As promised, and in spite of my sheer and utter apathy this year, here are the statistical measures that I am predicting for this season which will go up prior to game time on Sunday.
Anyone interested in going toe-to-toe with me on these please add your own. I just finished some of them and some I haven't even done yet, so it's not as if I've been working on these for weeks. It's been less than 12 hours, so we're all on the same playing field here.
So for all of you that think I have my head up my arse, let's see your bold predictions in advance and side-by-side. They won't be published unless you want them to be.
I expect some that talk the most trash w/o laying themselves out to check their nads at the door, but for the rest, let's just have fun with this in what at least I'm figuring to be a bleak season.
Here are the cats:
Feel free to add more if you like.
For the first half team rankings, I am ranking +/- 2 in rankings against the rest of the league, not specific tallies or numbers. In other words, for the first one, Rush D yards, if you think the Bills will finish ranked 20th of 32 in the league, then you'd put 18-22 allowing you a +/- of 2 ranking spots. The lowest therefore is 28-32nd and the highest 1st-5th.
For the second part, it's the actual figures for each player or the team following the players portion.
Again, feel free to add more. I tried to include the relevant and fundamental indicators and not those that are derivatives/residuals of others.
Anyway, have at it. I'll come back prior to game time on Sunday, or early during the game, and download those for all that have contributed. Let's see who ponies up!
If you have any questions, e-mail me. Also feel free to e-mail me your predictions as well if you don't want them on here publicly.
At the end of the season we'll tally the results in a contest of sorts.
