what is really funny is I quit posting the rankings because of people whining about them and rondo asked for them to come back on the help board

No one seems to be able to figure out week after week that it is just a stats ranking compilation, there is no human element to it whatsoever, the scores are not a factor because it is NOT A POLL. It is simply a compilation of how well you play in 6 categories and how that play ranks versus the rest of the league

THAT'S IT, there is nothing else to it but the monkeys on the MSB can't grasp the difference between a ranking and a poll so they just screech at anything and everything

I use this ranking to help me with my survivior pic'em. I narrow it down to three and use this to determine my best choice. It's worked so far.


I also like to read these threads and how much you (Supa) get your panties in a wad over other posters getting their panties in wad. It makes decent comedy.

Except that a very dumb human picked which stats to look at and how to haphazardly assign a point value from 1 to 32 marginalizing how much better some teams are than others and over separating teams in the middle with similar numbers, then using that crappy evaluation system as a judgement to rank the teams from 1 to 32.

It's a poll, and it's not a good one.

I think this is a good basis, but he should take it one step further and take into account the teams your played.

Look at how many yards Team B usually give up passing and compare that to how many yards Team A got against them. Then do this for the other 5 stats. That way if you blow out the Titans or Raiders or some other dogshit team it isn't as impressive as blowing out the Giants
