Seems that you and Marcellus are the only folks unwilling to accept that.

That's just too simplistic... you act as if it's just impossible for the Colts and Saints' records to inflate that %. That's fine... overall, the quality of teams from 2008 presented a more difficult challenge than in 2009 so far.

Again, it's as easy as this for me... through 12 games in 2009, the Patriots have only played three games against teams with a record better than .500. In all of 2008, they had played in 7 games against teams with records better than .500.
