ESPN Season Simulation Results

ESPN is predicting a Chiefs win over the Cowboys in the superbowl.


There's some weird stuff in there. I mostly read the Bills stuff, but they have the Chargers blowing out the undefeated Bills in week 4, then the Bills blowing out the Chargers in the playoffs? The Bills beat the undefeated the Chiefs in week 5 and finish with the same record, but the Chiefs get the first round bye? Then the Chiefs beat the Bills in the second round.

I'm not all in on the Titans being great, but to see them finish 8-8 and miss the last playoff spot the Chargers doesn't seem realistic.


Other fun notes... Cam gets sat week 12 for Stidham. Same week Teddy and Minshew get benched. No mention of Mitch getting pulled in Chicago, as the Bears pass the Packers for last in the North (tie).

Raiders fans gotta like this simulation... They'd have a top 5 pick in the draft

Good to know a super computer came out with last year's champion and the team that has been on the brink for almost 5 years

Wasn't too far off for parts of it. But didn't predict Ravens, thought the Browns would be good, thought the Titans would be good with Mariota, didn't predict Ben's injury.


So, not really any different than anyone's predictions, but was close in parts.

They're mocking us a top 2 pick, so we'll surely **** up and win 5 games.

The Steelers, Pats, and Packers predictions are all ballsy IMO. Hard to imagine the Pats only winning 5, Packers finishing 4th in NFCN, and Steelers winning more than 10 games.

Agree with all of this lol

Only NE prediction I’m willing to make is that Cam fails to start all 16 due to injury. I can buy them finishing with 10 wins and I can buy them finishing with 6.

I mean I do believe the Raiders will do much better then 5-11 but if they dont have a good year then top 5 works for me. Should allow the ability to get 1 of the 3 QBs.

It's crazy I stepped back 4 years ago and soaked it all in. Figured it was done then

I saw 9 losing seasons in a row.

Can't wait for the start of the season. Afce baby here we go........ You are a bills fan right Jack?

It's rough being a Cam fan who also has waited 20 years for the Pats to suck. When the Pats finally do suck there'll be a lot of "fans" who suddenly "don't enjoy football anymore, but don't know why."

I'll take a playoff appearance i guess.

Honestly can't wait for all the fake fans to leave maybe the 10 year season ticket wait will drop lmao
