/nfl/ MARGIN PREDICTOR 2016

week 1 is done, so on to week 2. the goal is to pick how many points you think teams will win by and get as close as possible to the actual result, and I'll tally up your points every week and post a small leaderboard of the top scorers.

how many points you get for each pick depends on how close you were:
>0 off: 5 points
>1-3 off: 4 points
>4-7 off: 3 points
>8-10 off: 2 points
>11-14 off: 1 point
>15+ off: no points
then multiply that by how confident you were in your pick. the maximum score you could get is 240 in a week, and 3840 in a season.

>Name
put here what you want your entry to be listed as if I end up posting your score. if you leave it blank, then I'll just use Anonymous.

>ID Code
put anything you want here, as long as it's the same every week. I'll be the only one that sees it, it just lets me know that you're the same guy that played last week using that code.

>Matchup
simply pick who you think wins that game.

>Margin
enter how many points you think they will win by. it has to be a whole number and can't be negative.

>Confidence
put either 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 here based on how confident you are that you'll get the margin right for that game.

>you can only have 48 total confidence points. if you go over, I will randomly discredit one of your highest-confidence games until you're at or under 48. you'll get no points for that game.
>if your ID Code is submitted twice, only the most recent one counts
>only entries submitted before the start of the first game count
>leaderboard of the top 10 scorers will be posted after the MNF game
>taking suggestions for what to rename this game, because Margin Predictor is bland and dumb

someone who's got more screencaps needs to edit this to update the score

threadly reminder

sup xeattle bandwagon. I am sure you were a "Diehard 12" before 2012.

What the fuck did this guy expect? What kind of entitled doucher expects a shitty cast off team to suddenly be competitive after an offseason where they made no improvement?

...

Can we talk about just how good the 49ers defence looked?

I know the Rams have been among the most incompetent teams in the NFL since 06 but Reid, Ward, Brock, Beathea, Bowman and Armstead all had big games. I could be wrong but the defence didn't have a single penalty and the offence didn't have one until the 4th quarter

They're probably not going to be a playoff team but this will be an interesting team to watch especially if Kaep starts soon

>tfw we have an owl

Texans-lions Superbowl when?

to be fair they usually play the 49ers tough and the 49ers aren't expected to be very good either

i give him props for still being there

just say no

Gimme Josh Gordon 2bh

How did the Patriots lose rating after beating a good team away without several starters?

There seems to an overall net minus of about 0.3 per team so it seems like people were just harsher overall but it's still weird.

these look fantastic
whose should I buy?

Gordon is all they have left to sell tickets

We'll trade you Davante Adams.

Rivers can work with anyone as long as they're competent. He's wasting his talent on a team that won't even try to help him.

I would recommend Mexican food, but I don't know if the EC has good Mexican food.

I live in Arizona, so that it's literally everywhere.

>He's wasting his talent on a team that won't even try to help him.

Wouldn't be a first for the Chargers.

I own a Mike Williams and Lofa Tatupu jerseys, so yes.

>On October 18, 2015 against the New England Patriots, Indianapolis coach Chuck Pagano called for a fake punt on 4th and 3 late in the third quarter with the Colts trailng 27-21. The play left Whalen snapping the ball to Colt Anderson with no Colts teammates blocking and two Patriots players standing over the ball. The play was stopped for a loss, the Patriots took over on downs and scored a touchdown en route to a 34-27 victory. The play was questioned by numerous NFL experts and players from around the league.[7] Just a week later, Whalen created a second disastrous special teams play, when he fumbled on a kick return which led to a touchdown in a game against the New Orleans Saints

>chorgers

I think the Packers deserve to be #1, and the Lions should be below the Colts.

>Chuck Pagano
>Chargers

Hmmm

...

I think the Rams should be last because they were worse than the Browns.

Really makes you think

But ESPN didn't do that.

>28. Dolphins

bad rankings

idk why people are just realizing that defense is good. Their only weak spot is corner.

Watch me get dubs

Is this Sup Forums?

hey I can do that too

Why
Anybody else would be better

Gotta disagree, after Monday night the steelers should be number 1, and despite them trying to lions themselves out of a win, detroit should be higher than the Colts due to Matt Staffords excellent performance

Born in Olympia and work in Bellevue

>our fans are shitty bandwagoners so every team must be
>people bandwagon teams without Super Bowl wins

This meme has been around for to long now. If you were on Sup Forums 2010 and before then you would know that the Seahawks used to be Sup Forums underdogs that most people on here likes

>Lions should be below the Colts

dumbest thing posted in months

>when you realize knee is a colts fan infiltrated in our ranks

watch me

>biggest margin of victory

>after Monday night the steelers should be number 1

After beating the Redskins...

Tell that to ESPN.

>biggest victory for the city

So noone goes to ESPN? Thank God it's now just me...

>MFW people underestimate the Cowboys this hard
>MFW Cowboys lost by literally one point after a poor late-game decision that ran out the clock
>MFW Cowboys are playing the fucking R******s this week and will blow them out

The skins are an ok team, not horrible but not great. Pittsburgh so thoroughly dominated them, with brown on the pass and ancient D'Angelo on the run, they didn't even need Bell. Looked better than any other team this week, so I think they deserve the number 1 spot.

There are tons of bandwagon fans here...tons. I moved in here in '98 and there was nowhere near the amount of Seahawk love that there is since the SB win. It got crazy during the run up to that Steeler SB but the amount of asspain from that loss took a lot of wind out of the sails.

>mfw the Cowboys are winners at finding new ways to lose

That's circumcising the 'skeeter.

Well they are retarded. They moved the lions and several other teams down for winning, and moved the cowboys up 5 fucking spots for losing, and the bucs jumped 10 whole spots.

>looking better than a team who won 28-0
Try again senpai

And now their ranks have swelled with kids and pretentious Seattle citizens that say that they've liked them all along
My nephews born and raised in Wisconsin say Seahawks are their favorite team
Even Seahawks fans shouldn't like Seahawks fans

Who /killingthemself/ here

Fair enough.

I don't think the Pats should be 1, but not that the Steelers should be 1, necessarily.

The only reason I don't think Pats should be 1 is due to how close it was and that it was the first start for Jimmy G.

Not sure who I'd put at 1, however.

triple 7s deliver

>1983

like millenials care

After the Rams' performance I'm ready to die.

Pass rush and CB was a huge unknown. I think their Safeties will cover for any weakness from the CBs and the pass rush still wasn't great but Buckner didn't play and they still got a couple of coverage sacks

I mean I picked them over the Rams but It's just surprising just how good they looked considering most people thought this was a bottom 2 team in the NFL

>mfw none of that matters
>mfw Giants will be the only 2-0 NFC East Team next week

>get blown out

CJA

I knew they were going to be shit from the beginning as I liked them while they were in St. Louis but holy shit this might be as bad if not worse than 2009.

this, the problem last year was a combination of scheme (fuck you mangini) and no depth, which fucked us over in injuries. on a pure talent basis though, it's a middle-tier defense at worst. and right now, the only real injury of note is ian williams, but purcell and dorsey seem to be filling in fine.

>posts irrelevant championship nobody in this thread remembers

wew lad

2bhwy I thought you guys would be the train wreck this season but I must say I'm thoroughly impressed with how well you did.
I remember it and the one in 80 as well.

>There seems to an overall net minus of about 0.3 per team
every year at the end of the season, about half of the league has a losing record

every year before the season starts, about 75% of the league's fans think they'll go 8-8 or better

having a net average loss in points just means people are starting to fall back to earth after preseason hype, now that we have real games that matter to look at.
