Had those games been close, with teams winning on last second FGs, or other late game heroics? I would give more credence to the "one score loss" argument; but in the NFL, the vast majority of games are pretty close. They like it that way, drama sells.
Agree, every season there's a ton of "close" games. And quite often they don't mean much.
