Belichick does this feeling out process during the first quarter-and-a-half of many playoff games, especially Super Bowls, that I think might deflate the score from where the over/under puts it. The scores after the first quarter for Belichick SBs have been:
3-0 0-0 0-0 3-0 9-0 0-0
The outlier was, of course, a game where the Pats had a horrendous start as opposed to the other games where they had a cautious start. The 2nd quarter might be the one to pay attention to, as it's where the Patriots tend to score in bunches in these games. The 4th quarter is also worth watching (duh) because in BB coached SBs it's been absolute chaos. Total points by Patriots and (Opponents) and [Total] by quarter in B/B SBs:
It wasn't until I ran these numbers that I realized Belichick/Brady teams have scored zero total points in the first quarter of six Super Bowls. How does that happen?
