I believe Tankathon also projects the records of all 32 teams in their remaining five or so games.  That is where the projection comes in.  But as I said, you may be right.

No Matt, they don't project.  They use actual records and adjust every week.

The Eagles SoS on their site is shown as .481

As you can see, it's base on the records through week 13 of the teams on their schedule.

Very high quality media release by the Eagles.

 

 

 

If Christian Ellis is elevated, he may be the back up MIKE against the giants with Bradley out.  Who replaces Bradley on return coverage STs this week?

With Blankenship, it looks like he's got instincts in pass coverage, can hit, and can tackle.  You don't want to ask him to turn and run with a WR downfield though.  

From there, it's on the DC to isolate matchups and responsibilities that harness those strengths and minimize his limitations.

Who does New Orleans beat in the coming weeks?

Atlanta w/Rudder at QB and Carolina at home week 18. And believe me I hope I am wrong.

I could see Carolina winning that game. They usually play the saints tough even when they suck. Plus i think darnold was still better than walker and baker for them. Panthers have won 2 of 3 vs. the saints.

My computer crashed so I can’t provide a table, but here is the Saints’ numbers

Falcons 5 -8

Bucs 6-6

Panthers 4-8

Vikings 10-2

Seahawks 7-5

Bengals 8-4

Cardinals 4-8

Raiders 5-8

Ravens 8-4

Steelers 5-7

Rams 4-9

49ers 8-4

Bucs 6-6

Falcons 5-8

Browns 5-7

Eagles 11-1

Panthers 4-8

Which totals to 105 wins and 105 losses = .500

However, Tankathon shows the Saints’ SOS AS .505.  Why the difference?

note, the discrepancy for the Rams is less .495 vs .496, but it exists nonetheless 

Further, the record of the Saints remaining 4 opponents is 25-24 while the Rams’ opponents is 21-28.  How does Tankathon factor that ease of remaining schedule into its calculations.  It would appear that the Rams have better win opportunities than the Saints.  That is a significant wild card in their model.

Your pessimism is showing.  If those teams play 10 times how many wins do each get?

I’m a glass half empty guy. Like I said I hope I’m wrong.

Fair enough.  I predicted 13 wins and a tie for this season, so half empty doesn’t appear often in my thinking.

The Cardinals are 4-8, not 8-4, and you left out the Niners.  To your last point, Tankathon does not have a 'model'.

Thanks for the explanation.  As I said my computer crashed so my calculations are by hand.  I had 105 and 105.  The typos you correctly pointed out were not in my hand written list.  

Sitting in McDonald’s drive thru. $100 says my order is wrong 

Looks for some rain in the forecast on Sunday. We’ll see if turnovers end up being a factor. Eagles are significantly superior, Eagles are gonna have to turn it over a lot for the giants to win most likely.

Off this one is hard to watch...not!

 

Works for me, Carter being picked as the first non-QB only increases our luck at Anderson.
