Patriots vs Jets Notes

The Patriots have won 8 straight home playoff games. If they win on Sunday they will tie Buffalo for the second longest home playoff winning streak in history. The Green Bay Packers hold the longest home playoff winning streak with 13 straight home game victories between 1939 and 2001.

History is on the Patriots side. Only 5 out of 12 prior times has a road team with a regular season road victory over the host playoff team been able to win that second game. However, in 3 of those 5 victories - the visiting road team has gone on to play in the Super Bowl.
