Some times it's based on something else

Like division opponents and schedules.

The Rams, on paper, have about the toughest schedule in the league this year. We all know about half of the playoff teams change every year, so how tough the schedules look will also change as the season progresses.

If the Rams beat Buffalo on that Thursday night, I would wager that half of the network naysayers will flip to the Rams bandwagon.
