hatchetwound Posted November 25, 2020 Share Posted November 25, 2020 After we beat the Cowgirls tomorrow and retake first place, can the mods put back up that large graphic of the current standings like after week 1? I liked having it there to keep track of the east but I can understand why they got rid of it after week 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But again, how does head-to-head not come before that? EDIT: weird thing is, Foxsports.com shows us in 3rd in the standings, yet ESPN and NFL.com have us in 4th place....

Okay firstly, this conversation about First Palace, all started with my post being predicated on us winning Thursday - not our current records. If we win Thursday, at that moment in time, we will be the undisputed champion of the division, at that very point in time. Secondly, even the current standings appear to be wrong if they have us in last place. If I'm not mistaken, the tiebreaker would be based on Divisional opponents, and we have a better Divisional record than Dallas, so I see them being in last place.

Yes, and I wasn’t responding to your post at all, i quoted only the person that was asking if Dallas is in 4th (which his question is indeed based on current records. I am fully aware yours wasn’t about current records). It had nothing to do with your “first palace” post—which btw got a laugh from me infact, i dont think any of the 3 posts you quoted were going off of your prediction that they’d be in first place with a win tomorrow. Zskins’s response to VOR read (at least to me) that he was simply only making the point that paloffs can’t possibly be now given that the team is in 3rd. I dont think his post was at all based off of your prediction (just from my understanding). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the next 6 weeks will tell us is does this team suck as bad as the bottom teams or suck less and might be able to get to 5 wins on the season. EDit: didn't look at the date lol...nevermind.

Califan007 The Constipated Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 As for the division standings, when three teams have the same W/L record: Head-to-head (best won-lost-tied percentage in games among the clubs) - In games among the clubs, Giants are 2-1 (.66), Cowboys are 1-1 (.50), and we are 1-2 (.33). That's why we are last. Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the division Best won-lost-tied percentage in common games Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the conference Strength of victory Strength of schedule Best combined ranking among conference teams in points scored and points allowed Best combined ranking among all teams in points scored and points allowed Best net points in common games Best net points in all games Best net touchdowns in all games Coin toss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't looked at this thread in a while, but I'm sticking with 5 wins lol. If WFT wins today I like their chances to win this clunker division, otherwise they're pretty much done. Getting swept by the Giants hurt. And softening up Cincy ain't helping either. Giants seem to be in the drivers seat with 3 divisional wins, but they haven't won a game outside the division yet. They get Cincy this weekend which should be a win and then 4 straight against good teams before they finish with Dallas. Dallas has to sweep their final divisional games and pick up a win against Cincy. Eagles the same, need to sweep final divisional games, but they look done to me and their next 4 are brutal (Seahawks, Packers, Saints, Cardinals). Dallas, coming off a quality win in Minny, will probably win the East if they win today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EDIT: I was thinking for some reason that included their games against Philly too, but they’re not tied at 3-7. You’re right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just the three clubs that are involved in the three way tie. On another note, I'm hanging my hat on the fact that Washington has be best point differential in the division and the lowest points allowed. Also, the fact that somehow, Alex Smith is the QB in the division least likely to crap the bed. Note that I'm not saying he's the best QB, but Dallas is basically running guys in off the street, and Wentz and Daniel Jones have occasional games where they vomit all over themselves. Right now, we've got the QB with the highest floor (but probably second lowest ceiling) a mean D-Line, the best point differential...I guess we're as well positioned as any 3-7 team can be.

If it was just us and Dallas that were tied, we would win on tie-breakers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
