OS NFL Simulation with WhatIfSports

The NFL season begins tomorrow night, and we are once again partnering with our friends at WhatIfSports to bring you the best simulation of the NFL season to your computer screens.

We are using the same method as the college football simulation, except of course we are replacing NCAA Football with Madden. We are taking the WhatifSports.com simulation and averaging the final records of teams with the Madden simulation. We are also going to show you how both simulations see the playoffs happening as well. Let's see how the season is set to turn out.

Yeah, Madden definitely surprised me there. What was very interesting was how they won their games, they were rather dominant in the Madden sim. It was pretty shocking to say the least.

damn jets dont make playoffs!! eagles 11-5? hahaha
 
# 7 sniperhare @ 09/08/10 08:00 PM
I simmed a few days ago and had the Rams make the playoffs with Daunte Culpepper winning the NFC championship after the rookie of the year Bradford got injured in the last game of the season.

The Rams got stomped 3-38 by the Ravens in the SB after they beat the 12-4 (best record in the NFL) Jaguars in the AFC championship game.

Chargers and Cowboys are the only teams that make Conference Finals in both Sims, so I say Dallas by 11 over Chargers in the Super Bowl. 32-21
 
# 9 Dog @ 09/08/10 09:40 PM
a little generous for the eagles. but ill take it
 
# 10 NozzleMan @ 09/08/10 09:49 PM
I know the dolphins are no where near guaranteed playoffs but I know we will have a better record then Buffalo! lol. We should be a .500 team.
 
# 11 SteelBurgher @ 09/08/10 09:49 PM
Here We Go Steelers!
 
# 12 xavier23 @ 09/08/10 09:49 PM
I'm confused who's Cincinatti? (Cincinnati)
 
# 13 JaymeeAwesome @ 09/08/10 10:28 PM
I love the patriots but I'm expected a 9-7 year, maybe a 10-6 if we're lucky. We have one tough schedule.
 
# 14 WDOgF0reL1fe @ 09/09/10 01:47 AM
LOL at denver being 10 -6
 
# 15 Gordy748 @ 09/09/10 08:02 AM
Good to see the Seahawks getting consistent predictions. Now for consistency in playing...
 
# 16 bigdnlaca @ 09/09/10 10:46 AM
So Dallas win the Superbowl by winning 3 games on the road? Very unlikely that they will not take the NFC East.

nothing is impossible. manning could get hurt week 1 and be out for the season

so your complaining that the cowboys are predicted to win the super bowl???
 
# 19 av7 @ 09/09/10 01:22 PM
8-8 is Denver's ceiling for the season. 6 or 7 wins is realistic.
 
# 20 stlstudios189 @ 09/09/10 05:06 PM
wow the two sims are pretty close!!
