3 deficit to beat the Falcons 34-28 in overtime at the 51st Super Bowl. Atlanta QB Matt Ryan says there’s nothing he can do about that game now.
