The ten · Super Bowl

Nothing on this board can be scored yet. Every game here is still TBD, so there is no betting line, no record and no efficiency rating to rank them by. This card fills in as the participants are decided. The rule that will pick them is below, and it does not change.

By arithmetic on the same board you can see, not by anyone's judgment of what matters. Each game scores for a close betting line, for being a division game (worth more than a conference game, because a division game is played twice a year and decides who goes to the playoffs), for how the two clubs have played so far, and for their efficiency ratings. A lopsided line scores nothing however good the favorite is. A game whose two clubs are not decided yet cannot be scored at all, and is left out. The top ten by that score make the card, in kickoff order.
