The HeroOfPellinor ATOT NFL Prediction Generator
Not content with just spitballing statistics, I've laid out the entire schedule for this year. So you don't have to know the strength of schedule for each team because you choose a winner for each matchup. The home team is the default.
After choosing the winners for each matchup for the whole year, you submit the form and are presented with the final standings broken out by division according to your selections. Only tie breaker currently included is division record. Below will be the first round of the playoffs also according to your selections. You choose the first round winners from the dropdown and submit the form again.
The next page has the second round playoff matchups generated from your first round selections. You will also use radio buttons to choose a conference and super bowl champion. Upon submitting this form, your answers are inserted into a database and the entire playoff results according to you are presented. The page includes a date and time stamp and is bookmarkable.
I don't know, maybe five minutes to do the whole thing. Plenty ugly, so if anybody with design skills wants to send me the files for prettier pages, feel free. If anybody actually ends up using it, I'll add a live comparison to actual results once the season starts and we'll come up with some kind of a points system and rank all users according to the accuracy of their predictions.
So try it out. Should be bug free as I tested it. If nobody has any objections and it looks semi-cool, we can start a thread dedicated to posting links to your predictions. Otherwise, screw you all for wasting six hours of my life.
