I've made the case that 24 points is the area where, if you score more you are likely to win games, if you score less you are likely to lose games. You can't isolate lopsided losses and then analyze that as a trend.

OK, as a trend, when your Defense gives up 34 or more YOU ALMOST ALWAYS LOSE. PERIOD.

There is another fact for you.

The thing is, a forum member was spouting records based on when opponents score more than 24 points. You and some others called that meaningless. It is NOT meaningless, and I've showed you why it is not meaningless.

So if you win 6-3, that is an outlier, but it doesn't void the overall trend that in MOST games, if you score more than 24 or hold opponents to under 24, you GENERALLY win.

I don't care if you gave up 34 or 94 points in your losses. The trend is the trend. It is why the metric of 24 points you call "meaningless" is valuable, not meaningless.

It is meaningless when we are discussing Alex Smith and the Chiefs.

The post I was responding to was Clay said we were 1-6 in games we gave up 24 points in last year.

He missed the fact Smith didn't start in the SD game. So Smith lost 5 games last season as a starter.

We gave up 34 points a game in those loses on average and scored over 25.

Everything I stated was accurate, 24 points is not relative to the discussion we were having.
