Default 10 Consecutive Playoff wins > Perfect Season ?

I think the case can be made that winning 10 consecutive playoff games is harder to do than win 16 regular season games. Especially in the salary cap era.

- The perfect season happened only 6 years after the 'modern' NFL began, before the salary cap.
- There have been a bunch of 15-1's. Only 2 9-in-a-row playoof teams.
- Teams can go to cap hell for short term dominance over a single year '98 vikings) - but being dominant in the playoffs over such a long time period is miraculous

Here's to making the case for 11.

It's the Patriots, not the Colts or the '72 Dolphins, so it's not as impressive

All I know is when we're beating records of Lombardi's Packers, Noll's Steelers, Walsh's 49ers, etc, we are moving past the greats of all time.

To me, this is the measure of a dynasty -- unbeaten in a string of superbowl campaigns. Truly dominent.
