VABills Posted December 27, 2004 Posted December 27, 2004 Ummmm, no. We should have beaten JAX, and then all we'd have to do is win this weekend. 180587[/snapback] No. If we had beaten JAX we would have already secured a playoff spot.
CentralVaBills Posted December 27, 2004 Posted December 27, 2004 No. If we had beaten JAX we would have already secured a playoff spot. 180602[/snapback] So, if we would lose this weekend, and Denver would win, putting us both at 10-6? We would get in? We'd both have identical AFC records?
stuckincincy Posted December 27, 2004 Posted December 27, 2004 no, no, no... I'm thinking you get 1 point for a win in week 1, 2 in week 2, etc.... that may be extreme, but maybe it is 1, 1.1, 1.2, etc... That way, wins at the end count more than the beginning. I would rather see an 0-8 team become 8-8 and make the playoffs than a 8-0 team that goes 8-8. No BCS stuff, just a simple weighting that meakes each game worth more than the last. 180580[/snapback] But wouldn't that lead to sandbagging, holding players out early on, knowing that a late-season win is worth twice as much as in the first games? I understand your point, but it seems ripe for shenigans...and the betting mob would likely go nuts if not violent.

DieHardFan Posted December 27, 2004 Posted December 27, 2004 Real Games? No TBD Pool Games? DEFINITELY NO! [No OT, No MN Score and absolutely no perfect week add-on points !!!!!!!! ] {IM[Never]HO of course}
TigerJ Posted December 27, 2004 Posted December 27, 2004 I didnt even know there was a game Sunday night LOL 180396[/snapback] I think it was an intersquad scrimmage. I resembled the ones Buffalo has with the Browns in early August.
ATBNG Posted December 27, 2004 Posted December 27, 2004 no, no, no... I'm thinking you get 1 point for a win in week 1, 2 in week 2, etc.... that may be extreme, but maybe it is 1, 1.1, 1.2, etc...

No BCS stuff, just a simple weighting that meakes each game worth more than the last. 180580[/snapback] 100% no. Think of how unfair the scheduling could be Scott - teams getting in the playoffs just because they happend to catch a 3-13 team in week 17 who had already started making tee times. The current tiebreakers are the best solution, just like democracy is the best form of government amongst many bad choices.
