USA Today NFL Power Ratings - Guess Who's #1?

These NFL computer ranking take into account strength of schedule, home field advantage and score. I thought you might find what the computer thinks based on factors the human prognosticators rarely consider.

Check out Kansas City and you will find they may have played Tulane.

Have you heard that ESPN is asking Goodell to use their power rankings as a tool to help decide standings? If this keeps up football will die.

"The SCHEDULE ratings represent what the rating would have to be for a
hypothetical team to have a mathematical expectation of winning precisely 50%
of their games against the schedule played by the team in question in the games
that it has played so far."

Say what?

Bama should be number 1.

This is why Power Rankings in the NFL are crap.

They make up their own BS and try to make sense of it, lol.

The only thing that really matters is your actual record. Those don't lie and there is no controversy if a team is 5-1 your team is that 5-1
