The 7 to 17 tier in my rankings is very interchangeable. The fact that teams 7 through 14 in last week’s rankings went 0-7 this week (Carolina was off) didn’t help. I just have no clue, so please don’t berate me if you think I misplaced one or two of those teams. The difference between them is about as minimal as it can be between 11 teams in the NFL.
