PATRIOTS AMONG BEST AT BOUNCING BACK

The New England Patriots are among the NFL’s best teams at bouncing back. New England has not lost back-to-back games since December 2002, and their streak of 52 consecutive games without consecutive defeats will be tested on Sunday when they visit the Cincinnati Bengals.

With a win, New England will tie the Denver Broncos (53) for the second-longest streak since 1970 without back-to-back losses.

The Denver Broncos accomplished the feat from October 24, 1976 through December 17, 1979. The San Francisco 49ers are the leader in the category, going 60 games from November 12, 1995 to October 17, 1999 without suffering back-to-back losses.
