Since 1972 Posted April 22, 2012 Posted April 22, 2012 Heard on ESPN yesterday this tidbit of information. Just one of those things that makes ya go, hmmm. Here I was thinking a so called weaker schedule might improve our chances for post season play...guess we'll see.
section122 Posted April 22, 2012 Posted April 22, 2012 Think it was the cheat riots that have the easiest schedule this year. I believe the bills have the 4th easiest. So this is GOOD news!
Kelly the Dog Posted April 22, 2012 Posted April 22, 2012 I heard on ESPN last week that the 6th year of a trend is the most likely year for the trend to break, more than 2-1 over years 4-5 and strangely, 3-1 over year 3, which I consider to be an aberration. The thing I worry about is only if this 6th year is the 6th year of a different trend that would break that trend and counteract the first trend-breaking 6th year. It's hard to say for sure, but I think it's a lot like the "there is an exception to every rule" theory. If that were true, there would be an exception to that rule, and there would be one rule without an exception, except, of course, if the one rule without an exception was the rule that states there is an exception to every rule. Hmmmm...
Wayne Cubed Posted April 22, 2012 Posted April 22, 2012 Strength of schedule, before a down of football has been played this year, based on last years results.
BobChalmers Posted April 22, 2012 Posted April 22, 2012 Strength of schedule, before a down of football has been played this year, based on last years results. Sure - though it tends to correlate with the ultimate (after the fact) strength of schedule. Not precisely though, for sure. Look how lucky the AFC first-place teams got last year with Manning going down and the "tough" Colts suddenly being the "easiest" team in the league to beat. Still, would you rather be lined up against any other divisions this season more than the NFC West and AFC South??
