Hapless Bills Fan Posted December 19, 2019 Posted December 19, 2019 OK, once again for our penultimate edition of Net Points vs Wins, the thing I do every week to try to make the point that it doesn't matter too much how many points you score or how many points you give up - what it comes down to as the clock expires is "what is the difference?" The PoeBirds, NE****, and the 49'ers have both great offense, and great defense, are leading the field in point diff, and remain the teams to beat. For the rest: contrary to popular opinion which loves its offensive stats, there are three ways to succeed: -great offense, meh defense (NO) -great defense, meh offense (Bills) -above-average competence on both sides of the ball (Tenn - that 's them to the R of the Lambs but their label didn't copy) 2

We should be 8th, not 10th. Data from NFL.com It's just point differential/number of games, so 69/14 1

MJS Posted December 19, 2019 Posted December 19, 2019 Surprised the Seahawks are so low. Houston looks super beatable in the playoffs. 1 hour ago, SlimShady'sGhost said: when I looked at the ESPN standings earlier All I saw was points differential Bills + 69 [edit] 10 8th best points differential in the league ... what Hap posted ... too complicated for me to want to sort out Not rocket science...

Not rocket science... First off .... I work with rocket scientists ... secondly .... I was being sarcastic / joking thirdly ... I love 69 its so much cooler than saying the Bills margin of victory is 4.9 ppg Edited December 19, 2019 by SlimShady'sGhost

They have given up just over the league average ppg - one point more, 23.6 vs 22.6 They have scored 2 more points over the league average ppg, 24.4.

Taking off those points would pull the outliers (Poebirds, NE, SF) closer in to the pack but they would still be out in front by a long ways.

I think it bodes well going into the playoffs tbh...means the Bills' point differential is a fairly reliable indicator of where the team stands overall as ST/defensive TDs are largely sporadic and harder to predict (or rely upon)
r00tabaga Posted December 20, 2019 Posted December 20, 2019 LOL Dallas.......7 wins..... paper champs
