Pointless Stats

Waiting for the game.
We all know the Patriots are #1 in point differential at +191,
We know the Falcons are #2 at +134,
Since they played different teams, I looked at the point differential against playoff teams they faced.
The Patriots point differential against playoff teams they faced is +59
The Falcons point differential against playoff teams they faced is +5

All of that could easily be explained by strength of schedule. You have to admit playing the Texans was basically a gifted playoff win.

Maybe, but sometimes you see a pattern.....

Just use play index on pro-football-reference. +72 for the Pats and +20 for the Falcons against winning teams.
