There's something with people from Idaho making some major strides in the NFL. There's always one Idaho player that manages to stand out week after week. Whether they're from Idaho or they played college ball here in the state there's always something fun to look forward to with these guys in the NFL.

Christian Elliss, former University of Idaho linebacker, now plays for the New England Patriots. Last Sunday's game determined who would be going to the Super Bowl, The Patriots or The Broncos.

And The Patriots won.

Christian Elliss' brother is a linebacker who plays for the Denver Broncos and unfortunately that meant that the two Elliss brothers had to play each other for a spot in the Super Bowl. The Patriots ended up beating the Broncos so Christian Elliss' brother sadly did not make the Super Bowl this year.

A video of the two of them after the game went viral as it was obviously a very sad moment when his brother realized he would not be making it to the Super Bowl this year. This heartfelt moment has taken the internet by storm with many people feeling very bad that this happened.

Christian Elliss will be playing the Seattle Seahawks for his chance to win the NFL Superbowl coming up in just a couple of weeks. It's going to be a battle of Idaho for this championship title.

 

Who do you have winning the Super Bowl this year?
