Fields is a poor man's Hurts, and Dallas did a pretty good job defensively against the eagles. Shame about their offense, though. Also, in the NFC here are the current strength of schedule numbers: Above or at 0.500: Lions: 0.650 Packers: 0.583 Cowboys: 0.565 Commanders/Cardinals: 0.522 Bears: 0.521 Rams: 0.512 Saints: 0.500 Below 0.500: Giants 0.479 Eagles/Vikings: 0.475 Bucs: 0.476 49ers/Panthers: 0.458 Falcolns: 0.438 Seahawks: 0.370 I think the NFC north and Dallas suffer from having to play the NFCE. Commanders also have to play the NFCE and are up there.  the seahawks have a cupcake schedule.

really queer Christmas posted:The poor lions The play the NFCE and the AFCE this year. Their 17th game is the Jags. Their same finish as last year opponents are the Seahawks and the Panthers. The easiest games they have remaining are just the Bears, Packers, and Panthers. Just a murderous schedule. If you can find three sure wins in the rest of their season, you're a bolder person than I.

C-Euro posted:I never know how much stock to put into SOS because yeah it makes sense that teams with bad records have high SOS, they keep losing so their opponents have more combined wins! And of course, the inverse is true for teams with good records. Last year: AFC SoS for Playoff teams above 0.500: Chiefs: 0.538 Raiders: 0.510 Steelers: 0.521 NFC: 49ers: 0.500 The only AFC team with a harder SoS than the Chiefs last year was the Ravens (0.531), who finished 12th of 16. The highest SoS NFC team was the Giants at 0.536 followed closely by Washington at 0.529. Yes, by construction teams with winning records are typically going to have SoS below those teams with bad records. However, it is still indicative of difficulty of schedule. It isn't the best, though, for reasons such as yours, which is why it is not the top tiebreaker. It isn't irrelevant, and outliers do definitely tell a story. The Lions and Seahawks are major outliers right now, and a quick glance at their schedules explains it. The Lions are playing almost every single good team this year and the Seahawks are playing almost every bad team this year. C-Euro posted:E: the funny thing about Detroit is that some of the excited chatter going into this season was fuels by a belief that they would have a relatively soft schedule this year. Now people are saying they have the hardest schedule in the league this year and you all wonder why us Lions fans are so beat down. It never ever ends. The joys of parity.

C-Euro posted:Parity is when your team hasn't won a title since Eisenhower was in office I meant that which teams are best and worst in any given year is not certain year to year. There are a few notable exceptions, but each year there are teams that were poo poo the previous year that are great and teams that were great that turned to poo poo.

Remember when Ray Rice's victim apologized for her role in getting knocked out cold in an elevator only to have her lifeless body dragged out to door and to their room?

If they were running against college players they’d still look hilarious.
