2025 NFL Season Thread: Can Uncle Rico save the Broncos or will they be Nixed?
Greetings friends.
Those of you who know me know me as a Niners fan full of fantastical levels of vitriol and rage. I hav
yeah seen that before
was quite the moment in world football
Bork’s shoulder is ****ed and Kittle out 3-5
Existence is pain
Being at expectation sounds good in theory, until you look at all of the other good to great coaches beating expectation. Sample size is somewhat relevant, but the largest samples are all beating expectation, except John and Shanny. Sorry SRM. KOC at 100% is impressive too. Let’s see how that goes with a rookie level QB. I’d be interested in a strength of opponent a
not to cause hysteria or be a prick
but it would be interesting to see this data also presented as a graph over time
starting by shortly charting individual loss or win via red or green for the weekend fixtures and from there should only be a quick trip via gravity toward looser bets
We're back, folks.

At least swap MIA and NE, so when they lose next week, I can convince myself it was to a better team.
Swap Chiefs and Chargers. Otherwise pretty damn good.
This is the first year in a long time where I'm not saying 'Chargahs too high', Herbert looked unreal and if they just let him chuck they'll do well.
Not sure the Jags beating one of the worst teams in the NFL is enough to put them at 17. Bengals put up seven yards of offense in the second half, Browns defense is obvoiusly great but I don't know how they start so damn slow every single year
I'd say the bottom 3 are their own separate tier of suck but lol that's a nitpick. Pretty solid list.
Texans, Steelers, Jags might be all too high.
Hate saying this, but Cowboys too low.

Two guys that will forever be connected in infamy at the bottom.
