Rubes Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Week 5 against Denver. At home. Yesterday against the Texans. At home. Next week against the 49ers. At home. Meanwhile, this year their road trips included Tennessee, Jacksonville, Seattle, and St. Louis. I'm sure it's just an anomaly, but damn that is really starting to piss me off.

Drop Kick Flutie Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 How about Baltimore? @ Seattle is no joke either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rubes Posted December 12, 2012 Author Share Posted December 12, 2012 How about Baltimore? @ Seattle is no joke either. True, it's not 100% the case, but @Seattle isn't exactly a huge game. Baltimore was, but that's basically one key matchup on the road... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max997 Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 (edited) The scheduling of these two games vs Houston and SF back to back at home in prime time in December is interesting though Edited December 12, 2012 by Max997 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Trooth Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 The Pats are what you wish the Bills were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledInIllinois Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 That would make Ralph.....what?......124? And the Bills 6-54 against the Pats* during that timeframe... :-O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PIZ Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Because unfortunately the Pats are an unbelievable team and an unbelievable franchise run by an unbelievable QB and unbelievable head coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Storm Front Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Because unfortunately the Pats are an unbelievable team and an unbelievable franchise run by an unbelievable QB and unbelievable head coach. You are right, they are "unbelievable." See Spygate. There is a reason the big games are played by the most popular teams: the NFL is = to the WWE. The same teams have been winning for the last 10 years or so. There is always going to be a team from NY, CA, TX in the playoffs. The most popular teams are the winning teams....Steelers, Cowboys, Packers, Giants and Pats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what this established is winners have more fans. And statistically speaking Oakland, SF, San Diego, NYJ, NYG, Houston or Dallas should atleast account for one playoff spot? And the pats, with a great qb, have overcome a great deal of mediocrity throughout their history? Does that cover it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because Kraft kneels before RG and you hear a great big sucking sound. Because unfortunately the Pats* are an unbelievable team and an unbelievable franchise run by an unbelievable QB and unbelievable head coach. There uses to be a rule that the Cheatriots when called the Pats must be followed by an asterisk. And I won't rehash the favoritism they get from the Refs*. Replacement Refs 8+ flags per game 1-2 record. Regular Refs 4 flags per game where they had lost 1 game since and had 8 flags in that game Edited December 12, 2012 by BillsFan-4-Ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voodoo poonani Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Because the Patriots put on a show while the Bills are no-shows, oh and the schedule is developed way ahead of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wooderson Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 This doesn't have a whole lot to do with "big games at home" but it is an unbelievable stat. Since 2010, the Patriots are 21-0 in the second half of the season (2010: 8-0), (2011: 8-0), (2012: 5-0). Talk about improving as the season progresses.

BTW did you run these numbers on every team or just the "hot chick" that won't give you the time of day?

Sisyphean Bills Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 The simple answer: When you win a lot of games, you play in more games that actually count. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
