Default Belichick in playoffs when favored v. when underdog

Has Belichick ever lost a playoff game as a HC in which his team was favored? How often has he won when an underdog.

I don't know what the actual spreads were in these games. My guesses are below, please correct if wrong. If I'm right about my guesses, he would be 10-0 as a favorite and 4-3 as an underdog. Maybe we were the favorites in the Denver game, although I would tend to doubt it, which would make it 10-1 and 3-3.

2007
v. Jags (favorite) W

2006
v. Jets (favorite) W
v. Chargers (underdog?) W
v. Colts (underdog) L

2005
v. Jags (favorite) W
v. Broncos (slight underdog?) L

2004
v. Colts (favorite?) W
v. Steelers (underdog) W
v. Eagles (favorite) W

2003
v. Titans (favorite) W
v. Colts (??? favorite I'll guess) W
v. Panthers (favorite) W

2001
v. Oakland (probably small favorite) W
v. Steelers (underdog) W
v. Rams (underdog) W

1994
v. Patriots (?? probably favorite) W
v. Steelers (probably underdog) L

Really? We were favored in Pittsburgh vs. the 16-1 Steelers?

I doubt that, pretty sure I remember everyone saying we were going to get smoked that game, even though we had a 14-2 reg. season.

Yes i remember the Steelers were angry about being underdogs at home. It had mostly to do with them looking awful against the Jets and the Pats were very impressive against the Colt.

I think you should look up what Belichick's record this season.

We were favored against Pitt, however, by gametime vs Indy that same year we were a 1pt dog, we opned as a 2pt fav and everyone bet them because of the injuries in our secondary and because they effortlessly scored 49 vs denver the week before.....

I'm pretty sure we've been favored in 17 games this season.

Perhaps someone can go back and check the stats to see how that's worked out for us so far.

I'm fine on continuing that trend as I tend to be a bit superstitous about such things.
