Super Bowl LIII Projection, Week 2, Sunday

Los Angeles Rams over Miami Dolphins

I always note the first point in each year when certain levels of championship chances are breached. The first is the 10% mark, reached for (I believe) the earliest point ever by the LA Rams. They shut out Arizona, giving them an extremely high strength, which you may recall is based on points scored and allowed.

In the AFC, Miami, Cincinnati, and Jacksonvillie are very close to each other. Each is the only 2-0 team in their respective divisions, and the top and bottom have strengths with less than a .001 difference. Cincinnati is actually the strongest team, but Miami seems to have a slightly easier schedule that bumps them into the top spot in the AFC.
