While yes they don't have a good record against teams with winning records, today was heartening as the O played very well against the #4 D. I was frankly skeptical ahead of today's game given the O's (esp Allen) struggkes against teams with win records, but I feel a lot better right now than I did yesterday 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mykidsdad Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 A lot of good teams have bad losses. At least we're not there. We are winning the games we're "supposed to" and not every "good" team does that. We just need two more! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giuseppe Tognarelli Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 I mean, there's no doubt in my mind that if you swapped Allen for Brady this season, the Patriots' record would be the same and the Bills' record would be worse. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thurman#1 Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 I've never really much bought into ELO. 7 hours ago, matter2003 said: Here is a better explanation https://fivethirtyeight.com/methodology/how-our-nfl-predictions-work/ So they use QBR, a number that is already very questionable, before performing a number of calculations on it that they are creating from scratch? And this year is their tryout year for the QB portion of this rating? Still not much buying it. Looks like it was fun to create, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
