PatternMaster Posted July 7, 2017 Report Share Posted July 7, 2017 I had some free time so I decided to compile the various rankings of the different criteria for all of the NFL teams. For example, best QB, best WR corp, best OL, best DL, best coaching, best secondary, best running game, best passing combo, etc. My goal was to predict the final standings for all of the NFL based on these preliminary rankings. I used analytics sites like PFF and Football Outsiders and respected media sites Rotoworld and Sports Illustrated for the rankings, in total there are 8 data sets to rank each team. I took the combined rankings for each team and averaged them by the number of data sets and these are the results: Quote Team Ranking New England Patriots 1 Atlanta Falcons 2 Pittsburgh Stealers 3 Seattle Seahawks 4 Green Bay Packers 5 Arizona Cardinals 6 Dallas Cowboys 7 Minnesota Vikings 8 Oakland Raiders 9 Miami Dolphins 10 Cincinnati Bengals 11 Philadelphia Eagles 12 New Orleans Saints 13 New York Giants 14 Washington Redskins 15 Kansas City Chiefs 16 Tennessee Titans 17 Carolina Panthers 18 Tampa Bay Buccaneers 19 Los Angeles Chargers 20 Jacksonville Jaguars 21 Baltimore Ravens 22 Denver Broncos 23 Buffalo Bills 24 Houston Texans 25 Chicago Bears 26 Cleveland Browns 27 Indianapolis Colts 28 Los Angeles Rams 29 Detroit Lions 30 San Francisco 49ers 31 New York Jets 32 Here is the breakdown for the AFC: 1.New England Patriots 2.Pittsburgh Stealers 3.Oakland Raiders 4.Miami Dolphins 5.Cincinnati Bengals 6.Kansas City Chiefs 7.Tennessee Titans 8.Los Angeles Chargers 9.Jacksonville Jaguars 10.Baltimore Ravens 11.Denver Broncos 12.Buffalo Bills 13.Houston Texans 14.Cleveland Browns 15.Indianapolis Colts 16.New York Jets Based on these computations the Bengals would be competing with the Dolphins and Chiefs for a Wild Card spot, with the Bengals slightly edging the Chiefs for the #6 spot. Here is the breakdown for the NFC: 1.Atlanta Falcons 2.Seattle Seahawks 3.Green Bay Packers 4.Arizona Cardinals 5.Dallas Cowboys 6.Minnesota Vikings 7.Philadelphia Eagles 8.New Orleans Saints 9.New York Giants 10.Washington Redskins 11.Carolina Panthers 12.Tampa Bay Buccaneers 13.Chicago Bears 14.Los Angeles Rams 15.Detroit Lions 16.San Francisco 49ers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
