Yeah you're right, but stats are how we talk about football. Without them you're just giving your opinion. Stats allow you to argue about sports intelligently...
Saying "The Eagles suck!!!" to your eagles fan roomate might satisfying when you're drunk.
But it is much more effective to simply ask "How many Superbowls have you won?"
It may not be a stat that is relevant to their chances any given season, but it will sure piss off an eagles fan.
