NFL WEEK 9 THOUGHTS OF A MADMAN. ARE INJURIES HANDICAPS?

WEEK 9 "INJURIES" I MEAN HANDICAPS.


THIS STATEMENT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE NFL. THIS IS A CRAZY THOUGHT I HAVE IN MY HEAD.


Teams are balanced through a unique system of handicaps. In this innovative approach, teams are required to sit their star players due to a set of carefully crafted algorithms, although the league publicly states that these players are sidelined due to injuries. This creative narrative provides them with the freedom to shape the league's storyline and maintain a balanced gameplay experience for all teams involved.


The handicaps can be diverse, ranging from tactical restrictions to player limitations, ensuring that each team faces different challenges. For instance, one team might have to play without their stud running-back, while another team could be limited on defense by having to sit their star defensive-end. These handicaps not only level the playing field but also add an exciting layer of strategy and unpredictability to the matches.


By presenting these handicaps as injuries to the star players, you can maintain the illusion of a realistic sports league while secretly orchestrating a dynamic and engaging competition. This approach allows them to craft intriguing plotlines, showcase underdog stories, and surprise the audience with unexpected twists, all while keeping the balance within the league intact.


This is what an imaginary league would look like if it used handicaps to balance the game.




MIA 25 - 26 KC (-1.5)   O/U50.5

HANDICAPS:

DOLPHINS WILL NEED TO SIT EITHER TWO

DEFENSIVE STUDS OR TWO OFFENSIVE STUDS

INCLUDING THE RUNNING-BACK.

CHIEFS WILL HAVE ALL WEAPONS ON

DEFENSE AND OFFENSE AVAILABLE.






ARZ 17 - 26.5 CLV (-3)   O/U37.5

HANDICAPS:

CARDINALS WILL NEED TO SIT A STUD WR

OR RB IF KYLER PLAYS.

BROWNS WILL HAVE ALL WEAPONS AVAILABLE

CHI 22 - 26 NO (-8.5)   O/U41

HANDICAPS:

SAINTS HAVE TO SIT 4 STARTERS ON

OFFENSE AND 3 STARTERS ON DEFENSE!

TAYSOM HILL WILL QB THIS GAME FOR THE SAINTS.

BEARS WILL GO IN FULLY LOADED

AND FIELDS IS PLAYING.

FLIP THIS SCORE TO A BEARS WIN 26 - 22 SAINTS.

THIS GAME IS GOING TO BE ALL ABOUT

BOTH QBS SETTING RUSHING RECORDS.

THE BEARS ARE THE BETTER COACHED TEAM.






LAR 21 - 14 GB (-3.5)   O/U38.5

I HAD A SPLIT ON THIS GAME.

THE OTHER TOTAL HAS THE PACKERS

WINNING LAR 21 - 25.5 GB.

HANDICAPS:

PACKERS HAVE TO LIMIT RB JONES TOUCHES

AND A STUD WR'S TOUCHES OR JUST NOT USE JONES

AT ALL AND THE PACKERS ALSO HAVE 

TO SIT TWO STUD DEFENSIVE PLAYERS.

RAMS CAN GO IN FULLY LOADED.

I EXPECT STAFFORD TO PLAY. 

THE RAMS CAN'T SPARE ANYONE, EVERYONE PLAYS.






MIN 12 - 28 ATL (-4.5)   O/U37.5

ORIGINAL SCORE PREDICTION HAD

MIN WINNING BY 2 POINTS,

MIN 27 - 25 ATL. BUT WITH THE UPDATED SCORE

AND THE QB CHANGES, THE WINNER FLIPS.

HANDICAPS:

FALCONS HAVE TO SIT A LOT OF PLAYERS.

EITHER THEY HAVE TO SIT 2 DEFENSIVE

PLAYERS AND 2 OFFENSIVE PLAYERS OR

1 OFFENSIVE PLAYER AND 3 DEFENSIVE PLAYERS. 

THE FALCONS WILL SIT B-ROB AND TIGHT-END PIT.

IT'S ON TAKIS SHOULDERS.






SEA 14 - 26 BAL (-6)   O/U44

THIS GAME HAD AN INITIAL SCORE PREDICTION

OF SEA 23 - 15 BAL, STATING SEATTLE WON.

HANDICAPS:

RAVENS HAVE TO SIT 1 STUD DEFENDER

AND 1 STUD OFFENSIVE PLAYER OR

2 STUD DEFENDERS.

HANDICAPS:

PATRIOTS HAVE TO SIT 1 DEFENSIVE STUD.

SKINS CAN GO IN FULLY LOADED.






(-2.5) IND 23 - 20.5 CAR   O/U44

HANDICAPS:

THE NFL COULD NITPICK THIS AND MAKE THE 

COLTS ADJUST BY SITTING AN OFFENSIVE PLAYER 

OR A DEFENSIVE PLAYER BUT IT'S CLOSE.

PANTHERS CAN GO IN FULLY

LOADED (WHATEVER THAT MEANS).






DAL 27 - 32.5 PHI (-3)   O/U47

HANDICAPS:

IT CAN GO ONE OF TWO WAYS.

DALLAS SITS TWO STUDS ON DEFENSE AND

EAGLES SIT TWO STUDS ON OFFENSE OR

BOTH TEAMS GO IN FULLY LOADED.

THE CATCH? IF BOTH TEAMS AGREE TO

GO IN FULLY THAT MEANS THEY ARE MATCHING UP

DEFENSE TO OFFENSE INSTEAD OF

BALANCING OFFENSES AND DEFENSES

TO MATCH. SOMETIMES WHEN

TEAMS SCRIPT THE GAME

IN THIS MANNER D VS O, ONE TEAM

FAILS TO SCORE MORE THAN 

9 POINTS. THE FIRST DRIVES

WILL TELL YOU ALMOST

EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW.

EVERYONE PICKED EAGLES TO WIN.






NYG 19 - 20 LV (-1.5)   O/U37

ORIGINAL SCORE PREDICTION WAS NYG 24 - 29 LV.

HANDICAPS:

GIANTS SIT 1 STUD DEFENSIVE PLAYER OR STUD RB.

RAIDERS SIT 1 STUD DEFENSIVE PLAYER.






BUF 26 - 21 CIN (-2)    O/U49.5

HANDICAPS: 

THIS GAME HAS THE SAME MAKEUP AS 

THE DALLAS - PHILLY GAME.

EITHER BOTH TEAMS ADJUST OR THEY

GO IN FULLY LOADED.

KEEP AN EYE ON THE "INJURY REPORT". 

IF IT DOESN'T LIST A STUD DEFENSIVE OR OFFENSIVE

PLAYER FOR EACH TEAM THEN THEY

ARE GOING IN FULLY LOADED.

IF THEY GO IN FULLY LOADED, THERE COULD BE

A TEAM THAT FAILS TO SCORE MORE THAN 9 POINTS.






(-3.5) LAC 23 - 19 NYJ   O/U40.5

MY INITIAL SCORE PREDICTION

HAD THE CHARGERS LOSING

LAC 17 - 19.5 NYJ. THE UPDATED

SCORE SHOWS LAC WINNING

BY 4 POINTS WHICH ALIGNS WITH

THE VEGAS SPREAD OF LAC-3.5.

HANDICAPS:

CHARGERS HAVE ALL THEIR WEAPONS

AVAILABLE TO THEM.

JETS HAVE TO SIT 4 STUD DEFENDERS

OR 1 OFFENSIVE STUD RB AND 3 DEFENDERS.
