When the Falcons were up 28-3, fans of the team were probably already celebrating the franchise's first Super Bowl in history.
The Patriots had a second half low win probability of 0.4% percent, as per FiveThirtyEight.com. You don't have to be a math major to know those aren't good odds.
Tom Brady doesn't care for odds, though. In fact, he eats odds and probabilities and such for breakfast, and he also eats Falcons, too, as evidenced by the incredible second half comeback to win the Super Bowl.
The comeback was the greatest statistical one in terms of probability in Super Bowl history, and the internet certainly agreed.
That being said, for those that didn't watch the game, you just have to look at the insane probability chart throughout the Super Bowl to see just how much of an emotional roller coaster it truly was.
All that matters is the win probability once the final whistle blows, and fortunately for New England it was 100%.
