The New England Patriots have played in many exciting games during the 2010s. As the decade ends, we look at their 10 best games from the last 10 years.

There has been no better team in the NFL than the New England Patriots this decade. Thanks to all of their unbelievable success, the Patriots have played a part in many playoff games and Super Bowls – as well as a solid haul of incredibly exciting regular season games.

Over the past couple weeks, I’ve put together a list of what are – in my opinion – the best games the Patriots have participated in during the past 10 years.

This list will be ranked mostly off of pure entertainment value. If I found a game entertaining and exciting, it will likely be on here… no matter if it were an important game or not.

With so many matchups to look at, it’s completely possible that our opinions will differ. But this is just a fun way to celebrate and commemorate how thrilling and entertaining the New England Patriots have been as a team for the past decade.

We’re all very fortunate to be fans of such a team!

In Part 1, we looked at Nos.10-7, along with some Honorable Mentions. In Part 2, I discussed Nos. 6-4. In this part, I’ll unveil the remainder of the list.

Without further ado, let’s start with No. 3.
