So we have the hardest schedule of the five teams tied for the same won/loss record and we get the 15th pick instead of the 11th?

The Saints, who finished 7-9 this season, were in a five-way tie for the 11th-worst mark in the league. But they were pushed to the bottom of that group — which also includes San Diego, Miami, Tampa Bay and Carolina — on the strength-of-schedule tiebreaker.

Saints’ opponents this season posted a 133-122-1 record for a .521 winning percentage.

San Diego (.457 opponents’ winning percentage) got the 11th pick, followed by Miami (.500), Tampa Bay (.502) and Carolina (.516).

Why strength of schedule matter if a team swept you; if anything you look @ strength of schedule if it was a split & w/l are the same.
