Half Season Reports: Discussion Thread/Writers? Empty Half Season Reports: Discussion Thread/Writers?

Post by Good Golly I'm Olly Wed 24 Oct 2012, 5:33 pm

Meand GSC have decided to embark on a project. Which is to write a report for each team in the NFL at the half season point. Now I (he agrees) want to open this up to the rest of the section. So if you want to help out, tell us here and we can discuss who is doing what teams and deadlines etc etc.

Any help or feedback is welcome! General comments as well Smile

EDIT: We hope this will be up on the V2 journal or somewhere else. Not just in our bedrooms Wink

Quotas:
AFC East - Olly
AFC West - Soddy
AFC North - MockingJay
AFC South -
NFC East - Number 25/GSC
NFC West -
NFC North - Barney
NFC South - Pr4wn

Feel free to count me in - I'd happily write something on the Redskins and would have a stab at some others if needs be. Am most familiar obviously with what's going in the NFC East but suspect that GSC will have that division covered!

We will have to see what GSC says!

I'm sure he won't mind!

Will edit the OP with who is writing what when on PC later

I am happy to help out.

Obviously a Raiders fan, but I have gamepass too so I can watch any team and come up with something!

Honestly GSC, this is your idea so you should have first dibs at the bits you want. I'd enjoy doing the NFC East stuff the most but with you being an Eagles fan I imagine you would too so obviously if you want it then you should get it. I'll happily take whatever bits you guys see fit and give it a shot.

Well I will take the AFC East if nobody minds.
Pr4wn can have the NFC South
Number-25/GSC can sort who does the NFC East
Soddy can do Raiders division (AFC West?)

That's 4 out of 8

This week is Week 8 right?

If so ideally we should start them after this week, and try and get em done before Week 9 starts. That's my view on the situation

I was thinking maybe do some stats (ie. leading rusher, reciever, QB stats etc) and then a little reports of how you think there season as gone so far.

As for a common format to try and keep it fairly linear try to keep within:

Using the NFC East as an example:

NFC East

Division Standings:
1. New York Giants: 5-2 (1-2)
2. Philadelphia Eagles: 3-3 (1-0)
3. Dallas Cowboys: 3-3 (1-0)
4. Washington Redskins: 3-4 (0-1)

(With divisional record in brackets)

New York Giants:
Couple of paragraphs about how their seasons gone, strengths/weaknesses, what lies in store etc.

Rinse repeat for each team.

Finally, predict a division winner etc.

OK Cheers GSC, in that case then, I'll happily do the NFC East. Lots to talk about there this year.

NFC West would be an interesting one for someone to pick up - all 4 teams are having interesting seasons.

Well I will happily do one of the AFC South/NFC West if somebody else would kindly do so as well!

Shall we set a deadline of Thursday for these so they are out before the Thursday night game? Or is that too harsh, and you want more time?
