new england's strength of schedule has been rightfully acknowledged as terrible, but lately it has come back to the pack a bit as they've played baltimore / philadelphia / dallas / houston in the past 4 weeks.
buffalo's however has been unbelievably garbage.
this is a super rudimentary way of looking at strength of schedule, but this is a summary of each team's opponents' combined point differential (while extracting the point differential of the team itself):
1. cleveland +414 <--- this is crazy. they've only played 3 teams with a negative point differential (nyj, denver, miami)
2. cincinnati +250
3. seattle +240 <--- seattle has been super lucky. 10-2 record with only a +36 pt differential. 5 wins by a total of 11 points
4. houston +196
5. miami +181
6. baltimore +178 <---- they're a spaceship. 10-2 with a +187 point differential, against a combined opponent diff of +178

28. la chargers -167
29. detroit -168
30. indianapolis -209
31. ny jets -303

wouldn't be surprised if buffalo finishes 1-3 vs baltimore, @pittsburgh, @new england, vs nyj
