Here we have a game used football from Tom Brady's first ever AFC Championship appearance. He went on to win 8 of his next 12 AFC Championship appearances, a staggering number that proves the success of the Patriots great. In its first season of operations, Heinz Field also joined the rich playoff history when the Pittsburgh Steelers advanced to the this contest on January 27, 2002. Originating from a field worker, the ball shows nice use and has a color-coded mark on the lacing along with Dymo tape label indicating the date, game and score. After clinching the Central Division title with a 11-5 record, the Patriots started their playoff run and it ended with a Super Bowl victory against the St. Louis Rams.
