Imagine paying for stats you can get for free.
I heard the resale shop has used stats for like 2 or 3 dollars.

I think it’s you because I put Philly ahead of Dallas but I agree it is confusing.
Yet Dallas swept them.
Neither is "easily" the best team in the division, they're clearly close.
When it comes to young talent, Dallas has as much as anyone in the conference.
This isn't hate.
"7. Chicago Bears
Projected wins: 9.1
Chance to make playoffs: 55.6 percent
Where the team improved this offseason: Running back. This might not be a popular opinion, seeing as how Jordan Howard (traded to the Eagles) rushed for 3,370 yards over three seasons with the Bears. But Chicago's front office did a better job collecting running backs who fit head coach Matt Nagy's scheme, signing veteran Mike Davis and drafting Iowa State's David Montgomery in the third round. Combining Davis and Montgomery with explosive all-purpose threat Tarik Cohen gives the Bears more flexibility and pass-catching ability in the backfield. -- Jeff Dickerson"

How are the Lions 24th? I read on CCS that they're better than the Bears at pretty much every position.
It's not love either. I think ranking them 7 is bit of a low shot. More so, projecting 9 wins is pretty insulting.This isn't hate.

Especially after they make Dak Prescott the highest paid QB in the league...lolSkins beat the Cowboys the first time they played them and were leading the division when Smith went down. Cowboys definitely underperformed early on based on their talent. Getting Cooper was huge for them. Imagine if Nagy was their Head Coach. Then smile because he’s ours.
Cowboys will be bleeding talent soon, since they won’t be able to sign them all.
I really don’t get the Dak hate from people like Xero. He’s certainly done more than Mitch has so far. You could certainly win a super bowl with Dak. He’s not Aaron Rodgers but he’s also not Nathan Peterman. I would say he’s at least more than serviceable.
I have no idea tbh, I don't play that game. I'll take your word for it.I thought they had him at a 94 last year. While he had 1 less sack from the prior year his PDs went up and FFs....
I guess he got robbed.

I will say this: Madden is notorious for altering their ratings of individual players to adjust the teams overall to be more in line with what they think is fair.
So another thing Mitch and Deshaun Watson have in common......Being voted to the pro bowl by being one of the top QBs =/= being invited to the pro bowl because other people didn't go.
Stagnation? Sure. Regression? No. His numbers and performance haven’t been as good as his rookie season but they’ve certainly rebounded nicely last season. Comp%+ is well above average, Int%+ is well above average, Rate+ above average, also average yards per attempt+ and net average yards per attempt+ are both above average too.I'm a fan of a sport that expects marked progress from their shiny new quarterback. Dak is a case in stagnation and regression. Convince me otherwise.
Well I'm not like xero. I also dont think you'll win a SB with Dak if he's not on his rookie contract. If you pay him at a serviceable level, yes. But Jerry's going to give him elite money...I really don’t get the Dak hate from people like Xero. He’s certainly done more than Mitch has so far. You could certainly win a super bowl with Dak.

That can be said for a ton of QBs. It’s becoming harder and harder to win with a QB who isn’t on his rookie deal in general with the cap limitations.Well I'm not like xero.
