2019 Season Predictions
Well I think we’ve seen enough of preseason to stake out our positions regarding season results, so let’s get to it.
It’s that time of year where Steel Ballers put their reputations on the line to make their season predictions. Let me remind you of the rules of engagement:
Rules:
- Lowest score wins.
- Points are based on accuracy. An exact prediction yields zero points.
- Categories include:
- Final regular season record for each AFCN team.
- Divisional positioning of AFCN teams.
- Number of Steelers playoff wins (first round bye counts as a win)
- Tie breaker: first, accuracy of game-by-game predictions, then earliest submission
If you are too lazy to provide predictions in any of the above categories, you will get maximum points for that category.
Predictions will be accepted until Midnight ET September 7. You may change your predictions up until that time without penalty.
Good luck!
