Re: After Week 6
 

No ranking will ever be perfect. It will tighten up as the season progresses because the stats will "web" together tighter. It does take into consideration how a team played against each opponent based on scoring but not whether it won or lost against them. For example, right now SD is higher than Pitt and Pitt beat them on the road. Same goes for Pitt and New England. New England beat them on the road. It takes into account every game rather than each individual game.

Bah, it's jsut interesting. And as I said, it will tighten up as more games are played and the tangled "web" becomes tighter. For now, it is what it is.

Re: After Week 7
 

Indy's schedule the rest of the season is killer though. Jax twice, NE, SD, Philly, Seattle, Cincy, Pittsburgh. That's 8 hard games out of nine the rest of the way. Ok, so Seattle isn't as good as NE, which isn't as good as the other teams, but the Colts are going to have to prove their mettle down the stretch.

These numbers seem to get more ridiculous each week.

That's some funny stuff.

Re: After Week 7
 

Interesting concept. I think your top 5 look pretty good, although I don't think JAX belongs, and I think Cincy should maybe be in there. NE should def. be higher, but I understand why they wouldn't be according to your formula.

I'm not sure what the Pats have done to deserve this though. At this point New England is considered good simply because they have done it before. I'm not saying they don't deserve the benefit of the doubt, but they have done nothing this year to look like an elite team.
