Both Sides Story: 2013 AFC Championship Game
Here at Stat Box Stories, we traditionally play as the underdog (or as a favorite team) when we put together articles using sports video games. For this weekend’s NFL Conference Championship Games, the decision was made to introduce a new type of article: Both Sides Story. With the games of such importance this weekend, instead of playing the game once, each game was played twice: once as each team involved in the match-up. Both playthroughs had full stats recorded, along with screenshot and video highlights; read on to find out how the Both Sides Story played out for the Baltimore Ravens and New England Patriots in the 2013 AFC Championship Game!
