The Saints have just clinched their division and the Colts are 1 win away from getting homefield advantage through the AFC playoffs. The Patriots have fallen from the top 10 for the first time.
Biggest Rise: Miami Dolphins beat some team and rose 5 places to the lucky 13 spot.
Biggest Drop: Patriots dropped 4 places.
Average Adjusted Score for the NFL: 67.03 AA
AFC's Division Rankings:
North: 79.65 Adjusted Average

Overall Division Rankings:
AFC North: 79.65 AA
AFC West: 74.75 AA

NFC South: 71.23 AA
AFC North: 64.58 AA
NFC North: 62.25 AA

Before all the Phin fans jibjab...
…the reason you’re not in the “contender” tier is because of your loss to the Bills.
If it makes you feel any better, the Pats are at the end of the Contender tier.
I just asked it as a question last time lol
Don't question my fandominium.

Haha I know....
…but it was a preemptive post for when a different Phin fan drops by and wonders why.
Is the paper bag tier getting bigger?
You secretly have stocks in a paper-bag company, don’t you?
You might have to make a lower tier – plastic bag over head. Population – Browns + Rams (still think the Rams would take the Browns – at the very least Steven Jackson would get yards).

More people keep dropping below the 0 point!
And everyone knows that paper-bag stocks are on the rise.

Only two weeks ago you though they were too low at #6 ;)
One way to look at this, we’ve only lost to 2 undefeated teams, a playoff team and 2 division rivals. It’s not as if we lost to any bad teams. Of course it would be nice to have a good win on our resume, but at least we don’t have any bad losses. The teams below us all have bad losses.
