Lucky or Unlucky

You might remember, the Davis Index spawned out of me wanting to know, who was performing well against the rest of the league, and who was just getting lucky based on schedule.   Utilizing the new “All Play” tool I have, I have finally been able to compare winning percentage against the entire league, to the actual standings.

Lucky- These teams win percentage are one game above what the all play win percentage is.

• No Bobby No

• The Trojans 

• Ginger Snaps 

• The Rookie

• Team DTA

Neutral-These teams win percentage are exactly where they are supposed to be

• Mean Machine Child Beaters

• Ride or Dies

• All Fired Up

Unlucky-These teams win percentage are one game below what the all play win percentage is

• The Romosexuals 

• The Monstars

• Vonteego Cross

Extremely Unlucky-This team is 2 games below the all play win percentage

• Team GFY-makes sense when you have the most difficult schedule in the league so far.

Random player/team facts

1. Cam Newton got 39.7 points last week and is now the number 5 quarterback.

2. The 2-5 qb’s last week were Jared Goff, Kirk Cousins, Case Keenum, and CJ Beathard.  That makes a lot of sense

3. Deshaun Watson is still the number 7 qb ahead of Stafford, Cousins, and Brees amongst many others.

4. Josh McCown and Jacoby Brisett are the 12th and 13th qb’s this season, ahead of Rivers, Ryan and Roethlisberger.

5. The Saints ran the ball on 24 consecutive plays on Sunday.  The last time that happened, Drew Brees was 10 years old.

6. The Saints have the number 6 and number 7 rb’s this season (Ingram and Kamara).

7. The Jaguars have won 3 games in a row, with Leonard Fournette totaling 33 yards rushing in those games

8. Austin Ekeler and Dion Lewis were top 10 rb’s this year

9. The difference between Todd Gurley and Kareem Hunt is the more than the difference between Kareem Hunt and number 8 Carlos Hyde.

10. The Browns Saints and Falcons are the only 3 teams to have 2 top 24 rb’s

11. Isiah Crowell has scored double digit points the last three weeks in a row and is now number 2 rb, despite averaging less than 2 catches per game. 

12. Adam Thielen is the number 3 WR this season, just ahead of Larry Fitzgerald and AJ Green

13. The difference between number 3 and number 22 wr is less than 30 points. 3 and 22 at rb’s difference is 81 points.

14. Including the massive game, he had week 3, Sammy Watkins has 21 catches this season. His former and current teammate, Robert Woods has more catches then that in his last 4 games.

15. Robert Woods has 60 points combined the last two weeks,

16. The giants have a touchdown to tight end in 9 straight games.

17. Evan Engram has scored a touchdown in 4 consecutive games

18. Only 10 tight ends are averaging 10 points per game this season.

19. If you take out the Denver game, the Giants DST has scored 0 points this season.

20. The Jags DST more points than Duke Johnson and Alshon Jeffrey. 

One Kicker stat just because: Greg Zuerlein has outscored the second kicker by 35 points this season.  That is a larger game than the number 2 kicker and the number 19 kicker.  

The Davis Index will be delayed if it comes out at all next week.  I will be traveling.  If it comes out, it will be either be on Friday or Saturday. Good Luck down the stretch
