To be precise it was less than the 1st quarter of the 1st game of the season.

I voted "probably, but not a sure thing."

I will say though that if the Pats beat the Steelers and their record by that point is still undefeated, then the Perfect Season looks seriously real.

just to bring some math into this thread.

we would have to win 9 more games. of the 6 remaining regular season games, 4 figure to be gigantic pointspreads:

Philly
NYJ
Miami
Baltimore

lets say the Pats have a 95% chance to win each of this.

the other 2 games are against the NYG and the Steelers, which will be slightly harder. lets say we have a 90% to win these 2 games.

then we have 3 playoffs games.

lets say its home vs steelers, home vs Colts (with Marvin, Ugoh, etc) and then neutral field vs Dallas or Green Bay.

call those 3 games

90%
75%
90%


multiply those all out, and you get a 40% chance at 9-0. I don't see anyway at all we are a coin-flip to go 9-0. we are a smallish underdog. the majority of people here answering "probably" either are hopeless homers or need a math lesson

The odds are with the Patriots according to Las Vegas

At the beginning of the season you could bet $100 to win $270 if the Pats had a perfect season. Typical odds fo the best teams in football with the odds against them.

Now you need to bet $160 to win $100 if the Pats have an undefeated season... meaning the odds are with the Patriots.
