The New England Patriots set a Super Bowl record by coming back from a 28-3 deficit to beat the Atlanta Falcons 34-28. Prior to Super Bowl LI, no team had ever come back from more than a 10-point deficit to win, so it's safe to say that the Patriots' comeback was the best in Super Bowl history, by far.
Falling behind in the Super Bowl is not a death sentence—17 teams have won despite not scoring first, and 27 of 51 Super Bowl champions trailed at some point during the game. Tom Brady has trailed at some point in each of his five Super Bowl victories.
