9/27

Today I completed my goal with Logan...I'll be thinking of a more academic goal to do as well next time.

This year I would like to work closely with Logan Cho to predict all NFL games starting in week 2 to see who has the better percentage. We will be looking at ESPN insiders predictions to see who the favorite for that game is along with stats to predict the outcome of the game. This should last throughout the playoffs so it will take up at least half of the year.

Continued My Power Point

The title is self explanatory

Tornadoes

Today, I began to make a power point about tornadoes and will continue next class.

Harrison Barmes-UNC

He is a good shooter. Outstanding jump shot. Lacks ball handling. Does not have extreme quickness. Jumps out of the gym.

ESPN:Barnes was as smooth as ever against Johnston tonight. He dominated the game without forcing one shot. He repeatedly scored with his Paul Pierce-like middle game. Barnes hit one or two dribble pull ups both ways with great elevation and follow through. He ran the outside lane in transition...

My New Goal

For my new goal I will study tornadoes. I will learn what weather they are most often in and also the amount of destruction.

Vikings @ Saints

I think the Vikings will win 38-35. The Vikings have too good of a defense and too good of an offense to not win this game, although it will be close.

Jets @ Colts

I think the Colts will win 17-10. The Jets defense will shut the offense down but I think Mark Sanchez will not be able to handle the pressure of this big game.

Ravens at Colts...

I predict the Colts will win 31-10. Peyton Manning will shred the secondary of the Ravens and judging by Joe Flacco's performance last week, he is not capable of going into this loud dome against a strong Indy secondary and leading the Ravens to victory.

Packers at Cardinals

I predict the Cardinals will win 28-21. These two teams are evenly matched but I think the Cardinals explosive offense will prevail at home.

Eagles at Cowboys

I predict the Eagles will win 20-17. The Dallas defense has pitched a shutout the last two games but the Eagles have too much of a high-powered offense to be shut out two weeks in a row. DeSean Jackson is the big play master leading the league in 50+ yard touchdowns.

Ravens at Patriots...

I predict the Patriots will win 34-14. They are 8-0 at home this year while Baltimore is just 3-5 on the road. The Patriots' Tom Brady should be able to pick apart a Ravens secondary that is banged up even without Wes Welker.

Jets at Bengals...

I predict that the Jets will win 31-14. The Jets just beat the Bengals 37-0 in New York with the Bengals starters not playing the full game. The Bengals just don't have the offense to go against this championship caliber defense of the Jets and the Jets have an excellent running game with Thomas Jones, Shonn Greene, and Brad Smith.

Season Completed.

I ended up being 10 TDs and 6Ints of for Steelers QBs and 9TDs and 10Ints off for opposing QBs.
Since this is the end of the season, I will find the average # of TD and Int I was off per game.

For Steelers, 1.66 TD/game and 1 INT/ game.

For opponents 1.5 TD/game and 1.66 INT/game.


For the remainder of the season, I will predict the scores of the playoff games.
