Yes, the higher the number the stronger the schedule. Basically right now we are tied at around .506 SoS. We will play the Bengals who are 0-11, and the Eagles, the Giants, the Jets, and the Patriots. The Redskins will play the Packers, the Panthers, the Giants, the Cowboys and the Eagles.
We will both play the Giants and the Eagles, so those will cancel out. That leaves:

MIA - Patriots (10-1), Jets (4-7), Bengals (0-11) Remaining Opponents Record: 14-19 or 14/33 or .424
WAS - Packers (8-3), Cowboys (6-6), Panthers (5-6) Remaining Opponents Record: 19-15 or 19/34 or .559

If we end up with same record as Redskins, 2-14, Skins have no shot to jump us in Tankathon standings because they will ultimately end up with a stronger SoS. And the main reason is we still have to play the Bengals.

Thanks dude that makes sense, so in essence lose out and we are at least #2, that's gonna be interesting.

That's not necessarily true. The final SOS will not be determined until all games have been played at the season's end. The SOS is fluid and changes every week, we may currently have the weaker sos but depending on how the teams do for the remainder of the season that may change. What you currently see is just a snapshot in time through week 12, each team has 5 remaining games which will certainly affect the final sos.
