The Rankings are in. Interesting divergence from the rankings based on NFL.com where It's 1. Eagles (10-1) 2. Ravens (9-3) 3. Cowboys (8-3), however the Cowboys record is tied with Lions, Jaguars, Chiefs, Dolphins & 49ers. The #1 team is 7th in ANP. Follow us and the reason will be evident. #FootballisLife Rank Team Average Net Points 1 Dallas 14.7 2 San Francisco 12.7 3 Baltimore 11.4 4 Buffalo 8.4 5 Miami 8 6 Kansas City 6.8 7 Philadelphia 5.8 8 Detroit 3.3 9 Cleveland 2.7 10 Jacksonville 2.6

  NFL Intriguing Game of the Week Baltimore Ravens 8-3-0 @ LA Chargers 4-6-0 Bias+ Score 7 favors Baltimore Ravens By Barry Sterling Mitchell Once I declared on the Ben and Barry on Football™ show that the Ravens were my odds-on favorite to take the AFC, this game became very intriguing. This will be a statement game for the team that wins. I’ll explain later. First let’s look at the numbers. The Ravens in top 5 in Average Net Points (ANP) ranked 3 rd averaging +11.9 Net Points. This is their average win margin despite having lost 3 games. By comparison, the top ranked team by wins and losses are the Eagles at 9 &1. It’s illustrative of their season to see that they rank 7 th in ANP at +6.1. I remind everyone that this ranking is part of a study on the correlations of these stats to the Super Bowl Champion. Generally, it’s not the first-place team in Net Points but it’s usually one of the top 8. Offensively, the Ravens are under the microscope due to the new offensi

  NFL Intriguing Game of the Week Philadelphia Eagles (8-1) @ Kansas City Chiefs (7-2) Bias+ Score 0.1 favors Kansas City Chiefs By Barry Sterling Mitchell   I never make the ‘Intriguing’ game choice based on how big the game is. While this game is a huge Monday night event, that would not in itself qualify. What stood out to me as intriguing is that these teams have reached the same success as leaders of their conference but in very different ways. In particular what stood out was their rankings vs their record. Although they rank 1 st in their conferences based on win percentage. The Chiefs rank 5 th in Net Points averaging 7.2 Net Points while the Eagles rank 7 th with 6.3 Average Net Points (ANP). What this means is that although they win at a high rate, they are not winning by big margins. Plus, when I saw the Bias+ score of 0.1, this game became ultra intriguing. Even Vegas has it close with the Chiefs 2.5 point favorites.   First let’s review the stats of the
