Season archive
2016
John Pitt took the 2016 title. The league was still being run on a spreadsheet: what remains of the season is the commissioner's own table of final records, and 65 of the 85 games his table counts survive.
The league did not move to Sleeper until 2018, so there is no game-by-game record of 2016. Two different things survive, and they are not equally complete.
The commissioner's own table of final records is complete — he wrote it down at the time, and it is what the standings below are. It is a stated fact, not a sum over surviving games, which is why it can name every one of the 12 teams with a real record.
The game log is not. 65 games from 2016 survive in it, against the 85 games that table counts, and they are not a random sample: the commissioner logged the games he judged notable at the time — close finishes, big scores — and left the rest. So the section below is a list of surviving games, not a week-by-week account of the season, and no season total, average or streak anywhere on this site is built from it.

Final records
Stated, not derived2014-2017 survive as roughly 200 of about 340 games, curated by the commissioner for being notable rather than sampled at random. Every derived column here -- all-play, expected wins, luck, efficiency, median record, top-score weeks -- is computed over EVERY week of a season. Computed over a curated subset it would not be a rougher figure, it would be a different and wrong one, so these seasons show the record that was written down and nothing derived from a log that is missing its quiet weeks. Team totals run past the 13-week regular season, so playoff results are counted in them. Ordered by wins, then by points scored — the league's own tiebreak.

The games that survive
65 gamesThis is not a week-by-week account of 2016. It is every game the commissioner wrote down that year, in week order — 65 of them, chosen at the time for being worth remembering rather than sampled evenly across the season. A week showing one game is a week he recorded one game from, not a week the league played one game in.
