Fun fact: The New York Jets have never beaten the Philadelphia Eagles
- acemarke 9y agoWell, they presumably only play once every four years. And also... it's the Jets :)
- jessriedel 9y agoYea, it's only been 10 games. Even for perfectly random coin tosses, the chance that you get the same result 9 times as the result of the first toss is 1 in 2^9 = 512. With lots of potential team pairings, and the obvious fact that teams can be above/below average over 4+ years (correlating the outcomes), this isn't that crazy. http://www.footballdb.com/teams/nfl/philadelphia-eagles/teamvsteam?opp=22 http://www.footballdb.com/teams/nfl/philadelphia-eagles/team...
- maxerickson 9y agoThere's only 496 pairings with 32 teams. The number of pairings between teams that play infrequently will be quite a bit smaller.
- elchief 9y agoAnd never played in the Super Bowl...because Eagles :)
- 91bananas 9y agoHad to google to see this in real internet life. It is true. Insane.
- self-diversity 9y agoI'm an Eagles fan and I did not know this. I used to end up spending time with an amazingly annoying Jets fan, this would have been a fun tidbit to bring up repeatedly.
- s73ver 9y agoBrett Favre and Peyton Manning are the only quarterbacks to have beaten all 32 NFL teams.
