I'm extremely curious to see how that Cowboys game goes.

These are always dumb. Team plays who is on the schedule.
Playoffs are the real test anyways. Where everyone starts 0-0.
Op tossing out the big ZZZzzz...
Pff losers, they should have a losing record against BAD teams too.
Thats where its at
OK and?
Now tell me how many games the Eagles won by more than 1 posession
Toney also gifted them that win lol
they lost to the AFC leader, beat the last Super Bowl champion at home, and nearly won against a good Seahawks team pre-offensive implosion
still a good team at 8-2
We've beaten a couple of teams that had winning records at the time of the loss. We can't help the fact that losing to the Lions breaks the mentally weak.
We've also only had 2 division games, one of them being this past weekend, at this point, so the weak NFC north doesn't really matter in this argument. For whatever reason, the league decided to back load our season with division games
All i gotta say, last year when the eagles were killing an easy schedule no one said anything keep the same energy
Well somebody had to help them get that losing record.
How many had a winning record when they played and went to .500 or lower after a loss?
And what's the margin of victory against teams with a losing record?
Shut it down guys. It's Eagles/49ers, and Ravens/Chiefs in the CGs this year, no need to finish the season.
Sorry Browns, you almost made it. But you are .500, against teams that are .500 and above. You just missed the cut; you played yourself.
Oh no. They suck again
Don't want to be a negative Nancy but I'm pretty sure that the next 4 weeks will flip one of those 2 teams' record...
It’s almost like the schedule is made up by the NFL before the season starts and you can only play the teams that are already scheduled. They’ve also beaten up on a ton of teams and have played 2 bad games this whole season. Last weekend against the Bears in which they still rallied to win and a few weeks ago where were completely outclassed by the Ravens. This Lions team will go toe-to-toe with pretty much anybody.
Jags are 2-3 (wins over Buffalo and Pitt).
They're also 3-0 over teams that are .500 (2x colts and Saints), which feels relevant since they'd have a winning record without those losses. Which should also go for the rest of these teams.
Dolphins and Cowboys being 0-5 combined is more concerning.
Texans (6-4) are 2-1
Am I stupid? How are we 1-3 when we beat both the Steelers and the Bills?
Crazy to me that they've only played 3 teams with winning records.
Lions are good. The frauds argument is so overdone. I see it parroted in every single thread with someone thinking they are posting an original comment.
No Flair, don't care
Don’t take this away from us
Broncos are 3-2 against teams with a winning record.
But we're also 2-3 against teams with a losing record
So make of that however you will
I think the Lions are definitely a legitimately good team, however I think they are going to struggle to make a deep run in the playoffs.
The playoffs are just a different game entirely and they have no experience in those type of games yet.
The dolphins of the nfc
Don’t really see the point to this statistic tbh. Obvs I’m biased, but you could easily include the end of last season too since it’s basically the same team
The Dolphins have yet to beat a team with a winning record.
The lions should have simply asked the league to predict the future when making the schedule, so that the lions would never play any bad teams.
They're good. I only wonder if Goff is gonna struggle in the playoffs like he did his last year or so with the Rams. Should be a tough out regardless.
Very good post. Very "hmmmm" inducing.
Vikings are 6-5
Their losses? One was vs the Chiefs. One was vs the Eagles and despite playing on the road on a short week (Thursday game) and despite a JJ touchdown becoming a touchback they lost by 1 score. They fucked up against the Chargers and Broncos and should have won but barely lost, the Broncos game was influenced heavily by refs (early 'fumble' that led to a field goal when no flag was thrown but the league still suspended the player for 4 games for his hit on the QB afterwards. Would have been a 1st down instead of a turnover and they lost by 1).
But they haven't beaten anyone really good. They beat the saints and falcons and packers and bears and shit. the week 16 and 18 games against the Lions are gonna be the real tests for the division.
Vikings fans haven't gotten over losing to the Giants in the playoffs, I see
They will probably win 3 of those 4 games. Cowboys of course will be real test if they are play off material.
Shhhhh
Yeah well we will be back to .500 (1-1) against them after the Seahawks lose a couple more games. So joke is on you.
What I’m taking away from this is that the Cowboys are flat track bullies who can’t beat a winning team
What are some of the mid teams like? I know the vikings are 3-2 against teams with a .500 or above record, but I’m curious about everyone else around our stratosphereu
Ok? Meanwhile a bunch of fraud ass teams are up there too.
Didn't Lions finish 3rd in their division last season? So of course their 3 random games will be against bad teams. Not sure if they've played those teams yet.
If Kelce and Chris Jones played in week one they would be 7-3 and 0-3 with teams over.500…no way they win at Arrowhead.
We had this shit said to us all last year, and we made it to the dance while hanging around until the final minute.
You can only play and beat the teams in front of you. You win some. You lose some.
Haven’t they been through enough? Cmon, let them have it.
Cowboys-Dolphins on Christmas eve is going to be a tie, isn't it?
Also, it looks like we are going to have a bird-bowl this year.
It should still get them to the playoffs. That’s still a huge win regardless of how they got there
