AbsolutSurgen Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 There is nothing like a couple of big upset wins to get you excited about your team, and start getting (probably) unrealistic expectations about your team making the playoffs. I looked at the Raiders remaining schedule, and saw that 7 of their remaining 11 games are against teams that currently have sub-500 records (Chargers x2, Jets, Bengals, Titans, Jags, Broncos) -- I thought "Wow, they may actually have a shot at getting a wildcard spot". They have a real shot of winning 8-10 games (I recognize everything else I am about to say probably puts too much stock in the first 5 weeks of the season, and injuries, etc. can make a big impact on this). Next I looked at who else has a shot at a wildcard: Buffalo (currently 4-1): Their remaining games include: Dolphins x2, Jets, Redskins, Broncos, Steelers who have a combined 2 wins among them! They could be VERY mediocre and still win 10-12 games. Browns (Currently 2-2): Their remaining games include: Steelers x2, Bengals x2, Dolphins, Cardinals. They could easily win 9-10 games -- with potential upside. If the Steelers/Bengals/Dolphins/Jets are really as bad as they look through week 5, it gives a huge advantage to the better teams in the AFC East/North in terms of getting a shot at the Wild Card -- they each play a total of 6 of their games against these terrible teams. I don't recall a season with so many teams that appear to be this bad v(Bengals, Steelers, Dolphins, Jets, Cardinals, Redskins, Broncos). I think there is a real possibility of a 10-win team missing out on a Wild Card spot this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And they LOST to the Browns. I dunno, there seem to be a lot of REALLY bad teams this year. Do they all recognize that there is only 1 #1-overall pick in the draft?

Keyser_Soze Posted October 8, 2019 Author Share Posted October 8, 2019 I think we are just old enough to recognize that the NFL just sucks in general. The magic it once had as a kid is gone. Now it's shitty play, shitty players and your favorite players getting injured. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
