MHR Staffer Power Rankings

USA TODAY Sports

With Tim finishing up his personal power rankings for the NFL the rest of us staffers felt we wanted to get in on the action. Now we didn't want to put in the work Tim did by writing a post for each team so what we did was just each make our own lists and then we'll include an average score as well so we have a staffer average.

So I've listed each staffers rankings along with the average for each team. With this I included the standard deviation which measures the variation between rankings. The higher the standard deviation the less agreement there was. So Arizona has a standard deviation of 3.61 while Buffalo has a standard deviation of 1.96. That doesn't mean Buffalo was ranked higher it just mean

So there you go, a few notes that I took:

- We actually agreed more about Atlanta than we did Denver
- Teams like Carolina, Kansas City, San Diego and St. Louis all have a high standard deviation, which makes sense since all those teams have huge potential (which some bought into) but also have huge concerns (which others believe in).
- Of the top teams we disagreed most about Seattle and Baltimore.
- Of the bottom teams we most disagreed about Titans and the Jets.

Well there you go, let us know who you agreed with most and who was just crazy. Obviously I doubt you'll agree with everything in their rankings, but who gets closest?
