I don't care what metrics were used, this ranking is an utter joke. You are your record. McD has a team that has perhaps the best QB in the NFL and cannot construct, develop, and/or coach in-game a roster to take advantage--as a result, we are looking at a likely wildcard at best.
Also demonstrating that this is a joke/clickbait: Harbaugh only at 10, he lost his 100 starting RBs and is still in the AFC North race.
Bellicheat at 17, really? Might win the AFC East with an average QB. Built a roster perfect for such a QB. And Arians just beat McD, and won the SB last year.
