10/18 7:00pm Pats 4-0, Cinc/Den/GB 6-0. Now Pats 7-0 They Are Still 6-0

Mind.Blown.

From Reddit:

Fact of the Day! For a few hours 2 Sunday's ago, the Patriots were 4-0, and the Bengals, Packers and Broncos were all 6-0. Now the Patriots are 7-0, winning 3 games without the others playing. (self.Patriots)

3 victories in a timespan where those other 3 teams don't even suit up is Chuck Norris territory.

In the history of the NFL, I can't imagine that has ever happened.

Sounds like more cheating. Has the league looked into this?

That's playing merry hell with my intuitions about YTD stats.

Yes. Ted Wells is preparing a report that says more likely than not the league can dock the Pats some more draft picks for it.

Does anyone know how the NFL comes up with their schedule every year?

Yeah definitely fishy. According to other team fans, pats play the weakest teams every year and have 11 home games.
