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.

Steelers definitely worse than their record.

[–] Wilma_Tonguefit@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (3 children)

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.

Somehow it feels like the Bills are both better and worse than their record

[–] OldBrokeGrouch@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Not sure how the Steelers are 6-3 so that’s worse than record.

Denver at 4-5 is better than their record. They have improved dramatically. They have beaten 2 good teams and lost a couple of very close games that could have went either way. Also I’m bias.

Raiders would’ve been a win if Lutz didn’t get the yips his first game with us, and we blew a massive lead to the Commies (that Howell kid is good) and even with the 70-20 Miami thrashing, we should still be sitting at 6-3.

People keep looking at us as “easy dubs” on their schedules, when if every team does that we could sneak our way into some sort of win-and-in type situation Week 18

Buffalo’s defense deserves to probably be 10-0.
Its offense should be 3-7.

[–] Carolina_Bobcats@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Bobcats are worse than their record

[–] KloppsTotts@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

The Steelers and Eagles come to mine for being worse. Philly is probably the most overrated team in the league right now.

[–] Ceramicrabbit@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I honestly don't think we are above average lucky, the Browns have definitely benefitted from more luck than we have especially from officiating

[–] giantdonkeyballz@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

The jets are better than their record imo that defense is lock down they're winning games with a rag tag offense...let them make the playoffs with rodgers coming back and watch what happens

[–] True_Assumption_5812@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Chargers are better than their record

Baltimore is better than record. I hope Lamar gets a ring to match his MVP. Then people can fuck off with their RB jokes.

[–] Snugglebadger@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

At this point I have no idea what the Broncos are, but I'm hoping that the first few games of the season was a combination of rust from Payton being out of a locker room for a bit, and the team having new coaches and learning new schemes. Honestly, who knows. Other than the Chiefs, they haven't beaten any particularly good teams even since they started playing better a few weeks ago. And division rivalry games are weird, it seems like bad teams beat good division rivals all the time, probably because they know them so well. I guess we'll have to see how they do going forward.

[–] Salty_Orchid@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

We won't be making the playoffs but no team marks us as an easy win.

[–] slackator@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Bengals and Bills

[–] JuanSpiceyweiner@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Bengals are too up and down with a pedestrian defense that has zero pass rush outside of Trey Hendrickson.Some weeks we look like a true threat then we have games like the Tennessee game or Houston and just not good enough in the AFC to compete

[–] Tommah@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

The Steelers have been like that for a while. In 2020, they started the season 11-0, and everyone said, there's no way this team is really that good. They cruised into the playoffs and got bounced in the wildcard round.

[–] Fullofhopkinz@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Worse than their record: the Panthers

[–] Dark_Vortex18@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Vikings and Texans are better than their record and the Steelers and cowboys are worse than their record

[–] jjb8712@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Patriots are worse than their record

Texans are better than their record

[–] AfroZhelly@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago
[–] SnooMaps1910@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Niners are better than their record indicates.

[–] Illustrious_Ad_5169@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Chargers, Bills, and Vikings take the cake for me. The first 2 are wasting talent because of coaching, the Vikings had a crazy streak of turnovers to start the season.

I'm just happy to be here

Dolphins have only beat two teams with (at the moment) more than two wins. They have easily the weakest strength of victory in the league. They are not as good as their 6-3 record.

[–] KnowledgeJunkie7@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I think 5-5 is right where the Colts belong, but interestingly, I think how we got there is wrong.

We should have beaten the Browns (+1).

We could have beaten the Rams (boneheaded penalty by our defense to keep their opening drive alive)

We could have lost to the Patriots (They had some bad penalties and those interceptions at the end)

We should have lost to the Ravens (-1).

So we'd still be here at 5-5, just in a different way.

[–] poeazx@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

how are the steelers 6-3.

[–] fancyskank@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I think the Jags are worse than 6-3. Not terrible, just 5-4 or so. I firmly believe that this team has the potential to be great but we just cannot play to our potential. Even when we are clearly better than a team we always let them back into the game.

[–] Mrbubble274@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Better : 49ers are still a top tier team that were hurt by injuries

Worse: Jags are getting carried by very good coaching. Trevor Lawrence has not impressed me. Receivers have been inconsistent. They has some huge wins but i never watched a game and being really impressed.

It's so funny you mention the Steelers luck finally running out, cause they're basically having the same season as the Vikings did last year. Somehow winning a bunch of games they had no right winning

[–] jeffroavs@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Spot the Broncos 9 more well placed points and they’re a 7-8 win team right now.
