KDawg Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 The winner of this division is going to be 4-12 or 5-11 and pick 19th in the NFL Draft. Holy **** talk about an awful scenario. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holy **** talk about an awful scenario. I'm actually happy it probably won't be us. It's one thing to be in the worst division in football, it's another to be the winner of that division and always be in the record books. Everyone just expects us to be last in the division anyways.

Imagine being talent deprived enough to finish 4-12, 5-11 or even 6-10 and still pick 19th in the next draft.And the reason your record is even that good is because of how bad the rest of your division is as well.

Malapropismic Depository Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 We could very well end up in first place. Dallas is a completely different team with Dalton. They might even be a 4-12 team now, or worse. If Ron is watching tonight's game, he must be thinking "Even I can beat these guys" Even football math says we win. Against common opponent, Arizona, we score more points and more TD's than Dallas, and allowed less points against us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dyst Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 We need to keep losing. I can absolutely see Eagles, Giants and Cowboys strongly considering Trevor Lawrence if any of those teams get the #1 pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want no part of winning this division. It's a long-term loss, and gets us a good ol' curb stomping on National TV. Completely pointless and stupid.

Malapropismic Depository Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 Actually, even if we win Sunday, we won't be in first place. So that will be consolation to you guys. Because, even if we beat Dallas, then whoever wins the TNF game, will be in first place. This will be one of those rare weeks that's guaranteed not to have every NFCE team lose. Rather, there will be 2 winners this week, with 2 divisional games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malapropismic Depository Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 Ha, if only we still had Jay Gruden as coach, we could somewhat respectably win the division this year, with one of his reliable 8-7-1 records ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommanderInTheRye Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 The number behind the number is strength of schedule. At .489 we currently have the second weakest sos of the top 10 contenders for the first pick. Given how weak our division is this year our sos should keep us in contention as long as we continue to lose games. The winless Jets (.589 sos) have played a relatively tough schedule so far and with one win will tumble way down the draft order list. The sleeper team could be the Chargers. They’d be “ahead” of us if they hadn’t already had their bye as their sos is currently only .472. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDawg Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 Chargers getting the pick of ahead of us isn’t a huge deal unless they look to trade back. My guess is they’d keep it and take Sewell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malapropismic Depository Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 At least Cincy has improved. They've gone from 1st pick to 10th. We've gone from 2nd pick, to 2nd pick. What a strange year - one pick behind the 1st overall, while one game behind 1st place at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Bolts land the #1 pick, I'd trade down if I were them and take BPA (Parsons, Chase, etc). They'd get a windfall and would still get an impact player.

Warhead36 Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 Chargers have played good football and will only do better as Herbert gets more experience. They aren't a threat for the #1 pick. Neither are the Falcons, Vikings, or Texans. All those teams can score points and teams that can score points are always a threat to win. The sleeper team are the Jaguars. They've been awful as well, and outside of the Jets and the NFC Least are probably the worst team in the league. And no new coach will be loyal to Minshew a former 6th round pick(who's been bad the last couple games I believe). And they also have a tough schedule.

Burgundy Yoda Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 Patriots need to do some 4-D chess and let the Jets beat them. Take one for the team so they don't have Lawrence in their division for the next 10 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
