In another thread we have a delusional steelers fan questioning whether Gronk assassinated Lincoln, met with to influence the election or kidnapped the Lindbergh baby.
But one piece of that thread was interesting to me. In order to make the Steelers look better he tried to claim the patriots have it easy because of their division. I wonder what the numbers say. This is since 2004, coinciding with rapistburger coming to Pitt.
Regular season.
Patriots. 172-48
Steelers. 147-73
Patriots won 2 more games per year.
Miami. 95-125
Buff. 93-127
jete. 103-117
Total. 291-369
Cincy. 115-102-3
Bmore. 125-95
Cleveland. 62-158
Total. 302-355-3
So at first look perhaps the Steelers division has been tough. But...
Patriots vs afce. 64-17
Steelers vs afcn. 57-25
So against everyone except the pats in the easy and steelers in the north you have:
Afce 274-305
Afcn. 277-298-3
Virtually identical.
But finally
Steelers vs afce. 17-11
Pats vs afcn. 22-6
So aside the afce looks worse because it has to play the patriots but when you subtract that away then account for the patriots drubbing the afcn and the Steelers being soso against the afce it appears the patriots have won 2 more games a year and also find it against tougher competition.
Oh and playoffs?
Patriots 12 trips. 19-9
Steelers 9 trips. 13-7
