Probably worse though because their QB has no playoff experience and is known to blow big games. Reason why he is a backup after being a starter and only a starter by default. He won't be a starter next year after tanking this game because that is what backups do.

I think they are number 1 overall

You have to take into consideration their opponents. They had six games against their weak division mates (5-1), four games against the AFC North including the Browns, Bengals and reduced Ravens (3-1) and four versus the NFC South including the Bucs and the Saints before we got our feet under us. That was a pretty soft schedule which would skew stats in their favor.
