This graph is inverse to my stress levels while being a Chiefs fan this year.
Two small things I want to point out, the third place team I am pretty sure is the Chicago Cardinals, not the Bears. Also the 6th place 49’ers were in the AAFC in 1948, not the NFL( I don’t count it the same way I count the pre merger AFL teams)
The 24 Lions being high on this list is cool. Pulling for them to win it all if(when) the Falcons get eliminated.
Oh fun, Minnesota is on here three times, including the second highest!
The lions, FROM THIS YEAR, are ranked 14th
In order to keep things fair, you should have used data points that started from the 1st superbowl.
Will be that much sweeter when they blow it in the playoffs.
There’s a saying on Wall Street: I rather hire a lucky guy than a smart guy. Creating your own luck is considered a skill.
The 2023 eagles are ahead of the chiefs which does not bode well for the chiefs.
Now show the data factoring in strength of schedule for these teams.
The Chiefs already have six wins over likely playoff teams this year, which if the Chiefs lost every game from here on out, would probably be far and away the most in this year’s playoffs anyway.
Why is the horizontal axis facing one way and the data over the bars the other
The chiefs should be maybe 7-3 at best.
Watching the Chiefs this year is the equivalent of that scene from The Incredibles where the kid on the bike is waiting for him to do something amazing.
If the refs actually just called a few holds on their line that holds every damn play they would be like 6-5
