Sixteen months after being embarrassed at the hands of Kansas City, the New England Patriots relied on their pass-happy offense to gain revenge on the visiting Chiefs Saturday night. Other than perhaps quarterback Tom Brady, no one was more to thank for the postseason W than tight end Rob Gronkowski, whose two touchdowns in the AFC divisional game swung him up to the top of the record books.

After first scoring in the contest's opening moments ...

… he caught and skipped his way to the end zone with a little over eight minutes left in the third quarter, further extending his team’s lead.

Gronk has now tallied eight postseason TDs in his six-year career -- the most of any tight end in league history.

Congrats, Gronk. The Patriot deserves to celebrate -- and he began to do just that in the middle of the contest, with these dance moves.
