Dude the guy who on my team who is excel only is the guy I'm laying off
And you're not helping him with your lack of probabilities models
Wouldn't the margin of error generally be assumed as 1-2% though?
Only solace I can take is that Lions have much more speed all over and that the Ravens pretty much held Chiefs in check but Lamar put up a complete dud.
I'd have hte Chiefs as the favorite though for sure.
The Ravens have a much better defense than the Niners though. Ravens statistically were an all time great defense this year, leading the league in PPG, turnovers, and sacks.
Hard to say it was worse because Falcons had 25 point lead but when your coach makes an all time blunder of not going up 3 scores when dominating the game it almost is...
If I remember correctly the Falcons just threw the ball too much and didn't eat up clock. You can probably correct teh record on that one better than me.
Just an all time gift to niners and hopefully they capitalize and beat the Swifties.

Oh sweet child, the Falcons were blowing big leads in the playoffs way before 28-3. In fact, they blew one to your darling 49ers just a few years ago.
That niners team was so stacked though and it was before the league figured out Kaep.

Gifted it to them.
Dropped 4th & 2
Dropped INT
Dropped Jamo long TD
Dropped 3rd & 10
The fumble

the plays were there, but they choked
SF was very unimpressive.

I fully expect low IQ excel guys to evaluate things based on results rather than the process... but both 4th down decisions were the correct call in pretty much any instance.
Worse yet, the play worked! If Reynolds simply catches the pass, the game is very likely over

Meanwhile, Lions were 15/20 (75%) on converting 4th & 3 or shorter on the season.
The reason we got to where we got was because we took the higher probability plays and most of the time executed

As was that Falcons team
13-3
Prime Matt Ryan and Julio Jones
Productive Roddy White and Tony Gonzalez
GOAT kicker Matt Bryant
I loved that team so much
Yeah - It was a great game with two great teams.
Ravens just came out and blitzed us early in that game but I think we were the better team overall.

No you weren't. Not when Flacco was on like that. Flacco had the best stretch of games in his career during that post season it was wild. Averaged 285 a game, about 3 TDs a game, no picks. That's not normal flacco. That's what held them back usually was normal flacco.
He was hot - But we still should have won that game. Awful playcalling on the goalline late when we could have just ran it in with Gore 4 straight times.

I won't pass blame off the coaching, but it waasn't perfect. Like 2 drives before that the Ravens should have ran it with Ray Rice 3 or 4 times. There also was the Tucker fake field goal shenanigans. Ravens left 7 points on the board too.
