Are the 2019 Patriots better than the 2007 Patriots?
The Washington Post’s Neil Greenberg uses TruMedia’s expected-points model to compare the 2019 Patriots to the 2007 team, which finished the regular season 16-0:
“New England’s offense scored 63 more points than expected through the first three games of 2007 after taking into account the down, distance and field position of each play, per data from TruMedia. Those Patriots saved just 19 points on defense. This year, New England scored 19 more points than expected on offense, with 81 points saved on defense, a complete inverse of how 2007′s squad began its undefeated campaign.”
