Broncomania Gone Sour? My Predictions Regarding Their First Eight Games This Season. By Gene W. Edwards. Posted 10/22/2023.
I didn’t post it on FB, but I predicted the outcome of the Bronco’s first eight games before the season started, using my own system. My first six predictions were 100% correct. Six games have been played by the Broncos so far this season. Two games remain. Had I bet on those first six games, I would have made a ton of money! I don’t predict scores, but only which team wins and which one loses for each matchup.
I’m not doing anything “psychic.” Rather, I’m using a system I devised a number of years ago but didn’t follow up on. First, look up last year’s season record of all 32 NFT teams; that record includes each team’s postseason wins or losses. There are 16 games, so if the wins/losses added up to 17 for a team, that team played one post-season game. Here’s one place where you can see last season’s (2022–2023) team standings: https://www.statmuse.com/nfl/ask/nfl-standings-last-season
Now look at who we have played/are playing this season Our record last season was a measly 5/12, five wins and 12 losses. Cellar!
Broncos play the Vas Vegas Raiders 5/12 record. Broncos lose.
Broncos play the Washington Commanders 8/8 record. Broncos lose.
Broncos play the Miami Dolphins 9/8 record. Broncos lose.
Broncos play the hapless Chicago Bears 3/14 record. Broncos win.
