As you may recall, in our team previews at the beginning of the year we took a shot at predicting each team's final record. Well, the tallies are in and John has taken the edge...barely.
John was a total of 105 games off for all teams in the league. I was a total of 106 games off for all teams in the league.
John hit the nail on the head with 3 teams, accurately calling Pittsburgh's 12-4 record, Tampa Bay's 9-7 record and Arizona's 9-7 record.
I only managed two correct predictions: Arizona at 9-7 and Denver at 8-8.
Counting the teams we got right, we both predicted 13 records within 2 games of their actual record.
The embarrassing part of this post comes in our playoff predictions.
John's Playoff Teams:
AFC:
Division Champs: New England, San Diego, Pittsburgh, Indianapolis
Wild Cards: Jacksonville, NY Jets
NFC:
Division Champs: Dallas, Seattle, New Orleans, Green Bay
Wild Cards: Washington, Detroit
Ian's Playoff Teams:
AFC:
Division Champs: San Diego, New England, Jacksonville, Pittsburgh
Wild Cards: Indianapolis, Buffalo
NFC:
Division Champs: Dallas, Green Bay, Seattle, New Orleans
Wild Cards: Washington, Arizona
John landed 3 of 12 playoff teams, and I managed slightly better with 4. Don't come to us for playoff predictions before the season happens. Ouch.
