[QUOTE="OldSchool101, post: 876671, member: 10086"] Well, with all due respect. “Anecdotal” stories don’t use factual example that support the desired end result of a “SuperBowl” Win. Correct me if now according to HRE.. SuperBowl victories are now just whimsical story lines. What planet are you on,. youre in a ProFootball Talk Site.. what’s more compelling than winning a SB? Ahhhh. It’s an “anecdote” if it doesn’t support your “opinion” ;) So your opinion trumps facts that are consistent with winning a SB. Gotcha! But That doesn’t give me lots of confidence in your argument. But what’s even more interesting? is you then you turn around and use the New England Patriots and KC as an example? when they both factually support my point of using SOS. [B] Another Fact[/B]: NE started with a relatively [B]WEAK[/B] schedule (well under sub .500) and their D was breaking historic records!! then,.. the Strength of opponent gets gradually tougher as the season progresses .. what happened next? What was the SOS for Tennessee exactly? #9 toughest overall. 49ers? #11 toughest overall. KC?? Tied for #5th toughest GB? #14 and NE #27 and both get found out in playoffs! Clear as day Merely coincidental “anecdotes”. NE is immediately knocked out of the playoffs.. immediately. Their (NE) SOS was **** poor (the evidence works both ways) throughout the whole season. KC you said ranked #6 (actually it’s tied at #5 at 0.52) Tough opponents=tough team. Why else would they have that metric HRE? It’s used as one of many measures to predict strength of opponent. SOS has been largely accurate more often than not, including 2019 where it aligns nicely. [/QUOTE]
