In a neverending race to the bottom, this clown has joined TMQ and Peter King as writers that can't spot simple factual mistakes in their brief (or in TMQ's case, overlong) pieces:
"But over the course of their last six games, the Patriots average margin of victory has shrunk to a modest 6.1 points, despite playing only two teams with a winning record: the Steelers and Giants. They've had three games decided by the margin of a field goal, and a sluggish 10-point win against a pesky Jets team -- in a game played in less than ideal weather conditions."

The Pats average margin of victory over the last 6 games is actually 10.1 points (61/6). But Banks didn't let that bothersome fact get in the way of his larger point, i.e., the Pats are vulnerable.
