There you go, that's the shortest loop. It will remain the shortest path to resolve the loop irrespective of what goes on tonight. I just realized that my evening commute is going to be hellish. I don't like Monday night Broncos home games... Ah, Buffalo beat Tampa, too. There you go, that’s the shortest loop.

I just realized that my evening commute is going to be hellish. I don’t like Monday night Broncos home games…

I do not believe. GB->CLE->BUF->CAR->WAS->TB. This seems like the only incorrect beatpick of the week so far, though, and I don't think any of the other wins cause inconsistent tangles. So... does this whole loop get wiped out, or is there a shortcut? I don't see anything shorter than GB->CLE->BUF->CAR->TB->GB, which only preserved WAS->TB (yay!). GB->DET->WAS->TB->GB is no help, for instance, because DET->WAS is wiped out before that loop is considered. So, a five game beatloop. GB will have a chance to restore that path by beating Dallas next week, though. Given that Chicago is the best team Green Bay has beaten, though, I'm not counting on it. “Believe it or not, Green Bay does not have a beatpath to Tampa Bay, so Tampa Bay could get a beatwin out of this.”
