And, because we're at a quarter-poll of the NFL season (every team has now played 4 games), here is a(n all too-early) look at the AFC playoff picture:

A quick primer on what all of this information is:

Team, W(ins), L(osses), T(ies), and Pct (winning percentage) are all self-explanatory. 

The Conference and Division records are separated into separate columns for Wins/Losses/Ties. This was purely a formatting move designed to help me update the tables more efficiently. 

PF - Points For (points scored by the team for the season)

PA - Points Against (points scored by the team's opponents for the season)

Pythag% - Pythagorean winning percentage - this is based on PF and PA

RoS SOS - Rest of Season Strength of Schedule 

Interesting bits of information:

• The current 6 playoff teams include 4 of the 6 top teams in the AFC by pythagorean win percentage: the Patriots (1), Steelers (2), Broncos (3), and Ravens (6). The Bills (4) are currently just outside the playoff picture, and the Chargers (5) are 1-4, having failed to close out a game against anyone but Jacksonville. The Raiders are 7th in the conference by pythagorean numbers, and the Texans are 12th. 
• The toughest remaining schedule in the AFC belongs to the Jaguars. The toughest remaining schedule of a team currently in playoff position belongs to the Ravens. 
• The easiest remaining schedule in the AFC belongs to the Titans. Of current playoff teams, it's Pittsburgh.
