Explanations
- I still want to raise Baltimore up another tier, and since they are healthy again I feel like it’s a safe decision… but I want to see them take care of business once or twice more.
- I think Miami is the most underrated team in football. They by solid margins and beat the teams they should. Since week 1, the only team they have lost to with less than 10 wins are Seattle (9 wins) and Denver.
- Buffalo is in the same boat as Miami. Outside the hailmary lose to Arizona, their only loses are to Kansas City and Tennessee.
- I want to add Indianapolis to that boat. Outside week 1, they have only had loses to good opponents, but they lose big. All their losses have been by 7 or more.
