This assumes that a team would go .500 in future SBs. The only thing that I
took from it is who isn’t on the list. There are four teams who have never been
in a SB: Browns, Lions, Jaguars, and Texans. The latter two have an excuse in
that they haven’t been around that long. And one could argue that the Ravens
were the Browns, although that doesn’t help a fan from Cleveland.
Detroit though? Ugh. (NOTE: Both the Lions and the Browns won NFL championships
before the Super Bowl existed. But that’s even before my time, and I remember
my parents going to SB V in Miami.)

Since this list is ordered by "Games Behind", and you say the Steelers are in
first, are we to assume that a lower GB is better? So the Bengals would be
better than the Bills (but not as good as the Browns)?

This is neat:
If you apply the "Games Behind" formula, like you see every day during baseball
season (or football, or hoops, you get the idea), then the Steelers are in
first place.
