Nope. Not counting the Texans (who have a few teams they've never beaten) every other NFL team has beaten every other at least once.

I'm 99% sure the Jags and Panthers are included, too--even the New Browns crossed off the last 2 never-beaten teams off their list (Cowboys and Eagles) last season.

Thanks, that's such a strange statistic.

If I understand math correctly - if two teams each have a 50% change of winning and play each other 12 times, the chance that one team will win all 12 games is one in 2^12 = 4096 (or maybe one in 2048, since there are two teams).
