That is the definition of a homer, picking them to win every game lol
Even if they were playing 8 worst teams in the NFL in the first 8 weeks, you still gotta predict a loss here and there. This is the NFL, not college football.

The Colts have started four of the last five seasons 14-0, 8-0, 9-0, and 13-0, respectively. Last year the Saints started 13-0. The Titans were 10-0 two years ago. The Patriots were 18-0 a few years ago for goodness sake. I'd say it's more of a rarity for there NOT to be at least one top team that wins their first eight games.SportsAndLady;532870 wrote:It is a rarity.
Just because there have been multiple teams make the playoffs after starting 2-5, doesn't mean I'm going to predict them to do so.

SportsAndLady;532931 wrote:There is a HUGE difference in saying its a rarity that a team will go 8-0, and one specific team will go 8-0.
Like you said, the last 3 seasons we've had a team go 8-0. It's a rarity this year that there is not a 7-0 team.
But it is definitely a rarity to name one specific team to go 8-0 and then they actually do it.

The statistics? You mean like the odds of them winning being in their favor so far every game?SportsAndLady;532939 wrote:No matter what you say, it is not practical to expect them to be 7-0 right now.
The statistics are against it, so how can it be practical?
SportsAndLady;532941 wrote:Because less than 5% of teams the last 5 years have gone 7-0 to start the season, so you have to think there's a 95% chance they are not 7-0. Play those percentages, and you'll look less like a homer/tard.

Hb31187;532951 wrote:WHAT PART OF ME PICKING A SINGLE GAME BY GAME FOR THEM TO WIN IS SO HARD FOR YOU TO COMPREHEND. I didnt start a thread that said the Falcons are gonna start 7-0. Look at it game by game basis and then tell me im delusional.... and you'll be wrong
