Yeah. That's why I've always thought the strength of schedule comparisons were fairly meaningless. It only takes a key injury here or there, or a surprise breakout player or two here or there, or a great draft to throw a wrench into the projections.

The bottom line is, we are unable to withstand any wrench thrown at us. Another year, another chance to watch better teams play football in the playoffs.
