Take a look at how they voted...link here....pictured below...

How the **** did that guy vote for the Saints at #6?!?!? I mean, I know they are probably better than their record, but wow, that is rather ridiculous.

Also, I'm no math expert, but how is it, that our lowest vote would be #23, yet that's our final ranking? Most of the other voters have us around the #21 range?

This is all just weird.
 
Also note, that our man Tim Graham, formerly covered the Dolphins, now does the AFC East blog, gave us the low vote of #23. **** you Tim!!!
 
splitting hairs there bro.

Lets just be glad we're not 32.

it what seem that medians and modes have been thrown by the wayside.

This idiot has the Saints 6th and the Eagles 9th.

All the 'experts' rankings combined has us at a median of 22nd BTW :)
 
You have to average out everything and then rank them...

Team Avg
NYG 1.083333 TEN 2.25 WAS 3.25 DAL 4.25 PIT 4.833333 CAR 6.25 DEN 7.333333 BUF 8.583333 NE 9.666667 CHI 12 IND 12 PHI 13.08333 TB 14.33333 ARI 15.75 BAL 15.83333 SD 16.66667 JAC 17.83333 NYJ 18 MIN 18.33333 ATL 18.41667 GB 18.41667 NO 18.58333 MIA 19.66667 SF 23.83333 CLE 25.33333 SEA 26.16667 OAK 27.58333 HOU 28 KC 28.91667 CIN 29 DET 31.08333 STL 31.66667
 
Did anybody notice that the 4th person ranked us 12th? We're the first team he ranked that isn't exactly in line with the overall rankings they have. Every one of his top 11 match the averages.

I think that guy knows what he's talking about.:D
 
I wish people would stop caring so much about people's opinions. Relax...someone said we are 12th....nobody says thats ridiculous right? No need to crucify anyone...we win this week, we should be in the teens in all of their opinions, does that change anything to how our team performs? no.

These ratings are just for fun people....this isnt college

that would kinda kill the message board, no? What would we discuss if noone cared enough about others' opinions to comment on them?

12th is lowest.
 
Miami should be right next to Baltimore.....they are every bit as good as Baltimore as on overall team....no just Defensively
 
I'm not sure how we can be rated so much lower than two teams we've beaten.....One of whom we clubbed like a bunch of baby seals.....That said, I don't think those ratings are that far off base for us.
