You lost at home in the playoffs. We lost at home in the playoffs. Looking at trends and statistics is all well and good only with context.

We disagree on this point.

No, you're just wrong...

What part of your home/road statistical analysis helped you gain better insights in your home playoff games vs TN, BAL, and Pitt?

Manning and Brady played each other 17 times. The home team won 12 of those times.

But HFA doesn't matter...

So, KC's record at home in the playoffs means that HFA in general is inconsequential?

Some years the Pats were better than the Colts and the Colts better than the Pats. Simple as that.

Pertaining to this Sunday's game?

It doesn't mean a goddamn thing.

Since the Wild Card System began in 1970, only ten wild card teams have advanced all the way to the Super Bowl. Of those, six won the Super Bowl. Only four of those wild card teams -- New England Patriots (Brady), Pittsburgh Steelers(Big Ben), New York Giants(Eli), and Green Bay Packers(Rodgers) -- won three games on the road to make it to the Super Bowl.

But HFA DOES NOT MATTER...

Imagine how fucking stupid you have to be to completely dismiss HFA

Just because the home team can lose doesn’t change the fact that it’s an advantage

Of course not. HFA is the reason KC is favored in the game.

Because HFA matters...

Typically teams that hosts playoff games are the better team. Due to matchups gameplans, turnovers, poor play and injuries that isn't always the case.

Of course not. It doesn't comport with your beliefs.

That's kinda been a theme with Pats fans on here...

The idea that the Patriots mailed it in explains their road woes is completely inconsistent with the whole Patriot Way. BB demands accountability 100% of the time, and if he thought his team was mailing it in, mf'ers would have been cut the following Monday. Furthermore, if you look at 2016 and 2017, there are simply no games where the Patriots "mailed it in".

What's special about this year? Less talent on offense (for a variety of reasons) means they need perfect execution on offense to be their usual self, which is lots easier at home.
