I used to find a measure of comfort in those stats. But around 2009, we started to learn that streaks end, and we've seen plenty end over the last three years.
Not that I think the Pats are going to lose Sunday.
Then again, in my preseason prediction thread, I had the Seattle game down as one of those inexplicable losses.
I agree, while clearly these stats are true they should not be used to predict the future.
And yes, in 2009 we all heard the stat that the Pats were something like 50-1 in games they led going into the fourth quarter under Belichick. Of course, they lost at least four such games in 2009 (at Indy, at Miami, at Denver, at Houston).
