On Saturday night in Jacksonville, the Jaguars overcame a 27-0 first-half deficit to win 31-30 on a field goal with seconds remaining, the fifth-largest comeback in NFL history.
In the past month, two of the top five comebacks in NFL history have occurred: The largest comeback in NFL history occurred on December 17, when the Colts led the Vikings 33-0 at the half before the Vikings came back to win 39-36 in overtime.
The largest comeback in NFL history before the Vikings-Colts game was a 32-point victory over the Bills in OT on January 3, 1993, after the Houston Oilers had taken an early 35-3 lead.
There have also been two 28-point comebacks in the NFL. On January 4, 2014, the Colts were down 38-10 to the Chiefs in a playoff game, but they rallied to win 45-44. Additionally, on December 7, 1980, Joe Montana and the 49ers came back to defeat the Saints 38-35 despite Archie Manning and the Saints having a 35-7 halftime advantage.
The Jaguars' comeback now ranks among the greatest comebacks in NFL history, with those previous games.
