The New England Patriots haven’t stopped collecting awards and accolades for their incredible comeback win over the Atlanta Falcons in Super Bowl LI.
The Patriots won the award for “Best Game” on Wednesday night at the 2017 ESPYs.

Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman made a quick speech on behalf of his teammates, and even found a way to make a funny joke at the expense of former rival Peyton Manning, who’s hosting this year’s ESPYs.
Edelman accepting the ESPY: "Never thought I'd say this but Peyton Manning is kinda killing.
We are indoors though."

The Patriots probably won’t be placing this ESPY next to their latest Vince Lombardi Trophy, but it’s still a cool award to add to the team’s growing collection.
