Biggest comebacks in NFL history following Vikings’ win
MINNEAPOLIS (BVM) – It may not go down as the “Minneapolis Miracle,” but when the Minnesota Vikings overcame a 33-0 halftime deficit to defeat the Indianapolis Colts 39-36 in overtime on Saturday, they completed the largest comeback in NFL history. This was just one of multiple games from Week 15 of the regular season that saw double-digit comebacks as both the Cincinnati Bengals and Jacksonville Jaguars also won after trailing by 17 in both of their contests. This marked the first week in NFL history to have three such contests.
For the first time in the 103-year history of the @NFL, 3 teams (MIN, JAX, CIN) overcame 17+ point deficits to win in the same week.@NFLResearch

Given the historic nature of the Vikings’ win and the fact the league itself saw more large comebacks than ever before, now is a good time to take a look at the biggest comebacks in league history.
