I post this every year, but I never can remember the results when asked. So I'm digging up archives to post the game by game results. If or when the system play comes up this season, I'll be able to retrieve this thread for use.
I have said that the last time it lost was 1977. It was actually 1978 as I have found; assuming of course that I don't find any more recent losers, which I don't expect to find.
So here's the plays since it's last loss in 1978 (0-1 that year).
1979: CHARGERS (+4) 35, Steelers 7 Win
1980: No plays
1981: EAGLES 20, Bills 14*
*Unsure of the line here. If anyone knows, please post. The game took place week 3 of the 1981 season. The Eagles had gone to the Superbowl the previous year after finishing 12-4, but the Bills were 11-5 the previous year. Both were 2-0 going into the game and the Bills had routed both their first two opponents exceeding the 30-10 mark in both games.
With that knowledge, I would not think the Eagles were more than a 6-pt fave, but I'd like to know. More to follow.
