Default Does the avg sports fan want 16-0 or 15-1?
Do you think more people in this country want to see the Patriots complete a perfect season or fail this Saturday?

I know I was rooting against the Colts doing it a few years ago when they were 13-0.

I used to think the former but now after reading this article I am begining to think the latter:

cant really say for sure. i think the country is pretty split, half hate and half like. rooting against the colts is only natural as a pats fan. i wish they never won a single game

From what I've been hearing, the majority of the country wants us to lose.

I say 19-0. That is the best we can do.

I think most of the sports fans are torn. The majority do not like the Patriots but the probably also want to see something like this happen in their lifetime and just as importantly finally shut up the '72 Dolphins.

18-1 (lose last game on regular season and win the SB) is better than


16-0 ( win all regular season games and lose in the PlayOffs)

I don't care what anyone else wants. I want 19-0. All that matters is winning the 3 games in the playoffs.

I also was definitely not rooting for Indianapolis to do it in 2005. Or Denver in 1998.
