The Cowboys and Bears are deadlocked in a battle for the all time regular season winning %. The Bears have been the leader for a while. The Cowboys chasing and narrowing the gap a little this year. Here's how they break down right now.
Dallas' all time record is 472-352-6.
Chicago's all time record is 735-541-42.
So, if you calculate each one here is the winning %.
Dallas is .572289%.
Chicago is .573596%.
Now let's say Dallas wins this week.
Dallas would be .572804%.
Chicago would be .573161%.
Each would then have 3 games left. Here is what their winning %s will be with 3, 2, 1, and 0 wins after the coming game.
Dallas with 3 wins after the Bears game would be .574341%.
With 2 wins would be .573141%.
With 1 more win would be .571942%.
No more wins would be .570743%.
Chicago with 3 wins after the game against Dallas would be .574130%.
Chicago with 2 wins would be .573374%.
With 1 more win would be .572617%.
No more wins would be .571861%.
So what this would mean if we win next Thursday is that if Dallas wins out, they would pass the Bears even if they win out too. Any combination of an extra Dallas win in the final 3 games will give Dallas the lead in the all time race.
Chicago closes out after Dallas with New Orleans, Detroit and Minnesota.
The bottom line is this. Dallas can take back a lead that was once ours. It is important to me that they do so. If you throw in post season games we have the lead anyway. I want it outright.
Oh, and just because I look at the bright side of life did anyone bother to note that after today we are 1 game shy of having the best record in the NFL? We clearly suck right? But every other team with the same record is in good shape.
If we take care of business, this team will be fine. If they really take care of business they could own another NFL record.
