[QUOTE="Zero2Cool, post: 125232, member: 43"] [b]Re: An Eagles Victory tomorrow night would help Packer's Cha[/b] Nobody? So you don't know but yet you say its .. nvm. Anyhow, you are right, it is a LONG shot to say the least. The benefit to not having to work or attend class for an entire week gives me the chance to figure out the math behind all this and then the potential outcomes. Here we go. Keep in mind this is with Packers beating the Bears, and the Giants beating the Redskins. First, this is how strength of victory is calculated. You take the teams beaten and their records. Tally up the wins and the losses. Mainly the wins(as Jennings85 would say, OBVIOUSLY), but bring the loss's too so you can check your work. Since the Packers will need to have EIGHT wins you have eight teams to total their records. --- Note --- teams played twice, count twice (as Jennings85 would say, OBVIOUSLY). Packers would need the final record for their teams beaten to be as follows. Lions 3 - 13 Vikings 7 - 9 Cardinals 6 - 10 Dolphins 7 - 9 49ers 7 - 9 Lions 3 - 13 Vikings 7 - 9 Bears 13 - 3 Totals 53 - 75 (check my math, im not perfect!) Now that we have the wins of the teams the Packer beat. We take the number of teams, EIGHT and multiply that by how many games in the season that have been completed, 16. 8 teams beaten * 16 games played = 128 Then, you have to divide 53 into 128 to give you the strength of victory which would be, 0.4140625 for the Packers That's for the Packers. Now the Giants. Packers would need the final record for Giants teams beaten to be as follows. Redskins 5 - 11 Falcons 7 - 9 Eagles 9 - 7 Bucs 4 - 12 Texans 6 - 10 Panthers 7 - 9 Cowboys 9 -7 Redskins 5 - 11 Totals 52 - 76 Giving the Giants a SoV of 0.40625 OKAY, still with me? lol ... this is who has to win an lose in Week 17 [list][b]Lions[/b] beat Cowboys [b]Vikings[/b] beat Rams [b]Cardinals[/b] beat Chargers [b]Dolphins[/b] beat Colts [b]49ers[/b] beat Broncos [b]Packers[/b] beat Bears [b]Giants[/b] beat Redskins [b]Falcons[/b] beat Eagles [b]Seahawks[/b] beat Buccaneers [b]Browns[/b] beat Texans [b]Saints[/b] beat Panthers[/list] As Jennings85 said, its a long shot. Don't ask how they would tie. I ain't that bored. I'd also like to thank Jennings85 for calling me a 'nobody'. ;) edit, Points are not considered with Strength of Victory and if they are. SCREW THEM! I ain't doing that all over again. :) [/QUOTE]
