    I don't know the strength of all the teams and I am not going to develop my own power rankings. There are a couple of teams that kind of stand out to me and I wonder why they are ranked where they are.

    It would seem to me that Seattle should be a few notches lower. Perhaps trade places with KC.
    Also how can the bares be ranked lower than the win less Lions who they just beat?
    Houston at 24? Interesting.

Yes, it is the only metric that matters in the end, but sometimes a team can play someone missing key players or vice versa and skew things.

    Right now the Lions are seriously hurting the schedule of schedule measurements, as three of the easiest schedules face them, and they're not nessarily actually the easiest schedules, just the Lions bring the records really low.
