I suspect one random week will wipe out most of us. If you're flow chart isn't "Is the team playing the Lions or the Texans? -> Yes -> Have you picked them already -> No", then you're fucking up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted October 25, 2021 Author Share Posted October 25, 2021 Yeah - but I dont expect this Lions team to go 0-17 - like for example, I could easily see them beating the Eagles And that flow chart should contain the Jets - especially with Zack Wilson out Of course that means believing in the Bengals 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hadn't even been keeping track of the Lions, only learned this week they hadn't won, my general strategy has been whoever is playing the Jets or Texans. If I haven't picked either of their opponents, I decide which is more likely to have a fluke upset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, I knew they were bad, but didn't realize they hadn't won at all. Possibly because I don't think I've actually watched a minute of any NFL game so far. I took a look at who I've picked against so far, and I've spread it around more than I figured. Six teams in seven weeks, with the only repeat offender being Houston.

As loath as I am to say this, but you may want to start including Miami on there, especially if the rumors are true and they start selling off pieces like Xavien Howard. Oh, and look at that website I mentioned earlier. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Wilson Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 I agree with the flowchart, its a solid strategy. But usually by now, that 'shitty team that always loses' has a random ass win (remember the Jets beating the Titans??) that knocks out half the league.

RIPPA Posted October 25, 2021 Author Share Posted October 25, 2021 The NFL loves to try and pimp parity but god bless is it not anymore 9 teams have 5 or more wins right now (so 5-1, 5-2, 6-1, 7-0) 10 teams have 2 or fewer wins right now including a winless team and 4 teams with only 1 win 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
