Is a touchdown play considered a first down?

In the NFL, if the offense scores a touchdown, the team
is credited with a first down. Check any NFL game's
play-by-play on nfl.com and count all of the first downs. Now,
compare them to the total first downs credited in the box score. If
touchdowns were scored by the offense, they must be added to make
the totals come out even.
