Default Re: Likelihood of undefeated Pats

any of you idiots who voted over 50%, I will take 1:1 for any amount up to 5k.

I may be torpidly tired right now, but if you're calling people idiots for voting 50% or over on the pats to go undefeated, you should put your money where your mouth is and at least offer 2:1. Lest you forget, the Steelers went 15-1 a few years back, and the Pats went 14-2, with one of their losses missing Corey Dillon, and the other loss-if they had been 14-0 at that point- to Miami would have a far less probability of occuring.

I don't know if you remember that Miami game (in 2004 I assume), but the Pats did not sit their starters. They seemed to have the game in hand when Brady threw 2 interceptions (I think) in the 4th quarter (one of them on one of the worst throws I have ever seen). I don't think that that is less likely to happen if the team is undefeated, and this shows the dificulty in going 16-0. Crazy things like this are all too possible.
