The New England Patriots took advantage of some down time last week during a well-deserved playoff bye.

Some players hopped on a plane to Florida, others hung out together and watched the playoffs, and some just enjoyed the chance to soak up some family time -- like Patriots quarterback Tom Brady.

The Brady Bunch enjoyed some mild January weather by catching son Ben's outdoor hockey practice.

At least someone in Boston saw some interesting outdoor hockey this year.
