I'm testing the theory that I can make the equivalent of computer monkeys do as well as the so called experts. I can't find Peter King's yet and if anyone has his final standings please post it. Prisco actually has some teams moving around which is more realistic. Prisco is getting to the point that people tend to not move teams around much and assume every game is going to be like 21-14.

My final standings. The Carolina result is mostly pure random variance not me manipulating the model.

Atlanta 11-5? That is too funny. I actually like Prisco but he is going to definitely get pied in the face on that one. He is overestimating Atlanta because of the loss of Julio last year. But their problems were much greater than 1 wideout who was injured. We will finish ahead of them.

Lol at Prisco thinking the Falcons will win 11 games...all signs point to 6 wins or less. They lost all their games WITH Julio Jones last season and that was with a Tony Gonzalez at TE.

And their defense got worse...ok Pete.

They added some big guys in the draft and FA. But their secondary isn't great and losing TG will hurt. I don't see it either. The media worships their QB too much.

 

Having said that I would be surprised if both ATL and TB stink again.

And why would the rams finish with a better record than us when they play in a tougher division and are missing a quarterback? He's just throwing darts at a dart board.

He is actually. His is taking a score from week 1 2013 and assigning it to a matchup in week 1 of 2014. We are losing to the Bucs 49-27 because the Broncos beat the Ravens by that score last year.

No offense HP but regardless of results,  I think all of these exercises in predicting not only records but individual game scores are beyond ridiculous.

 

To do so with any accuracy is basically impossible. Even if it were just predicting over under win totals.

 

I've just been fooling around with a model*. Hope to have it refined enough one day to gain some sort of betting edge

      Noah Fant? "Perfect fix?" More like imperfect fix.

      I am curious to see if Warren is the elite player that the Huddle Warren stans believe. I am always fairly wary of these first round TE's.

      The Rossi things isn't going away, either... https://www.thescore.com/nhl/news/3312416/unfinished-business-7-players-to-watch-in-back-half-of-nhl-offseason The Wild and Rossi shouldn't be having any trouble hammering out an extension. Rossi, an RFA turning 24 in September, recorded the second-most points on the team last season (60 in 82 games). The smart, skilled, highly competitive 5-foot-9 Austrian is a homegrown top-six center. Minnesota has $10 million in cap space and no other significant spots to fill to finalize its 2025-26 roster. Problems lurk below the surface, however. Coach John Hynes demoted Rossi to the fourth line in the playoffs, dropping his nightly usage from 18 minutes in the regular season to 11 in the first-round series loss to Vegas. GM Bill Guerin's top to-do list item at the moment is to lock up Kirill Kaprizov. The superstar winger, who's been eligible for an extension since July 1, is due for Leon Draisaitl-type money (around $14 million average annual value) starting in 2026-27. Guerin has said there's no rush to sign, trade, or match an offer sheet for Rossi. If he stays, a short-term extension makes sense, since it gives both player and team flexibility. If he leaves, a trade is far more likely than an offer sheet. Half of the league could use a second-line center, and Rossi still has upside. The Hurricanes desperately need to upgrade at 2C (Jesperi Kotkaniemi isn't going to cut it) and have plenty of cap space. Ditto for the Sabres, who picked Jack Quinn one spot before Rossi went to the Wild in the 2020 draft. Mammoth bench boss Andre Tourigny coached Rossi in junior, and they don't have as much wiggle room, but trading top-six winger Nick Schmaltz (plus a pick) could make the math work. Guerin wants to make a so-called "hockey trade" here.
