During Sunday's AFC Championship game between the New England Patriots and Denver Broncos the Microsoft tablets used to view game film on the sidelines stopped working.

The malfunction only affected the visiting Patriots tablets, however.

After years of accusations over headsets mysteriously not working at Gillette Stadium during key moments in games, most will find it hard to feel bad for the Patriots.

Microsoft has spent a fortune trying to market its tablet as "not an iPad," though all seems to have come undone with its product crashing during a high-profile event once again.
