I think Shula just ensured a couple of 4th quarter TD passes for Brady.

I am WAY more interested in seeing a team go winless than go undefeated.

As such, Go Pats!

Rarely do you see a matchup of two teams going for a piece of history and BOTH teams can leave the game with their respective pursuits still in order.

The rams are still in the mix, too, but they will likely screw up, lose focus, and accidentally win a game sometime in the next 8 weeks. I am putting the real money on the Dolphins this year.

Yes, how strange that Miami may hold the records both for no losses and for no wins. Perhaps to top it off they should try and tie all 16 games next season.

Next season, they can drink when teams lose and also when teams win. It will be a toasty season for them next year.

I am told that the largest favorite in NFL history was when the 49ers were favored by 18 over the Chargers in the 1995 Super Bowl.

Any idea how this game compares?

I dont think thats true, unless you are talking about strictly in a Super Bowl, Because NE was favored by I believe 18 earlier this year when they played Miami, they were favored by 16.5 against a Washington team above .500.

I don't know who pressured Shula but he's completely changed his mind:
