I’ve been noticing that the best manager list has been inaccurate how I’ve been doing it. It hasn’t taken into account the fact that some teams have a better chance to manage (under the previous method) because their options are limited and their choices for good players obvious and others have a lot of good players and thus their options are easy because they’re choosing between 2 good and slightly better. But it doesn’t take into account bye weeks and injured players. Thus I have decided to change my method. The most accurate way I can find is to subtract the lowest possible score from the highest possible score (for each team) and do a percentage with the difference of posted score from best score divided by the difference of worst score from best score. Those with more bye and injured players will (often) have a higher woulda ranking since their options for busts are limited which will even things out. I also assume that there are probably many people out there who won’t read this or even care about it. However if you do read this and (more importantly) care, let me know your thoughts and opinions.

In terms of woulda coulda shouldas:
[(Shoulda-Posted)/(Shoulda-Woulda)] x 100 = Manager Score %.
The lower the %, the lower the mistakes and the better the manager.

BEST TEAM MANAGERS FOR WEEK 4.
