A GREAT article on how teams that won 7 or less games, that suddenly win 10+ are almost certain to regress.
The qualifiers this year are Det, SF, and Hou. BUT .......Hou massive key injuries and SF an ez division, and a huge coaching upgrade should keep them on top. The clever 'trend' play here is Cincy, a garbage team that almost pulled off the 10 win trick last
year with the cream puff schedule including many bad teams and many backup qbs! AR Red Skelton, Stl The E Street Band Clemmons, Houx 2, TJs x2, Sea Traveris Jackson, Den with no Tebow, etc., along with some silly late game luck and fumble 6s and punt returns etc late in games distorting vicorty margins, JAx, Sea, INdy wins etc. Don't forget that silly Ten win, 24-17 when Cincy was down 17-14, and needed to convert 3 3rd and longs, and then Ten dropped the ball on their 18 with a fumbler.....they did get Buf when they weere good, but got em off their 'tear down the goalposts' win vs. NE, and don't forget SF was off that OT loss to Dallas, and Cincy got the early start time, early season home game. This team is gonna get POUNDED.
9 of their last 10 are games vs. Giants type teams. THey likely finish 3-7.
