A recap of the 2009 Patriots regular season road games: (they were 8-0 at home and 1-6 on the road - the game against Tampa was in London)
Road game #1: Led the Jets by 6 points at halftime. Didn't score a single point in the second half. Lost
Road game #2: Led the Broncos 17-7 at halftime. Didn't score a single point in the second half. Lost
Road game #3: Jumped out to a quick 21-0 lead against hapless Tampa in London and cruised.
Road game #4: Blew a 31-14 lead in the 4th quarter against the Colts. Monumental collapse down the stretch.
Road game #5: Led the Saints by a score of 7-3 at the end of the first quarter. They were outscored 35-10 in the final 3 quarters.
Road game #6: Jumped out to a quick 14-0 lead against the Dolphins. Blew the game in the second half. Another road L.
Road game #7: Jumped out to a quick 14-3 lead against the Bills and won despite being outscored in the second half.
Road game #8: Was leading Houston 27-13 in the 4th quarter - blew a huge lead in deep stretch by giving up 3 late touchdowns and lost the game.
2010:
Road game #1: Absolutely owned the first quarter against the Jets - blew a halftime lead and did not score a single second half point.
There's kind of a pattern here.....
