Yeah, our schedule is better for sure.
I just saw the latest NFL.com rankings.
All 5 of our losses are to teams in the top 11...and 3 in the top 5.
Things do get more managebale going forward.
One key to that list you posted, as you know, is that it would only really be apples-apples if we all had the same record.
THREE of those teams have won TWO more games than we have. And another has won one more game.
So remove the two easiest games from our slate going forward, take an average of the remaining team records, and then you have a true measure.
