Yeah, we know Bill Parcells said "You are what your record says you are."

But which to teams do you feel are not what their record says they are?

Better than record: Cardinals only because Kyler Murray is back

Worse than record: Steelers whose luck will run out any week now. Right guys? Any week now.

Texans are better than their record. Holy shit CJ Stroud can ball, and he's really starting to gel with his receivers.

I'm gonna throw the Chiefs in the "worse than their record" category. They didn't score a point in the second half against Miami. They just haven't looked like world beaters this year.

My Pats are 2-8. I dunno if we're better or worse than our record, I just know we suck.

I feel like the 2 blowouts have warped everyone's opinion of the Pats because they were so awful but this is closer to a 5-5 team than a 0-10 team.

We have probably the worst offensive line in the league, and probably the worst receiving corp. And Mac isn't close to good enough to overcome that.

But you are correct. There were 3 games that I can remember where we had the ball on the final drive down by less than a score and we failed for whatever reason. A better offense would have scored.

Chiefs are weird. You watch them this year and you don’t really see anything special, but they just win. I think their defense is really holding them together right now
