Uhm. Play your next game with 1 FS in the middle. Should be fine. Many top teams play with 1 FS.

I'm expecting a backlash from the Knights this week.

Offensive performances like last weeks are anomalies. Expect the Knights to shock the Pandas.

It wasn't ever going to be a shock with my backup QB still out there.

We've lost his 2 games under centre by a combined 10 points. The doctors don't anticipate him seeing a 3rd.

I have not done the stats yet so this can change but some preliminary results.

Offensive lines still seem weaker than in div III 5. Some of this is down to the DE'S being better but the OLs should be keeping pace.

Knight's offense was better this week but still not good.

A change in QB helped the Wariors but the Packers can count themselves unlucky to lose. The stats indicate a narrow Packers win. Unfortunately for the packers it was close enough that it only required a small amount of luck to change the result.

Scandinavian Nightmare just look like a really strong team. Other title favourites Rams had an easy game this week so I will reserve judgement.

Not that i don't love your stats, and great to have you here, but have you any way to check form? i've always felt that a string of wins works wonders for performance, and vica versa. But is this checkable? coops

Personally I don't share your views on form. Especially as it would require a lot more effort to code in than not doing it.

However I don't have evidence of this and my stats don't check this. I am not sure how to check it but will think about it. Off hand I see a few issues, which stats am I checking, how to deal with changing opposition strengths, small sample sizes.

Will get back to you.
