Week 15 Updated SoS and Rooting Guide to Top Pick


Seamonk

Recommended Posts

Updated SoS post Monday Night Games:

Cincy: .587

Carolina: .591

I'll post an excel file on google doc Wednesday night so people can track it themselves with a guide. After Wednesday I'm gonna be out of the country on Holiday so whoever else wants to use it and do it every week can.

I'd have to say, Even if the Bengals lose against the Browns, it'll count as 2 wins against their strength of schedule since they face the browns twice making the browns a "harder" team in terms of record.

Week 15 Rooting Guide:

Thu

SF@SD

Reason: SD Appears on their schedule. SF on ours. SD win means our SoS gets weaker and theirs stronger.

Sun

1pm

BUF@MIA

Reason: Wash. Both appear on their schedule once. Neither on ours.

DET@TB

We don't play Detroit. We do play Tampa. Tampa win would count against us twice since they're a division opp. Doesn't affect Cincy

ARI@CAR

I'll leave this up for debate. We CAN win this with Cincy still losing. We only play ARI once and it'll lower our SoS slightly since it'll add a loss to our schedule as well and Cincy losing would increase their SoS since it's a division opponent. However, standings come first and Leaving draft position up to a constantly changing Tiebreaker is risky.

NO@BAL

BAL win gives us 1 win (BAL) and 2 Losses (NO), and 2 wins and 1 loss for Cincy.

JAC@IND

Indy only appears on Cincy's schedule.

PHI@NYG

Giants were on our schedule. Not Philly.

CLE@CIN

Even though a CLE win would strengthen their SoS. SoS is only a tiebreaker. Standings come first.

HOU@TEN

Wash. Neither affects.

WAS@DAL

Wash. Neither affects.

KC@STL

We play STL. Neither team played KC. STL loss helps us more.

4pm

ATL@SEA

Would only add 1 win and 2 loss, vs 2 wins 1 loss. Only affects us.

NYJ@PIT

See Above. Only affects Cincy

DEN@OAK

Wash. Affects neither.

8pm

GB@NE

NE on their schedule. Neither on ours.

Mon

CHI@MIN

Only affects us.

    • Agreed on the last part. They can’t afford to lose all these games with Martin and Perets. 
    • Yes.  And this converts directly to confidence.  Does the coach have confidence to call a deep dig or seam route?  Does Bryce have confidence in his ability to be the Alpha?  Do his teammates have confidence.  About film--when I see Cam Newton's pre-snap confidence vs. Bryce's, it is night and day.   Film--tells you if the WRs are open (why l love watching the Replay telecasts from the end zone cameras--you can see it.  I have seen 2 WRs open and Bryce's eyes are on the outlet WR or the pass rush. )  You can see progressions, and he has improved a bit--but he is very quick to rush through 1 and 2 and checkdown--that is a lack of confidence in his ability to read the defense.  I had a former NFL TE (Deems Maye) who played QB in high school (not sure about college) tell me that the best QBs read the defense by knowing where everyone will be when the ball is to arrive--not where they are.  I think his QB at the time was Humphries.  He said that Humphries would throw the ball into coverage before the cuts etc.  because he understood DB momentum, zone areas, etc.  and he could just see it.  Said so when people say nobody was open, they are usually right because nobody should be "open" when the QB has the ball--when the ball arrives, everyone should be open.  He said Humphries was never "great" but his skills were limited--from a small school--but his ability to read a defense made him never give up on a route.
