Sure, a 3 win team is on the same level as a 8 win team who already beat them by 17.

Makes sense

This isn't power rankings like you guys are thinking. It's based on point spreads as of the date it was compiled, all the guy did was put it in "graph" form.

What facts are those? This is literally just someone tabulating Vegas point spreads for the next few weeks and throwing it on a graphic.

The tweet is odd because it sez power rankings, but baldwin is full of weird analytic charts.

The chart itself clearly states "Betting Market Rankings for the NFL". If people would read and process things in totality before jumping to inventing reasons to feel disrespected the world would be much saner place.

Bottom line it's just another rather puzzling chart showing info that makes the creator look smart because most people don't understand it.

Truth in labeling? How much more clearly does it need to be spelled out?

I am responding in a thread where people feel spited because they didn't bother taking the time to read something before overreacting. Not sure I'm the one that needs to lighten up. As for "blowing up" the minutia nothing was altered, if you take the time to click the link this is what you you see.
