HOU-MIA 2 NYJ-NE 2 OAK-SD 2 DAL-NYG 1
PHI-CAR 2 BYE   BYE   BAL-ARI 2 x 17

Lot of tossups here. Seattle could continue to unravel. Cleveland could catch STL on a zero-offense day. Oakland could rock SD. Etc. Not a single one of these do I feel 100% about.

People shouldn't put too much stock in those strength of schedule stats. Teams that win a lot will automatically move closer to the bottom, because handing out a loss to another team means that their schedule got easier due to that other team now having a worse record than before. Essentially, teams get punished for winning games.

The same thing applies vice versa, so you can't really say that the teams who lost a lot of games did so because they faced such good opponents, because there's also the possibility that such loser teams are plain and simply bad. In other words, they would lose a lot of games regardless of their schedule.

I don't consider these strength of schedule rankings useful at all.


I think you are butthurt because your team has an easy schedule every year. Lions suck. Vikings suck and the bears suck almost every year.

Yeah... you aren't just bad at spelling, but also logical thinking. Any team with a positive record will have a hard time to finish in the top 10 of strength of schedule.

Stats exist to attempt to reveal truths. You're no statician. All science including stats will admit it is not flawless. I know your life education comes from vgc, so you might not undersytand that.

The only reason the Colts versus Patriots game was even somewhat close is because of Brady's pick six otherwise it would have been close to a blowout. Also as I said last week the Panthers are legit, they might not have receiving core but they have the second best tight end in the league in Greg Olson and the defense is pretty good the only team in the NFC that is better right now are the Packers.

Tyler Eifert would like to have a word with you.


Before this weeks games Eifert had a slightly better season but Olson pulled ahead this week and when you look at both of their entire careers Olson is miles ahead.

Have you ever heard the saying "There are lies, damned lies, and statistics.", and do you know what it means?

I do not care. Why should I? Even if it is qoute from a statician This convesation will go nowhere because I think you like to troll and you will convince me of nothing. Vgc is a site all about stats.
