I'm not exactly sure how to respond to your first sentance because I can't figure out what it was supposed to mean. I will however ask you one question. Perfect season aside, do you think the Pats would rather have their 18-0 (per-Super Bowl) record or a 12-6 season with a ring? I'll say/type it again; No team in the history of the NFL has been better over the course on an entire season than the 1972 Miami Dolphins. Whether you like it or not, it's in the record books and it's a fact.

@troyterry2445 Hungry enough to put a chokehold on seymour and get away with a play that should've been called dead. That's not sportsmanship, that's flat bullshit.

[troyterry2445]

no they went a step backwards if they were so great bad reffing wouldn't have been an issue eli's play to tyree alone showed that the Giants were more hungry and deserved the title of best of 2007

[troyterry2445]

yeah but they won the superbowl so that means they beat the best team in the league, they are worthy of the title best ever if other teams were so good they should've taken them out in the playoffs or the superbowl but that didn't happen the pats were a great team and if they would have gone undefeated they would have been regarded as the best but they failed to win the biggest game of the year to a team they had previously beaten so they cannot ever be considered as one of the best teams ever

1 is still more than 0, is it not?

@troyterry2445 18 is more than 17, is it not?

[earthpart3]

19 game season is still long than 17 games, is it not? Also, patriots didn't play a bunch of teams with awful records.

[troyterry2445]

1 game is still more than 0 games, is it not?

[davidberry1972]

Morris kicks ass! Its the 0 in the loss column that matters at the end of the season and the fact is the 72 dolphins have the only 0 in the loss column. The 07 patriots go 18-1 with no superbowl victory equals the biggest loss in football history, even worse than the buffalo bills who lost 4 straight superbowls!!!!

[Rennpanzer]

indeed, it is. Who knows, if NE's one-and-only loss had come in week 5 or 13, perhaps there wouldn't have been as much made of all this, a little less pressure, and they may have won the SB. Whatever the case may be, Brady's back. So, maybe they'll do it this year. Allthough, it would be nice to se that record stand for as long as coach Shula's still around. After he passes away, I wouldn't mind seeing a different team go undefeated every season.

[earthpart3]

still, 18 games is more than 17 games, is it not?
