Jason Lisk of the Big Lead unearthed this nugget earlier this week: The Packers haven’t trailed by more than 7 points at any point this season.

In a post for Pro-Football-Reference.com, Chase Stuart called it the statistic of the year. He looked at the six losses:

* In Chicago, the Packers got up 7-0 and 10-7, trailed 14-10, took a 17-14 lead, and lost 20-17. * In week five in Washington, the Packers led for most of the game before the Redskins scored 10 fourth quarter points to force overtime. Washington won 16-13. Yes, Washington beat this team. * The following week, the Packers never trailed against Miami until an Anthony Fasano touchdown reception gave Miami a 20-13 lead. Aaron Rodgers rushed for the tying score, but Miami won in overtime, 23-20. * In week twelve, the Packers lost another close one in Atlanta. The teams exchanged scores all game, alternating with a Falcons field goal, Packers field goal, Falcons touchdown, Packers touchdowns, Falcons touchdown, Packers touchdown, Falcons field goal. * In Detroit, playing the majority of the game without Aaron Rodgers, the Packers lost 7-3. * The next week, a loss in New England without Rodgers looked disastrous in the standings but respectable on the field. The Packers got up 3-0 and then 10-7 and 17-7. Two Patriots touchdowns made it 21-17, but Green Bay responded with another touchdown. The Patriots scored last, winning 31-27. The Packers never trailed by more than a touchdown in any of their 13 victories either. So how rare is it for a team to go an entire season without trailing by more than 7 points?

Read the rest of Chase’s post for the answer. He said in an-email that the Packers “have to be in the running for the greatest 10-6 team ever.”
