The Gipper Posted February 4, 2019 Report Share Posted February 4, 2019 Here is my calculation of the Team of the Decade for the 2010s, now that the 2018 season has concluded. There is only one year left in this decade Note on Methodology: Scores for the Team of the Decade are alloted on a point system. The team that wins the Super Bowl is awarded 10 points. The team that loses the Super Bowl is awarded 6 points. The two Conference title game losers are awarded 3 points. Any other team that makes the playoffs is given one point. The points are then accumulated for the entire decade. In this case, all points are for all years from 2010 through 2018. So, we are 9/10ths through the 2010s. As noted the scores you see here are the accumulated points over the past 9 years playoff performances. So, the teams of the NFL, so far in order are: New England Patriots 52 points Seattle Seahawks 21 pts Green Bay Packers 20 pts. Denver Broncos 19 pts Baltimore Ravens 16 pts Pittsburgh Steelers 13 pts. Philadelphia Eagle 13 pts Atlanta Falcons 12 pts San Francisco 49ers 12 pts. NY Giants 11 pts Carolina Panthers 9 points Kansas City Chiefs 8 points Indianapolis Colts 7 pts. New Orleans Saints 7 points Los Angeles Rams 7 points Cincinnati Bengals 5 pts Minnesota Vikings 5 pts. Houston Texans 5 pts Arizona Cardinals 4 pts Chicago Bears 4 pts NY Jets 3 pts. Detroit Lions 3 pts Jacksonville Jaguars 3 pts. Dallas Cowboys 3 pts. Washington Redskins 2 pts LA Chargers 2 pts. Tennessee Titans 1 pt. Oakland Raiders 1 pt Miami Dolphins 1 pt Buffalo Bills 1 pt. Tampa Bay Bucs -0- pts. Cleveland Browns -0- pts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gipper Posted February 4, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2019 Note: The most accumulated points in a decade were by the 1950s Cleveland Browns with 57 points. The Patriots right now have 52 points. In order to become the all time point leader for a single decade, in the final year of this decade, 2019, the Patriots must at least make it to the Super Bowl, and win or lose, they would become the all time points leader in this category. Also.....FYI, the Patriots are the ONLY team to have made the playoffs this entire decade and ONLY in the very first year: 2010, did they fail to make it at least to the Conf. title game. They have accumulated points as follows: 10 pts 3 times as SB winner, 6 pts. twice as SB loser, 3 pts. 3 times as conf. title game loser. And 1 point 1 time.

So your decade starts with a one and ends with a nine. Do you bill the same way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you bill the same way? Yes....if I put in -0- time into something I have a -0- bill. 2020 is not part of the decade of the 20teens. Besides, what makes you think that math and time are measured the same way.....they are not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
