2025 NFL Opponent Winning%

This shows each team's record and the combined win rate of their opponents so far, sorted from toughest to easiest schedule through Week 6

ATL is above 0.500 vs a very difficult schedule. Flip side, the team ATL just beat, the Bills have had a comically light schedule

Each Monday morning, I throw a fantasy football stat thread together. As a reminder, these are not takes. This is just data. More context is always important.

This is the Week 6 data dump.

Holy forking shirt balls, the mariners moved a runner over to 3rd with less than 2 outs

Scott Rinear @munderdifflinff.bsky.social · 2d

I think that ball landed in the US

Didn’t realize egbuka got hurt

He was the saving grace on two of my Nabers teams

Relaxing before the stress

Nacua’s in-game injury likely costing me a W in a league where I’ll have second highest score (always fun)

These injuries have been BRUTAL in 2025

Have Bucky & Nabers on like half my teams, Lamar on a few

Doesn’t help I played against Skattebo & Jacobs in multiple leagues

Thank god he chased that high fastball

I will say, I’ve been a “not my home team” blue jays fan since the Joe Carter days. And nothing but respect for the hoards of fans that trek down to Seattle from Canada every year to T Mobile Park & get LOUD

Blue Jays-Mariners games are always electric

This is going to be a fun series

Damn, the Mariners game 5 walk off in 2055 is gonna be epic

As a fan, I’m not sure I would have survived much longer 😂
