CommDownMan Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 3, 4, 5, 7 and 8 on your list won and 6 played 4. Certainly cant do much better than that. Bengals are looking like a tough 'opponent' for #1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Sinister Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Fitz bout to get that office space treatment 😂 "Yeeeaaaaaaah.... You're, you're just winning too much, and we cant have that, so why don't you go ahead and toss me that playbook over there." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HTTRDynasty Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Giants are currently at #3, right behind us. I’d have to be rushed to the emergency room if we somehow pass on Chase Young and the Giants take him with the next pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He hasn’t looked right since coming back from his injury earlier this season. They might shut him down for the year. I know we lost to them without Saquon earlier this year, but I’m not confident we’ll lose twice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExoDus84 Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Pretty damn good week for our draft position. All the stanky garbage teams got wins, except for Cincy of course. Cincy's tank game is just too strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostofSparta Posted November 11, 2019 Author Share Posted November 11, 2019 OK, it's updated after today's games. Couple of teams got win #3 (Browns, Bucs) to fall off the list, a few huge wins out of the Falcons, Dolphins, and Jets today. ****ing Bengals, man. I will update once more on Tuesday to reflect the new SoS's after this week's slate is done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The more our opponents lose, the lower SOS percentage we have, which means we’d win the tie-breaker against teams with the same record as us at the end of the year.

Uncommon opponents to impact SoS will probably be a feature around week 15, but for right now that's just too much extra work with this much season left.

We play the packers and play the Panthers. With them playing each other 1 team will increase our opponents wins by 1 and the other 1 loss. After 16 games the change in SOS mathematically is the same whether the packers or Panthers win. Edit: just for clarification, it isn't opponent strength the week we play them. It's over the entire 16 game schedule. So Panthers losing technically helps, but not if it's to another team on our schedule. Ravens beating Pats last week helped since we dont play the ravens and it lowered the pats record giving them a 'weaker' record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jericho Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Cincy seems in full out tank mode starting a 4th round rookie...but, they do play Miami, the Jets, and Cleveland twice among other teams to finish out the season.

Napredskins1 Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Any good tight ends we can get in the 3rd round or later. We need to press the reset button on that position and get some new guys in here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ravens beating Pats last week helped since we dont play the ravens and it lowered the pats record giving them a 'weaker' record. I know it’s over a 16-game schedule. A Panthers loss helps because one of the teams we’re competing against for a top pick is the Giants, who we could definitely end up sharing the same record with at the end of the season. The Giants play the Packers, like us, but they don’t play the Panthers. Therefore, we wanted the Panthers to lose instead of the Packers because it helped lower our SOS relative to the Giants’. At the end of the day, it likely won’t matter, but why not root for an outcome that helps you, however minor that help is? For example, I’m rooting for the Cowboys to lose this game against the Vikings... not just because I hate Dallas, but also because them winning has a double-whammy effect on increasing our SOS percentage, since we play them twice. In that case, I’m worried about our SOS relative to the other terrible teams we’re competing against, not the Giants, since the Giants also play Dallas twice.

GhostofSparta Posted November 17, 2019 Author Share Posted November 17, 2019 Down to only 4 teams now with 2 or fewer wins: Bengals, Redskins, Giants, Dolphins. I will update this tonight after the Cincy/Oakland game is complete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
