Why do I keep beating teams that have considerably more talent?
I finally looked at his league, team and opponents and I'm a little confused.
His team is Cincinnati and this is his 2nd season as owner. The 1st season he went 0-16 and year two, he is 3-1.
He lost his first game to a good team in Carolina who went 9-6-1 the previous season and Is 4-0 in the current season.
He won the next 3 games against:
Tennessee who is owned by Punisher who has had 15 straight losing seasons.
New Orleans who has a new owner this season after 3 seasons of AI ownership and has 8 straight losing seasons.
Pittsburgh who has a new owner this season after the previous owner went 16-30-2 the previous 3 seasons.
He hasnt beat anyone with a history of winning in the recent past, 2 teams have 1st year owners and Punisher owns over 60 teams and cant possibly have the time to properly gameplan for every league he is in.
The answer is simple, he drafted an elite rookie QB who is developing nicely and has a couple +90 speed WRs along with a nice TE and 3rd possession type reciever to throw to. That coupled with a last place schedule should make for a decent season.
The shocker would be if he starts beating Setherick, Infinity, warthog or MWD but none of them are on his schedule so he may make the playoffs before meeting one of them.
Great draft pick and the team could be a force with a couple more nice additions in the future.
