I know it's a formula, but the Pats behind the 8-4 Pack, and the 9-3 Steelers (who they beat) comes off a bit raw.
well, i guess we will see. if the pats get thumped in their first game of the playoffs again, then maybe this formula was accurate. regardless, there are still 4 weeks left so the pats could end the regular season at #1. they have actually skyrocketed the last few weeks with their big wins.
