In Response To: How do you compare to the Giants? (mtuhtan)

If you want to compare the significance of luck vs. skill, isn't it a simple matter to analyze your matches against XG in which you played to an ER of, say, 5.0 or 7.0. Granted, XG plays better than any opponent you're likely to face, but even so, you will get a good idea of how much of the result was luck as opposed to skill. My money is on luck.

(Is there a flaw in this approach?)
