What a second: What he's saying is that since 2005, Super Bowl teams are 12-0 ON THE ROAD.

The point being that Home Field Advantage in the playoffs isn't as important as once thought or even necessary to win a Super Bowl.

Therefore, winning the division has been proven to be an unnecessary component to winning a Super Bowl.

What's so wrong, funny or dumb about that?

What he's trying to say and what he's saying are two different things. He's trying to say, "Since 2005, Super Bowl winning teams have played 12 road games vs. 7 home games."

The way it reads is, "The teams that have gone on the road to win the Super Bowl are 12-0."

It sounds tarded.

I believe most people know what he's trying to say. But it's not worded well and makes him sound stupid. Yeah, it's kind of nit-picky but I had to read it two or three times before I really understood what he was getting at.

• Low Seeds Rule. Since 2005, Super Bowl winners are 12-0 on the road in the playoffs. The last seven champs have played only seven home games in all, in addition to the 12 road games, which means the champ has come out of the pack of those teams that often end up scrambling to make the playoffs at the end.

You really don't see how it's both unnecessary and redundant to say that Super Bowl winners are undefeated? If King were to just omit that stat, this would be a non-issue. Here...

"Since 2005, Super Bowl winners have played 12 road games vs. 7 home games; which means the champ..."

No, not at all.

Super Bowl winners have been 12-0 ON THE ROAD since 2005.

Do you have a different way to describe a Super Bowl winner?

I've said it three times already, but I'll repeat it again...

"Since 2005, Super Bowl winners have played 12 road games vs. 7 home games."

By default, Super Bowl winners are undefeated in the playoffs. However, since 2005, of the 19 games these winners have played, 12 of them have been on the road. That's the point of emphasis, not the record.

Let me ask you this, if you won the Super Bowl last year and played three road games, what was your record? Point being that the record on the road in the playoffs is redundant. It's not necessary to say that Super Bowl winners are 12-0 on the road. Just say, Super Bowl winners have played 12 road games.

You are putting emphasis on the "0", King is intending to emphasize the "12".

"The last 7 Super Bowl winners are undefeated on the road". Stupid statement.

"The last 7 Super Bowl winners are 12-0 on the road." Could be worded better, but with the next two sentences in his article, it puts it all in perspective.
