Playoff chances, seeds, rooting guide, etc.
I always think it's fun to watch how our playoff chances shift from week to week as we get closer to the end of the year. Though we don't have cdcox's software to play with this time around, there are a number of websites you can use to get a similar idea of how things will work out.
A couple resources I like: 538.com's predictor updates after very game, includes game win probabilities and probabilities for a variety of playoff scenarios. Based on an Elo model that (if I understand it correctly) basically just looks at end-of-game score differentials compared to predicted differentials to arrive at a power rating of sorts. The New York Times has a simulator kind of like what cdcox's software used to do. It's based on Sagarin ratings, which have a complicated methodology that isn't even entirely known, but it's some sort of model. The nice thing about this one is that you can mess with scenarios to see how they impact our odds. Feel free to post other resources, power rankings, whatever. I mostly just want a place for me to post my random thoughts about the possibilities! |

Marion Barber, I think that was. Teams played like absolute idiots against the Broncos that year. Tebow never should have been a thing.

How the hell is Denver getting the # 1 seed when they're going to lose to the Bengals and Chargers?

Here you go, with a bye locked up ... the Patriots will give some thought to resting the starters @ Jets and/or @ Dolphins. Which is to say, they very likely won't rest them. But, who knows. One can hope... doesn't matter though if Denver doesn't pull their head out and change the course of the last few weeks. It's set up very well for them, now it's time for them to act like they want it more than the fans want it.

Frazod hasn't been a B-cup since his pre-teen years.
