You never know... There are so many variables at play... Key injuries, schedules, etc.
Looking at the list of teams, I see a few possibilities:
Strength of Schedule from https://www.chatsports.com/nfl/a/20...-6-playoff-teams-and-patriots-get-lucky-39789
2. Broncos (.533)
Games against 10-win teams: 7; Games against playoff teams: 7
Yes, they have premier players on defense, but have a rookie HC with an old broken QB in a new system. With a few major injuries could be a bad team with a tough schedule
9. Vikings (.512)
Games against 10-win teams: 6; Games against playoff teams: 7
They still have a strong defense and talent on offense, but Zimmer is entering one of those years with a lot of pressure where you see some teams collapse, especially with Kirk Cousins having some struggles last year with a huge contract...
T-12. Cardinals (.508)
Games against 10-win teams: 6; Games against playoff teams: 6
Pretty barren of talent with either a 2nd year Rosen or a rookie QB with a HC that should be OC of USC right now...
T-19. Lions (.496)
Games against 10-win teams: 5; Games against playoff teams: 6
Beardo could see a revolt going into a Tannehill-esque QB situation
T-27. Bengals (.473)
Games against 10-win teams: 5; Games against playoff teams: 5
Major QB problems with a HC who should still be a QB coach somewhere...
T-27. Giants (.473)
Games against 10-win teams: 4; Games against playoff teams: 6
Got rid of a lot of talent and will likely be playing through Eli's swan song
For reference, Dolphins currently have the 18th most difficult schedule based on SoS (Though I think it will end up being more difficult than that looking at some of those teams, including the Browns on the schedule)
18. Dolphins (.498)
Games against 10-win teams: 6; Games against playoff teams: 7
