Default Not what we are looking for. Horrorfying stat.

teams that scored 38 or more in the playoffs are 0-12 ats (1-11 su) against teams that scored 28 or less in their own playoffs game.
That would be 0-12 Against the spread. 1-11 Straight up.

Just sayin

I'm not sure I think '90.
Just a guess.
I do know one thing you are never as good or as bad as your last game.This applies for both teams this week.

Even all stat lovers out there realize once the game starts, stats mean nothing. Especially vague ones like the one posted here.

Ok, so low-scoring teams beat high scoring teams? yup, makes sense!

Default Re: Not what we are looking for. Horrorfying stat.

I'd be willing to bet (pun intended) that if I looked I could find similar 'horrifying' stats as to why Baltimore will surely lose.

One site I know of says this week that the Pats will lose and he cites a stat in regards to teams on a winning streak of what is it, nine games now? Guess what: he's been saying the very same thing every week about going against the Pats since the streak hit four games!


In this case, twelve games over 21 years? That's supposed to be a trend? And that doesn't even take into account how very much the game has changed over the past few years.

If I wanted to I could turn around and say that teams that scored 38 or more are overdue for a win under these circumstances, so therefore the Patriots will win.


I saw somewhere where there was an analysis of low scoring teams versus high scoring teams in the playoffs, or more specifically good offense/average defense versus good defense/average offense like this game is. It found pretty much zero correlation or trend that one or the other usually wins. That tells me a lot more than the 38-point trivia.

- The Pats had an ungodly win streak against the Bills.
- Tom Brady had an unbelievable streak of wins at home.
- BB and TFB were once 10-0 in the playoffs.

How many crazy Pats streaks have fallen in the last few years? If anything, uncanny streaks shouldn't really register with this fan base. We've watched several fall. They play the game for a reason.

Five hours and counting...
