People argue the Patriots deserved to go undefeated and lose the Super Bowl.
If you ask me, is going undefeated really worth it?
The 49ers probably could have done it back in 1984, and were just a fieldgoal away from going undefeated. But even winning 15 games they had complete control of home field advantage in the playoffs.
That's all that matters. Getting the #1 seed in the playoffs.
It's called "Running the table". If we can win 3 playoff games on the road to make it to the Super Bowl, just imagine the power this team could have calling the shots with their own fans screaming and shouting for them. That's why the Jets go to 2 back to back AFC Championship games and lose. They can't handle it on the road like we did last season. The Vikings didn't have homefield for the NFC Championship in 2009, and even though they managed to keep the game so close even with turning the ball over 6 times, still they did not have the edge.
That's all I want, is homefield advantage, the #1 seed.
