AE AE14 Launch & Discussion

[axis_miles03]

Have Crowman coming up soon. And if Danielz can knock you down as well then it will get very interesting.

Calling it 4 weeks out is dangerous

Very true but I'm banking on a clean sweep of the division to hold the crown on my head.

I also got through last season with an 8-3 record so I'm banking on that also

 

[twarby]

lots of tough games and lots of easy ones, lowest CR for a Thursday for me I think this season, mainly because I cbf sorting the rest out

 

[statsman74]

Next Duel Standings are here

I'll start looking at each of the divisions and write about who stands where and who's in the box seat for playoff qualifications soon...

is there a reason by the AJ Green division have only played 7 games?

 

[statsman74]

RE: Next Duel - now we're well into the season, any thoughts on the methodology of the allocation of entrants to divisions?

Not 100% sure but it looks like for this year teams with similar records have been grouped. Does that produce fair results? Hard to say, haven't looked at correlation of year to year results although there are some big positive and negative movements.

Personally next year I'd like to see the field seeded based on 2014 CR and then split evenly between divisions. But that's just my 5c.

Happy to hear alternative views. (happier to hear similar views too!)

FIRST MEETING:: Yes.. it's taken a lot of painstaking research to get this match up arranged courtesy of a new /fairer scheduling process.

[Osmodiar]

Very tough match up for me. I'm going to have to hit some roughies.

 

[exe ex machina]

My Week 9 HRS selections are in. Not just HRS, but the leading top score of the season. And this is only the beginning of an unprecedented 8-in-a-row HRSes.

 

[peterbuch74]

is there a reason by the AJ Green division have only played 7 games?

Methinks Woodson has missed a copy and paste off my spreadsheet

Distracted at the time… Anyway… All updated now. BE SURE to REFRESH your browser. TNF Week 9 only minutes away now.

Edit:

Three No-Shows: Bucketss, McGarnacle & Quin Stick all get NOR 1CR.

Notable selections: Only two Saints fans in the AE, JD & NDG, both TOP TEN CR, have picked the Black Cats (Low CR) almost everyone else in the TOP TEN taking the Saints. NOR lead 14-0 HT.

Feeling the pinch early: Sodapop & AC83 both have CARO double digits. Their respective opponents, Matt897 & Bloods_33 have NOR 5 & 1CR.

 

[Chadwiko]

Loving being one of only 2 people to go max CR on NO and my ND opponent goes CAR.

 

[Osmodiar]

****ing wasteful Panthers

 

[Chadwiko]

My Week 9 HRS selections are in. Not just HRS, but the leading top score of the season.

Not only mathematically impossible (I believe?), but also incredibly improbably given prior form.

For our Bigfooty NFL Board Podcast this week, we have a special from Woodson on the standings in ND so far, and the outlook for the rest of the year. Listen in, and enjoy his special Halloween themed AE logo!

[Island Bomber]

I can't believe how much l overrated the Chargers. Bought into the hype again

 

[JeffDunne]

GG the early leader.

Geaux GG.

LATE Game minor differentials:
SVEN Denver CR7 SF10
TCOL Denver CR9 SF11

NEW ENGLAND LEAD 27-7 HT
SAN FRAN 10-10 3Q

Note: QuinStick - McGarnacle & Bucketss scores adjusted.

 

[Woodson]

A blow to ND Beast mode (TCol) as the Patriots blowout his beloved Broncos 43-21 to deny TCol pegging back those two points. Sven is already 5-1 in games decided by 7 points or fewer. TCol will need to pull something with either his 8CR or 3CR for the SNF winner to have any chance. Rookie Boknows34 leads the HRS currently with 72pts but has Burningleviathan breathing down his neck.

 

[peterbuch74]

crowman_23 and I in a tight tussle...
58CR a piece
I've lost 24CR so far
Crowman_23 lost 25CR so far

I've got 8 and 1 CR left, he's got 7 and 1 CR left

Yet another close finish for me...

 

[Island Bomber]

What are you doing to me Blacky going for the Pats 6 CR. l thought for sure you'd go your Broncos, even at a low confidence.

[Blacky]

GG would just about be winning if he wasn't so delusional

 

[peterbuch74]

I know my boys

Had Pats myself for 3CR on Thursday, then changed on Saturday back to Broncos. Woke this morning and almost pulled the trigger back to Pats when I saw the weather...
