Ben Volin and the official Patriots Twitter account both tweeted out (both below) that yesterday's onside kick was the first in team history that led to a game winning score.

#Patriots say that today was the first time in team history that they recovered an onside kick and went on to score the game-winning points

Random fact of the day: Today is the 1st time the #Patriots have recovered an onside kick resulting in game-winning points

Yesterday's onside kick was the play of the game. Well, that and the sketchy PI call late, but with 30 seconds left and the ball at the 30 yard line, they probably would have driven down and scored anyway. BUT the winning score was courtesy of the onside kick, and they picked a great time to get the first game-winning score off an onside kick.
