It is difficult to beat the same team three times, because it is rare to beat a team twice in the regular season and then meet a third time with a 3-game sweep on the line.

Since the AFL-NFL merger in 1970, there have been 21 times that teams met in the playoffs with a 3-game sweep on the line.

But, when those teams meet for the 3-game sweep, what happens? The sweep happens 67% of the time!

Here is the history of possible 3-game sweep playoff games:
Year Team Opponent Playoff Result
2017 Saints Panthers Win
2009 Cowboys Eagles Win
2008 Steelers Ravens Win
2007 Cowboys Giants Lose
2004 Packers Vikings Lose
2004 Rams Seahawks Win
2002 Steelers Browns Win
2000 Giants Eagles Win
1999 Titans Jaguars Win
1998 Cowboys Cardinals Lose
1997 Packers Bucs Win
1997 Patriots Dolphins Win
1994 Steelers Browns Win
1994 Vikings Bears Lose
1993 Raiders Broncos Win
1992 Chiefs Chargers Lose
1991 Chiefs Raiders Win
1989 Oilers Steelers Lose
1986 Giants Redskins Win
1983 Seahawks Raiders Lose
1982 Dolphins Jets Win

So basically, it's not actually that hard to beat a team the 3rd time. 67% of the time, it works every time.

I was surprised it was 67%, figured it would be 33%.

Agree. There is nothing I hate more then Buck when your team is losing. The guy just screams “douche” and has a more tempting punch me face than Jay Cutler.

Aikman is almost worse. I like him but he has monotone delivery and never shuts up.

Buck and Aikman are ok with me.

Floyd gets run over by Jones then Rogers jukes the shit out of him.

I've been stuck on the MLB Network all afternoon. I'm pacing myself until the Baltimore game later. And not trying to burn out before the big game tomorrow evening. I got my crawfish and shrimp waiting in the freezer.

Floyd was very good this year. There’s no point in pretending otherwise.

Where is he in the episode? I like his show but he hasn’t traveled anywhere in nearly a year.
