Undefeated...

Congratulations to the New England Patriots, who complete the regular season 16-0 last night. I was going to stay up and watch it on an internet stream of dubious legality, but went drinking with my sister instead, and was asleep before Match of the Day.

Speaking as someone who'd only been following NFL this season, really, how much credit will they get if they don't go on and win the Superbowl?

For what it's worth, I think it would be equivalent to Graham Henry's New Zealand team beating the crap out of everyone for the last four years, then losing to France in the quarter final. A very good team, for sure, but perhaps destined not to be regarded as one of the finest ever, which they would have been, had they won the World Cup.

Anyway, I'm still rooting for the Packers.

They will still get some good credit. They are 1 of only 4 teams to go undefeated in the history of the league. The big question is not are they among the best, but are they the very best? They want to achieve what only the '72 dolphins have done. However, to be at least as good as the Bears teams that achieved this goal they have to at least get to the championship game.
