Your evidence is based on winning %. If you go back and read my post youll see that I do not believe that winning % of the niner's opponents in a 6 game 2020 is an accurate enough measure of "toughness" to make the claim that it was the "toughest" 6 game stretch of all time. The most you can say is that you played a 6 game stretch against teams with the highest win %.
Im sorry youre not smart enough to understand or read my actual argument. But in my mind "toughness" doesnt necessarily correspond 1:1 to win %. There are some years where even 3 really good teams have been in the same division and hurt each other's winning %. There are years with a crappy division where a teams winning % is inflated.... If your ONLY measure is win % , I don't personally find that ENOUGH evidence of "the toughest 6 game streak' of all time.that is a bold clai.....because theres so many other factors involved.

You're still mis-using the fallacies. Proving a negative would be to prove a harder stretch doesn't exist. It is absolutely possible to prove that one does does exist.
Regarding inflated winning percentages and such... We're in the best division in football. Our division was one FG away from having 3 teams in the playoffs and has repped the NFC in the Superbowl 4 of the last 7 years
