You have some seeds being 1-12 in afc playoff games and 1-0 in SB for example. That can't be possible. Plus you don't have nearly enough afc playoff games.I compiled a table of the last 25 super bowls based on seeds and offense and defense team rankings. Its interesting to see how all the playoff team stack up to the last 25 super bowl representatives.

The 1-12 means that out of the last 13 years that the particular seed you were looking at made it to the super bowl 1 year out of 13 and didn't make it 12 out of the 13 years. The super bowl record directly to the right of that reflects what that seed did when it was in the super bowl, so for your example the 1-12, 1-0 "x" seed made it to the super bowl once in the last 13 years and that it also won the only super bowl that it was in. I hope this clears up the confusion.Your playoff record area is messed up. You have some seeds being 1-12 in afc playoff games and 1-0 in SB for example. That can't be possible.

I wonder which is the anomaly: the current streak with fewer #1 seeds, or the 90's streak with so many?Since 2000, only 4 out of 30 #1 seeds won it all. Well ill say 4 out of 27 since 3 times it was 1 vs 1. Still, that's insane. In the 90s alone there were 7.
You've gotta be a stock broker. Thats the crap I hear.Glass half full or glass half empty?
+Scenario: The Patriots went 2-4 in their last 6. Only one team has done this and won the SB - 2012 Ravens.
+Glass half empty: teams that go 2-4 in their last 6 virtually never win the SB.
+Glass half full: because of the very stark under representation of 2-4 teams winning the SB, statistically speaking 2-4 teams are wayyyy overdue to increase their SB win total

Also, some other numbers:
From 2002-2014 (current eight-division setup): which seed makes it to the Super Bowl?
AFC Champion:
(7) --- #1 seed
(3) --- #2 seed
(1) --- #3 seed
(1) --- #4 seed
(0) --- #5 seed
(1) --- #6 seed
NFC Champion:
(6) --- #1 seed
(2) --- #2 seed
(1) --- #3 seed
(2) --- #4 seed
(1) --- #5 seed
(1) --- #6 seed
18 times a team with a first round bye has made it to the Super Bowl, in comparison to 8 times that a team having to play in the wild card has made it - even though there are twice as many teams playing in the first round than there are teams that have a bye.
That's the good news for the Patriots. The bad news is that #1 seeds make it to the Super Bowl far more often than any other seed, including more than twice as often as number twos.
