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.

NFL fans: "Good teams find a way to win the close games."

Also NFL fans: "Your team's a fraud because those close games could've gone either way."

Bonus peanut gallery perspective: "Your team should never ever play games close enough to let bad officiating dictate the outcome."

I mean do Steelers fans actually think their team is good? They seem like an overachieving young team with good defensive talent and atrocious offense being coached by a guy that is contractually obligated to play .500 or better.

Sneaking into the playoffs is definitely possible with the only locks seeming to be Baltimore, Miami, KC and one of the South teams. That leaves 3 WC spots for Cleveland (no QB), The South loser, the Chargers (the Chargers...), Cincinnati (who is underachieving), Denver (what the fuck is this team?) and Buffalo (who is beyond underachieving).

But do you feel like you'd give them even 2:1 odds against KC or Miami (I'll exclude Baltimore because weird shit happens in games against them)?
