Okay, so the other day I was watching Monday Night Football, right? And I got to thinking, how many total points do these games usually end up with? So I decided to do a little digging and see what I could find. Turns out, it’s a bit more involved than you might think!
First, I started with just looking at the most recent games. I figured that would give me a good idea of the current trend. Man, was I wrong! Some games were real nail-biters, with scores like 24-21, you know, really close. But then others, like that game I saw the other day, were total blowouts, something crazy like 45-10. It was all over the place!
So, I realized I needed more data. I went back and looked at, like, a whole season’s worth of Monday Night Football games. I started jotting down the scores, adding up the total points for each game. It took a while, let me tell you. My notebook was just filled with numbers!
Getting somewhere
After crunching all those numbers, I started to see some patterns. Most games seemed to land somewhere between 40 and 50 total points. That was kind of my “aha!” moment. But there were still those outliers, the really high-scoring games and the defensive battles that ended up in the 20s or 30s.
- Checked recent games. Found a mix of close games and blowouts.
- Expanded to a full season. Took notes on every game’s total score.
- Found a common range. Most games were between 40 and 50 total points.
- Noticed outliers. Some games were way higher or lower than the average.
It got me thinking about what makes these games so different. You’ve got your star quarterbacks who can sling it down the field, right? And then there are those defenses that just shut everything down. Plus, you never know when a team’s gonna have an off night. It’s a lot to consider.
Anyway, after all that digging, I felt like I had a pretty good handle on the whole total points thing. It’s not an exact science, but you can definitely see some trends. And it makes watching the games even more interesting, trying to guess how many points they’ll end up with.
So yeah, that’s my little adventure into the world of Monday Night Football scores. Hope you found it interesting!
