Last year, if you take every single 1 score loss and turn them into wins for every single team, then there would be only 2 in all of the NFL with losing records and those teams would be 7-9.
Close scores at the end are the norm in the NFL. It's why getting blown out is embarrassing.
The 2019 Lions were 3-12-1. If you turned all their 1 score non-wins into wins, then they would have been 12-4..... and yet the 2020 Lions were 5-11, despite being "competitive" and "very close" the previous year according to your method.
I do see what you’re saying and understand it. But since I watched all of our games this year, I know we were actually able to win each of them. You guys watched the games right? How can you not agree? We were in every game!
*EDIT* I know we weren’t in the games we got blown out.
