WOWWWWWW That is quite a stretch, even for you, Junc. Is Tom Brady's presence (or lack thereof) truly a factor in whether or not a win is deserved?? I guess the Steelers' Super Bowl win doesn't count that year either, since Brady wasn't there to try. Plus, if they ARE excluding 2008, 8/9 games only covers to 2002. if they're talking about seasons Brady started, what about 2001? When Bledsoe went down in Week 2 and Brady led them to the playoffs?
Your div title counts but we all know if Brady is healthy they win the division that year. He's that great.
I don't know, just trying to give a rational explanation. Herm isn't a great fact guy
