What they do is look at the most recent games and base their predictions on that. In the Chiefs, though short due to injuries and a hobbled Mahomes, they saw a game where neither team played particularly well and one team got by on a FG at the gun. Then they watched the Eagles dominate a team that had been dominating everyone else for the last 10 games or so.
95% of the people on TV don't know their asshole from a hole in the ground and they especially don't know how to break down a team vs their opponent.
Everything you watch, you should take with a grain of salt and a chuckle because a large percentage of the time, they have no idea what they're talking about. If you're watching it to see if your favorite team is getting respect or not, you're likely to be disappointed because the "best team", in their mind, is usually based on what they did 'last week'.

Its true.
If a team has a good couple of weeks, or a big game on national television (like the Chargers beating the dolphins), you'll likely wake up to the media saying "Watch out for the Chargers!!"
