Sunday night football and the law of averages.

Your decimal places are off, but I know you mean 16%. Not sure how much stock you put from games in the 60s or 70s, I believe they are unrelated events to games in 2012 and should be ignored.

Lol ya my decimals are off. Can't put stock into past but definitely a ton of pressure riding on RG3 with the secondary woes his team has. If he wins I tip my hat to him and the effort his club has made as of late.

Dallas will win and I will go a step further. Dallas will win the Conference and play the Broncos or Patriots in the SuperBowl. And no I am not a Cowboys fan. I am a Dolphins fan and we stink.

well it looks like you really thought this one out, good job.

I am assuming Seattle will be licking there chops to play the boys inside and then on to Atlanta.

Figured I would ask the brains of the forum your opinion. I already wrote up why I like the Cowgirls tonight but nonetheless. It's being advertised that Romo is 1-5 in win or go home games. 16.666667%. Oddly enough espn is advertising the Cowboys are 2-10 since 2000 in week #17. Also 16.666667%. However nobody is mentioning that since 1961 when these two divisional team started playing each other twice a year (except 1 year) the redskins have only swept the boys 4 times. Good for 8.16326%. Seems to me the odds which locally dropped from -180 to -175 in favor of redskins sweeping. Is a little too good to be true. I have the Skins favored on paper by -4.5 to -6 depending how home field value is configured. I think the home team is being undersold because they really are not the favorite here.

I love that you carried your figures out to six decimal places to make it look as if there is some sort of math going on here.

No I was going to round up but wasn't sure how anal I needed to be to post in here. I wasn't going post three six's either. Just wanted some feed back is all from the clever people. The only math going on is how many fingernails I will chew during the game.

That is all small sample size nonsense and is essentially statistical noise

Dallas has about the same chance of winning the NFC as you have of becoming a certified Mensa member.

Yea Dallas has no shot...They are choke artists...Still confused as to why they're even considered "America's team" Hmm. Shouldn't America's team win a playoff game in 10+ years lol...
