You're using an Isolated Single-Independent-Variable Statistical model to determine winning.

Not only do you require multiple other variables to have any shot at an accurate model for winning, but there are multiple ways of defining "how well you pass" and "how well you run".


The Cowboy are 5th in Passing Yards per Game. Are they the 5th best team?


The Broncos have the best Pass per Attempt Average. Are they the best team?
