Last 10 Super Bowl champions after 12 games
Last 10 Super Bowl champions' records after 12 games:
2018 Patriots 9-3
2017 Eagles 10-2
2016 Patriots 10-2
2015 Broncos 10-2
2014 Patriots 9-3
2013 Seahawks 11-1
2012 Ravens 9-3
2011 Giants 6-6
2010 Packers 8-4
2009 Saints 12-0
AVERAGE RECORD: 9.4 - 2.6
STANDARD DEVIATION: 1.56 wins
So, we'd reasonably expect that a team with 8+ wins after 12 games is very much in the hunt for a championship, if recent history is any guide. We'll see who is in that group after the weekend. And, it's always important to ask who is in the 2011 Giants group, a team with a weak record that could get hot. Any thoughts on this? I would assert the Titans and the Cowboys. The latter have played poorly of late but the stats are excellent and the talent is there. That said, that's a one-in-ten deal. My money is on the frontrunners in any given season.
