**CLOSED** Losers League Contest - Session One

[Ringo]

No reason NOT to expect 8 upsets this week like last week.

Except for last week, favoring road tams in the NFL is a very risky business.

I wouldn't be surprised at all if Seattle and the Jets both win at home this week. Go Philly Go Philly

Stats for you....
No team with a losing road record has ever advanced to the Super Bowl in its 40-year history, and of the 80 teams that have competed in the championship game, only six finished at .500 on the road. Denver, at Super Bowl XXXII in 1997, was the last team with a non-winning road record to participate in the title game. The combined regular-season road record of the 20 franchises that have played in the past 10 Super Bowl games is 112-48, a mind-blowing .700 winning percentage.

14 teams are around or OVER 0.500 since 2009. Thats nearly half.

Its all about WHO they are on the road too.

The 49ers are undefeated on the Road and so is GB.

I am starting to have strong memories of 2 superbowls in the 80's
49ers vs Cinncy!!!

FYI Baltimore and New England are both 2-2 on the road, Ravens losing @ Tenn and Jac and New England losing to Buf and Pit
