ESPN.com now has the conference standings table on their website, which includes the values for Strength of Schedule and Strength of victory. Shouldn't we add these to this table as well as at Template:2017 AFC standings? jd22292 (Jalen D.

I fixed AFC and I'll fix NFC after tonight's game.

On second thought, it seems way too complicated to do the tiebreakers this early in the season. Perhaps it would be more prudent to wait until week 5 or 6 when the standings and tiebreakers are a little more clear-cut. Until then I'll continue to update SOS/SOV and rank the teams according to ESPN's playoff machine.

Can we reverse the SOV and SOS Columns since the tiebreakers are broken as such?
