2 road teams snapping 6-game skids against Jaguars an NFL first

The Jaguars made history with their loss to Atlanta.

Never since the 16-game schedule was introduced in 1978 did one home team help an opponent break a six-game losing streak twice in one season.

Until Sunday.

All those seasons. All those games. All those bad teams.

The criteria: A team had to lose at least six games and broken their streak in the same season (no carry-overs allowed).

The data: We found 158 examples of a team that had lost at least six straight games before getting a win. Fifty-two of those snaps broke their skid on the road.
