Brady is 2-7 all-time in Denver

Patriots quarterback Tom Brady has had success in just about every building that he has played in throughout his career, except Denver, where he is 2-7 all-time and has not won there since the 2011 season.

For a game-by-game look at Brady’s struggles in Denver, see the slideshow below.

“I think they've had really good teams. More so than where you play, it's how you play. We just need to play better than the way we've been playing out there. It's a great place to play. They've got great fans. It's definitely one of the louder places so our communication is going to be really important,” said Brady in his press conference on Wednesday.

The Patriots will visit Denver on Sunday to face the Broncos for the first time since last season’s AFC Championship game in which New England lost 20-18.

“To watch that game again - I watched it a bunch this offseason - but to watch it again, you're just trying to do things better than the way we've done them. If you want a different outcome then you've got to do things differently and we've got to play better,” said Brady.

Kickoff is set for 4:25 p.m. on Sunday
