I mean, the Colts won at SF, beat Seattle, beat Denver, played at SD. We haven't played anything close to that difficult a schedule. Even Miami at home isn't a bad team.

Crazy. Its apparently better to lose to a good team than beat a bad one.
I guess we won't win the Sagarin Lombardi this year. |

Sagarin Pure Points match up well with NFL lines. Despite our "ranking", we'd be a favorite over any team in the NFL at home according to his Pure Point (only one that matters) rating. Seems okay to me.

It does, which is why it's still odd to me the spread was only 6.5 when Houston is 10 behind us in that metric. Granted the Fasano goal line review would've made it an 8 point game.

I don't know. You can't just look at our schedule and say it's weak. I mean Dallas went up to the wire against Peyton and would've probably won the game had Romo not thrown the pick. The Texans were the first ranked defense, and the Titans on the road are no joke either with their Defense. I would at least put us top 5.

I think the data shows quite conclusively our schedule is weak. Maybe I'm just being overly cautious about our team after decades of being let down. If we split with Denver and SD I'll be a true believer.

According to the Simple Rating System, our team total is only 7.5. That is comprised of 8.2 for defense, and -0.7 for offense.
Denver is 11.6. 19.5 offense and -7.6 defense. Colts are 10.0. 3.8 offense and 6.2 defense. |

Fell another slot to #10. Replaced by Cinci who moved up to 8. We still have the worst schedule obviously, and a team between the Rams and Vikings (quality wise) would be expected to be .500 in his rating.
We have still only played one top-16 team, Dallas who is 7th. |
