I'm honestly surprised that record has stood for a decade.

Th 350 yards plus of offense per game speaks to the consistency of the Pats offense. I think Pats fans are just spoiled by 2007 and just EXPECT gaudy numbers. But the rest of the NFL teams fans are not so lucky. Pats have been a high powered offense since 2007 but it looks like the consistency in yardage production really kicked in from the 2011-2012 period when the double tight end offense took the league by storm.
Add in the added dimension and consistency of a run game this year, and I think it's possible to run the streak to 20+ games. And that will be a record that is hard to break even in an increasingly offensive-driven league. When you think of all the high powered offenses out there, the Pats outproduced on a consistent basis offensive teams like the Saints, Packers, etc. No small feat.
