i was doing research on our records against other teams since the divisional realignment in 2002. the results were not pretty obviously, but somewhat interesting.
from 2002 until week 5 of the 2009 season:
We are 23-22 against our division. only 22-50 against the rest of the NFL...
13-31 against the NFC, 9-19 against the AFC.
by division, we are 5-11 against the NFC East, 3-11 against the NFC South, 5-9 against the NFC North, 4-4 against the AFC West, 2-6 against the AFC North, 2-6 against the AFC East, and 1-3 against the AFC South
some notable matchup extremes include records of just 0-5 vs. the Saints, 1-4 vs. the Eagles, 0-3 against GB & ATL, and 1-3 against the NYG.
on the positive side, we are 3-0 against the Lions, 2-0 against the Raiders, 3-1 against TB. coming into this weeks matchup with Houston, we are an undefeated 1-0 in the all time series. lol.
Also, we are 8-3 in Overtime games, and currently have NOT lost an OT game since Oct. 26th, 2003 against AZ, going 7-0 since then. that will be exactly 6 years this sunday since we lost an OT game, which is pretty impressive.
we are 29-31 at home, and 16-41 on the road
Sorry to bring up bad memories of years past, but i thought it was interesting to see how weve done record wise against specific teams.
So clearly, our strategy should be to send all games into OT.
