But only 2-2 in the playoffs in that same time span.
Its a nice history stat yes, but it really has no influence on whatever game the team is playing next and I hate it when the media brings this crap up before or during a big game.
Its just that it seems that every time the media brings this stuff up, something always goes wrong.
30-4 total at home since 2009 there ya go.
Hi, my response my have been misinterpretted. I did not intend to come off as a jerk know it all. Your statement is accurate. I brought the playoff stat of 2-2 more to point out just how crazy and unfortunate it was that they ended up losing not one but TWO playoff games during a streak in which they were almost invincible at home. Such a shame.
I see where you are coming from with this, but by the same token the media bringing these stats up has no influence on the Patriots losing a game. That happens when they are unprepared, don't play well, get "out-coached", etc.
Finally, what I think they point out is that the Patriots RARELY lose at home and RARELY lose in December - a testament to their preparation. Therein lies the comfort we seek to help quell the jitters while we wait for game day to arrive.
Like jinxing a no hitter in baseball.....It always seems to happen the instant the color commentator talks about something never happening, it happens......I am pretty sure someone talked about Brady's only have 4 interceptions during the Phin game.....and within a play of two, he throws a tipped pass / pick.

Sitting where I sit in the stadium...I get to see so of the behind the scenes interactions...I need to find a link to the post game show with Steve Young. He had some high praise for Brady as a QB. and this comes from a guy who played the position t a high level and is a HoF QB and followed in the footsteps of Joe Montana.
