    THE BROWNS ODDS OF MAKING THE PLAYOFFS WITH THE 1-2 START   FWIW, I just ran across this and thought I would give it a try and see what happens.  https://www.footballoutsiders.com/stats/playoffodds

    It appears to be FREE to sign up and get more detailed information.    *** NOTE:.  THIS WILL BE UPDATED AS THE SEASON MOVES ALONG. ***

    Revised as of 09/24/19, through Week 3.

    Compiled by Mike Harris

    The playoff odds report plays out the season 30,000 times. A random draw assigns each team a win or loss for each game. The probability that a team will be given a win is based on an equation which considers the current DAVE ratings of the two teams as well as home-field advantage. (DVOA ratings are explained here.) Mean Wins is the average number of wins for this team over the 30,000 simulations. Odds are given for winning each playoff seed, as well as for winning the division (DIV), earning a bye week (BYE), or winning a wild card (WC). TOT represents odds of making the playoffs in any fashion.

    Mean Wins includes 0.5 wins for each tie.

    • Carolina's DAVE is penalized 3.3% for backup quarterback Kyle Allen. Cam Newton returns by in Week 8 in 20% of simulations, increasing 20% each week until he is back by Week 12 in all simulations.
    • Jacksonville's DAVE is no longer penalized for backup quarterback Gardner Minshew.
    • New Orleans' DAVE is penalized 13.6% for backup quarterback Teddy Twatwater. Drew Brees returns in Week 10 in 60% of simulations, Week 11 in 20% of simulations, and Week 12 in the rest of the simulations.
    • New York Giants' DAVE accounts for the replacement of Eli Manning with Daniel Jones.
    • New York Jets' DAVE is penalized 18.0% for third-string quarterback Luke Falk. Sam Darnold returns in Week 5 in 60% of simulations and Week 6 in all other simulations.
    • Pittsburgh's DAVE accounts for the replacement of Ben Roethlisberger with Mason Rudolph.

    (The AFCN results, see link for more.)

      If I read his analytics right the BROWNS have a 22% chance at the division 4% chance at a bye 13% chance at a wc and 34% chance overall.

      So going 2-2 today would be HUGE!   MUST WIN?

            Well this analytics approach seems to be working.  They now have a better chance of winning the division (43.4%) and making the playoffs (56.1%) than Baltimore.

            What a difference a big win makes!

                      And one more I like this especially the children of Brady and hell freezes over.

                      Special Super Bowl Matchups

                      This report lists the odds of several "special" Super Bowl matchups.

                        What I mean is that it is silly. 

                        I could have told before a game was played that the Patriots had a 99.9% chance of winning that division.  And I think my number is more valid that what this has put out.   I am saying that I do not believe there is analytics at all involved.....just guesswork...possibly no better than my own.

                            That may be OK in a lot of areas.   But not here. My guesses probably are just as valid.

                                  Agree with Gip here. If you want, I can whip up a few scripts that crunch some numbers based on some arguably meaningful input and output some seemingly relevant data. But real world, I can almost guarantee that these numbers mean squat.... Why? Because you're trusting an algorithm that you didn't write, code for which you haven't seen the source, and which has not been proven to be any better at predicting the future than pulling names out of a hat.

                                  I could have registered the domain footballoutsiders.com for all you know, setup a LAMP stack, and be making money off all the ad's you mistakenly click on while you're there. I Didn't, but my point is, I believe those numbers mean absofuckinglutely nothing as well.

                                        Oh brother you've got that right.  Some people are so afraid of failing that they will never try anything.   😉

                                        GO BUCKEYES, BROWNS, INDIANS, CAVS, YSU, NAVY and yes I like ND!

                                          FIFY, but you're mostly right about Gipper too.... 

                                          PS- I was also on the Trubisky Train, but it's looking more and more like the Bears gave up way to much to get him- and he should have been drafted lower. Saved the Browns from making a big mistake? Very possibly.  

                                          Now about that Ghoolie feller and his love of Paxton Lynch and hate for Joe Thomas. I'd feel a lot better about our playoff SB chances if Joe was still playing. A 80% Joe would still be better than anything we currently have.
