SINCE THE MERGER...49-8 at home games played the first two weeks. 21-1 since opening the new stadium. Yeah the mule tool tried to word Smith his way out of another losing argument alright...

No, just went back to 2010 and looked at the first 4 games for the most part...

Would love to see data for all 32 teams going back 10-15 years to see which other teams have similar early starts. I just can't imagine it's only Denver.

The league average is 56 percent wins. Denver is around 90 making our point about the early advantage. Try again..

You just can't imagine that the only team with a natural advantage like warm weather in altitude is the only team with an unfair advantage. Suuuuure...of course

Referring to the home game scheduling.
[Reply]

So, you admit getting those games at home is a huge advantage??
[Reply]

No. Believe your argument is that if Denver had played the week 1 and week 2 games in weeks 7 and week 8 at home, they likely don't go 2-0 as they did in week 1 and week 2. Correct?

If Denver had started week 1 @ BAL and week 2 @ KC - they're likely still winless in those games. SEA and OAK in Denver beyond week 5, is likely still every bit as winnable as they were in weeks 1 and 2.

:-)

I SHOW YOU PROOF of Denver playing above their heads in that situation and you respond with nonsense.

Is it or is it not an advantage to play at home the first two weeks? Answer only this. No wordsmith.

So, where's the absurdity in my comment? Is it completely that unrealistic to expect Denver to beat SEA and OAK in Denver in October compared to August?
[Reply]

90 percent vs. An expected win percentage of 56. This isnt even a discussion at this point. I just need you to admit defeat so we can move on.
[Reply]

No, you wouldn't have beaten Seattle.

In the end, I think it works out the way it's supposed to if your team is good or bad... that schedule didn't help Denver end their season any better than they would have otherwise.

KC overcame 3 of 4 on the road because they are a good team.
KC didn't do that in 2015 because they were not as good, although they still finished with a solid record.

If you are a good team, you'll overcome whatever the schedule puts in front of you - like Denver did in 2015.

Find that season where Denver did something great and it was because of that early friendly schedule.

Is it or is it not an advantage to play in altitude in warm weather? Yes or no only...
[Reply]

Ah, ok. SEA was 4-4 on the road this year.
Lost @ DEN, CHI, Rams and 49ers
Won @ AZ, OAK, DET and CAR

Clearly, I'm drunk...

Answer the question. Yes or no..
