seventh straight victory, both straight up and against the spread. The
win put the Pats in some lofty company, in more ways than one; they became

eight consecutive tilts, joining the Pittsburgh Steelers and San Diego
Chargers, who did it in 2004...read more

home in October following a SU win...read more
