Sunday marked the end of a record in professional football that has stood since 1933.
The record in question is the longest winning streak, which the New England Patriots broke with their 19th straight win, 24-10 over the winless Miami Dolphins. New England, which can match its franchise best 5-0 start on Sunday, shared the 18-game record with Chicago in 1933-34 and again in 1941-42; Miami in 1972-73; San Francisco in 1989-90; and Denver in 1997-98, according to Fox Sports.
This record may not have gotten the press that some records get, i.e. the1998 home run hitting contest between Sammy Sosa and Mark McGwire, but it certainly deserves some attention.
Even though I'm not traditionally a Pats fan, anyone want to break out the chowda and head to Foxborough this Sunday to see more history made when the Seahawks will probably get their lunch handed to them?
