The Patriots are in the playoffs, and its the fifth straight year. That, along with the Packers, is the longest active streak of playoff runs, as confirmed by Field Yates.

The Packers and Patriots are headed to the playoffs for the 5th straight season, the longest active streaks in the NFL.

Things haven't gone to great for the Patriots in the past playoff runs, but hopefully this new streak will be followed by another Super Bowl win! With the first round bye, it is a fair chance for the Pats.
