"The Panthers, Dolphins, Cowboys and Ravens are examples of teams that put most of their eggs in the run basket. Their personnel is geared for protecting a lead more than overcoming one, and the emphasis of their preparation is on ball control. Teams with those kinds of offenses find it more difficult to play from behind than teams such as the Chiefs, Colts or Patriots, whose offenses are more geared to the pass."
In both losses to the Pats, The Pats scored first. Both games it was 3-0.
"When a team scored twice before the opponent scored its first points, even if it was two field goals, the team with the points won an incredible 84 percent of the time."
