NE only got moss for a 4th rounder because he didnt try at all in Oakland and was a disgrace. If it was from the Vikings it would've been for more then a 1st rounder.

The bigger disgrace is that sorry excuse for a football team.

a player not trying is often more than one person's fault. The player certainly bears the brunt of the blame, but so does the coach. If you have players dogging it on you, you're a dead duck.

The [1972] Dolphins played the third-easiest schedule in the modern era. Their opponents were 70-122, a .367 percentage that was topped only by the 1975 Minnesota Vikings and the 1999 St. Louis Rams. As it turned out, the Dolphins didn't play a team with a winning record during the regular season.

So that means that, by your logic, the Dolphins were winless in the 1972 regular season since they didn't beat a single good team...

The proof being that the '72 dolphins won 2 games against good teams that entire year.

The proof is that if you want to go undefeated in the NFL, you have to play the majority of your games against shitty teams. I don't think you can argue that. And I don't give two shits about a Dolphins team that played 8 years before I was even born. The Dolphins won 2 games against good teams, the Patriots won 4 games against good teams....that's called adjusting for inflation.

Actually, the Dolphins won Zero regular season games against playoff teams or teams with records over .500.
The Patriots won 6 games against playoff teams (including every team in the NFC East), 7 against teams over .500.

"The proof is that if you want to go undefeated in the NFL, you have to play the majority of your games against shitty teams."
Actually... you're quite wrong (unsurprisingly). With 8 games against teams .500 or better, the Pats have played exactly half of their games against teams that were 'shitty' and half is not a majority. With 3 playoff games added in, it's not even close, the Pats will have clearly played the majority of their games against good to very good teams on their march to 19-0.

Adjusting for inflation... are you on crack?

The board isn't exactly hopping lately. Gotta entertain myself somehow.
