Week 3 form lines.
I can't contribute to any rational debate, but I thought I could offer a vaguely interesting stat.
Following form lines shows that every team actually has some kind of form with every other team. Presented in this order, you can take the team you are interested in and see how related results went. I'll give an example underneath. <font class="small">Code:</font><hr /><pre> Denver 6 7 Jacksonville Jacksonville 13 10 Buffalo Buffalo 10 13 Oakland Oakland 21 24 Pittsburgh Pittsburgh 13 30 Baltimore Baltimore 3 20 Cleveland Cleveland 12 19 Dallas Dallas 17 35 Minnesota Minnesota -- -- Philadelphia NY Giants 17 31 Philadelphia Washington 14 20 NY Giants Tampa Bay 10 16 Washington Seattle 10 6 Tampa Bay Seattle 21 7 New Orleans San Fran 27 30 New Orleans Atlanta 21 19 San Francisco St Louis 17 34 Atlanta Arizona 10 17 St Louis New England 23 12 Arizona Indianapolis 24 27 New England Indianapolis 31 17 Tennessee Tennessee 17 7 Miami Miami 13 16 Cincinnati Cincinnati 24 31 NY Jets NY Jets 34 28 San Diego San Diego 27 20 Houston Houston 16 28 Detroit Detroit 20 16 Chicago Chicago 21 10 Green Bay Green Bay 24 14 Carolina Carolina 28 17 Kansas City Kansas City 24 34 Denver </pre><hr /> This wraps from top to bottom. There may be typo's but I've done the best I can. What this means in terms of a form guide is you can cross reference any two teams. Each team appears twice in a row. For example, next week Seattle at San Francisco is an easy one, we can see both have played New Orleans without having to remember or look up results. It also works for any, more extreme, form guide. Houston at Kansas City for example. Reading the shortest route on the list from HOU to KC we can see that.... Houston were beaten by Detroit, who beat Chicago, who beat Green Bay who beat Carolina who beat Kansas City. Both teams lost by similar scores, but Detroit is a better side (Based entirely on the two results so far and with 0 other factors) than Carolina as they have a chain of victories. Anyway, hopefully a little interesting and a bit of fun when comparing teams. Lori

Re: Week 3 form lines.

It was fun to play with, almost like six degrees of separation. I think, as the season progresses, it will be a little cumbersome unless a way is found to alphabetize both sides.
