DaDaDa, DaDaDa: Another highlight mistake from ESPN.
After most NFL games went final Sunday night, ESPN tweeted this interesting statistic from its “SportsCenter” account.

Hmm, that’s strange. Larry Fitzgerald (second from left, bottom) and the Arizona Cardinals have been terrific this season, but they lost in Week 4 to the St. Louis Rams.
But where are the New England Patriots? After the team’s 30-6 win over the Dallas Cowboys, the Patriots are 4-0 for the fourth time in the Bill Belichick-Tom Brady era.
ESPN quickly deleted the initial tweet and replaced it, this time including a photo of TB12.

It’s not the first time this season Brady and the Pats have been overlooked in favor of the Cardinals. The NFL’s Twitter account left Brady out of a tweet promoting Super Bowl predictions and featuring the league’s “elite” quarterbacks, instead including the Cardinals’ Carson Palmer.
