The 1963 Boston Patriots season was the third season for the team in the American Football League. During their first season at Fenway Park, (switching from Nickerson Field), the Patriots stood around the .500 mark all season, as they were able to clinch a spot in the playoffs, with a victory on their final game. A loss of 35–3 with the Kansas City Chiefs created a divisional playoffs with the Buffalo Bills. With a win over the Bills of 26–8, the Patriots moved on to the championship series to the San Diego Chargers, who defeated the Patriots, ending their season by winning 51–10.

Famous quotes containing the words boston, patriots and/or season:
“Let those talk of poverty and hard times who will in the towns and cities; cannot the emigrant who can pay his fare to New York or Boston pay five dollars more to get here ... and be as rich as he pleases, where land virtually costs nothing, and houses only the labor of building, and he may begin life as Adam did? If he will still remember the distinction of poor and rich, let him bespeak him a narrower house forthwith.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“The great end of all human industry is the attainment of happiness. For this were arts invented, sciences cultivated, laws ordained, and societies modelled, by the most profound wisdom of patriots and legislators. Even the lonely savage, who lies exposed to the inclemency of the elements and the fury of wild beasts, forgets not, for a moment, this grand object of his being.”
—David Hume (1711–1776)
“How many things by season seasoned are
To their right praise and true perfection!”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
