texaspackerbacker;325390Who exactly would you predict Seattle to lose to - other than the Packers and maybe the Patriots?
The Seahawks have beat two teams, the Bears and Lions. Combine those teams have ... wait for it ... ONE SINGLE FREAKING W BETWEEN THEM!
They beat the Bears convincingly (as most others have) and should have lost against the Lions. Seahawks should be 1 - 3 right now.
Anyone putting Seahawks in top five is solely going off last season.
Give me any of these teams and I'd say any one of them has a good chance of plus one-ing them after four quarters.
Green Bay Packers
Arizona Cardinals
New England Patriots
Cincinnati Bengals
Carolina Panthers
Buffalo Bills
Tennessee Titans
New York Jets
Atlanta Falcons
Denver Broncos
San Diego Chargers

texaspackerbacker;325374Well, as I started from the top, I thought your rankings were starting to get sensible, but the farther down it got, the worse it got. I suppose you don't care to shed light on what weird stats gave you things like the Lions and Bears and Niners at the very bottom hahahahahaha, and the Titans so high. I'd take the Broncos vs. the Raiders at a lot more than 5.5. I will give you my rankings - based actually on POWER to defeat a lower ranked team - when I get back from playing tennis.
...
earthquake;325376It's passer rating differential, as has been mentioned multiple times before.
ding ding
texaspackerbacker;325381hahahaha Yeah Right. I'm back now and putting together my own "sophisticated algorithm".

So YOU would actually pick those teams to beat Seattle hahahahaha? As good as the Bengals have played, I'm picking Seattle to beat them this week. We'll see where they end up in your and my Power Rankings after that game. I bet they win and your silly "algorithm" STILL has them in double digits.

Well, I feel the obvious question needs to be asked:
Why not just call it Passer Rating Differential?
Why call it is a Power Ranking? [confused]

I'm surprised this wasn't brought up after the Seahawks blew that 4th quarter lead against the Bengals.
Also surprised the next power rankings aren't up lol

Honestly, I enjoyed doing them a lot, it was very fun.
Seems the loudest voices are ones saying they know how I'm compiling
the rankings (btw they are wrong) and having some telling me what I should call MY own rankings. That just ripped the fun out of it for me.

Never, and I mean never, let anyone stifle your creativity.
Those that make inane comments are are always the ones that like to "Talk the talk" but never "Walk the walk".
They have never dreamed the dream or just said "what if".
Live your life Z2C, the hell with the naysayers.
Now post your rankings, dammit. [thumbup]
