Thought I'd go back and see how my way-too-early predictions were working out.

RED were wrong predictions. YELLOW I got right.

Predicted 3-3 at this point, we're 2-4. If all the rest break even, our final record would be 5-12.

It's getting painful watching games. I'm having flashbacks to 70s/80s.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Prediction Actual

Home (2 - 6)
W - Bears
L - Lions - L
L - Vikings
W - Buccaneers
L - Chiefs
L - Chargers
L - Rams
L - Saints - W

Away (4 - 5)
W - Bears - W
L - Lions
L - Vikings
W - Broncos - L
W - Falcons - L
L - Giants
W - Panthers
L - Raiders - L
L - Steelers

6 - 11.  Hope I'm wrong.  Reminds me too much of the 70s and 80s.

Why isn't that averaging out more?

Clearly more small ball in the 1st half and opening it up some in the second half, but why? And you think teams would pick up on that and be ready, or they would start more aggressively.


W - @ Bears (1-0)
L - @ Falcons (1-1)
W - Saints (2-1)
L - Lions (2-2)
W - @ Raiders (3-2)
Bye 
L - @ Broncos (3-3)

And Broncos/Packers rivalry, the home team has never lost, unless the game went to overtime.



If Packers keep playing like they're currently playing, I don't see very many more wins. I was thinking 4 win season but want to add a surprise 5th win in there somewhere.

Of course that's as they're currently playing.

I feel like the offense could potentially throw a switch, and suddenly start playing more complete games. But it seems like they don't know how to flip that switch.

The defense is built to pass rush and protect a lead, which is absolutely not the case right now. And they can't stop the run using their standards methods, and Barry is attempting to get creative, but then it leaves holes elsewhere.

Looks like I was 7-2 in predictions for the first half of the season. But 1-2 in this quarter so far. For a total of 8-4. But the rest of my season predictions looks pretty good.

And my Home/Away Record Prediction look in great shape

I said 12-5. They stumbled in a few games they should have won. They can win out and go 11-6. I will be pleased.

I'm going 12-5 and win the division

Ok hear me out, I don't think it's too far-fetched to say we run the table and finish 11-6. Now let's look at the Lions that have a brutal schedule coming and they haven't been looking really good lately. They have the Bears, Vikes twice ( I can see a split there) Broncos who have been playing good ball and just had a long winning streakand then the Cowboys. In the end I think they will lose 4 of those games and still make the playoffs but they would be coming to Lambeau for a playoff game 😉


See you in the playoffs folks

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

Using ESPN playoff machine is interesting
https://www.espn.com/nfl/playoffs/machine 

If you just go by Winning Percentage there is still a lot of ties, which are games to be decided.

Just looking at potential NFC playoffs teams, also adding NFC playoff teams vs NFC playoff teams

Eagles at Cowboys
Vikings at Bengals
Cowboys at Dolphins
Ravens at 49ers
Eagles at Seahawks
Lions at Cowboys
Lions at Vikings
Packers at Vikings
Vikings at Lions

Will be interesting to see if the Eagles can hold onto the #1 seed, hold off the Cowboys for the division and 49ers and Lions from the #1 seed.

Vikings, Packers, Rams and Seahawks all at 6-6 competing for 2 playoff spots.


Current statistics suggest the following seeding
http://www.playoffstatus.com/nfl/nfcstandings.html 

#1 Eagles at 58% probability
#2 49ers at 46%
#3 Lions at 60%
#4 Falcons at 61%
#5 Cowboys at 73%
#6 Packers at 38%
#7 Rams at 28%

Interestingly, for the 6th seed or below the Vikings currently control their destiny the most, but the probabilities suggest they're going to blow it and they have a 59% chance to miss the playoffs completely.

If this turns out correct it'll be

#1 Eagles bye week
#7 Rams @ #2 49ers
#6 Packers @ #3 Lions
#5 Cowboys @ #4 Falcons

If this happens, I guess we'll see whom the best NFC North team really is.

Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Mystery candidate in the Cowboys head coaching search believed to be Packers ST Coordinator Rich Bisaccia.
beast (23-Jan) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?
beast (23-Jan) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season

beast (21-Jan) : Rankings were 1) Oregon 2) Georgia 3) Texas 4) Penn State 5) Notre Dame 6) Ohio State, none of the rest mattered
wpr (21-Jan) : Texas, ND and OSU would have been fighting for the final 2 slots.

wpr (21-Jan) : Zero, no. If there were only 4 teams Ohio State would have been one of them. Boise St and ASU would not have been selected.
