Since the NFL-AFL merger, there have been 80 games in which one team had a 21-point lead after the first quarter.
The Patriots are the FIRST team in NFL history to trail by 21+ points after one quarter and win the game by double digits.
That's pretty crazy. But what's even crazier is they won by 28 points! Double digits can be as low as 11. But 28! I don't think that will ever, ever happen again.

Actually I think it could be as low as 10.
Nope... follow along.
Either zero is a digit or not a digit. (only two possiblities)
If zero is a digit, then 01 is double digits. And the lowest double digit number is 1.
But if you contend that zero is not a digit then 10 can't be double digits either and the lowest double digit number is 11.
Therefore 10 is NOT the lowest double digit number, either way.
Zero is a digit, but scientists do not count initial zeros as digits (except zero itself). The smallest double-digit number is 10.
I know that. But you have to admit that is a novel way to prove that 10 is not the lowest 2 digit number.
I'm bored. What can you do with octal and hex?
Pet peeve: sports announcers who say "the score is now in single digits"...
Great stats. I feel like it's almost flown under the radar that the Pats SCORED 49 STRAIGHT POINTS in that game. Just unreal.

id be interested to know of those 80 teams down 21+ in the 1st..how many came back to win....not just by double digits
By yards, the Pats had the second best #1 receiver (Welker behind CJ), best #2 (Gronk), best #3 (Hernandez), and best #4 (Branch).
