Early in the second quarter of Sunday’s AFC Championship Game, the New England Patriots coaching staff experienced issues with their Microsoft Surface tablets.

According to Evan Washburn of CBS, the Patriots were unable to use their tablets for an entire drive. While some were functioning properly shortly after, they were still being affected by the problem.

Tracy Wolfson added that the Broncos were not required to stop using their tablets while the issue persisted on the Patriots sideline.


Update (4:24 p.m. ET): Washburn reported that the Patriots’ tablets are back up and running, with just over five minutes to go before halftime.
