I can't promise there is no causal relationship between the patch and the 7-game trends you are seeing. But if I were a betting man, I'd pretty much bet the house against it.
Totally. That’s why I want to emphasize that this is appearance-only at this point. Moreover, I backup my game each game-month as a matter of principle and I wanted to test this out, so I loaded my backup.

Through a quick-sim of the games, the record was 5 - 4 over 9 games with a smattering of scorelines, so everything looked fine there. As a final test, I’m replaying those 9 games using the backup and I’m through the first two with typical and decent results.

As of right now, this strikes me as at coincidence for my team hitting a slump with the timing of the patch. But, I wanted to post in case there were other folks experiencing it too. Since it looks isolated, I won’t worry.
