In my fantasy football league there was a trade offer to a guy that we feel would be clearly out of the playoff race because their are only 4 games left. However, he won this week, but because we run a point system he is still currently in 8th place (Team 8)....Please help me solve this problem and help me prove that statistically he still can't make the playoffs (and or couldn't make the playoffs just by his standings in Week 10). Please help me mathematically and statistically figure this out in a equation and tell me his odds of making the playoffs ... before week 10 and after week 10.
Week 10:
team 1 record 7-2 points 1457.56
team 2 record 6-4 points 1636.77
team 3 record 6-4 points 1438.22
team 4 record 6-4 points 1410.89
team 5 record 6-4 points 1415.93
team 6 record 6-4 points 1383.47
team 7 record 4-5 points 1413.28
team 8 record 4-5 points 1310.56 (He played Team 3 this week)
*Team 9 & 10 are out
Week 11 (He beat Team 3 to move to 5-6) He now has to play Team 6(week 12 as shown below), Team 4 (week 13), & Team 1 (week 14) to make the playoffs
New Standings as of yesterday
team 1 record 8-3 points 1611.64 plays team 9 week 12
team 2 record 7-4 points 1791.77 plays team 5 week 12
team 3 record 6-5 points 1597.27 plays team 4 week 12
team 4 record 6-5 points 1521.33
team 5 record 6-5 points 1498.54
team 6 record 6-5 points 1483.61
team 7 record 5-6 points 1558.54 plays team 10 week 12
team 8 record 5-6 points 1482.27 plays team 6 week 12
*Team 9 & 10 are out
