And the Bills are at 139-55, so with a number like 135 you know there's some weird shit at say >130 and <60, or the other way.

The team that came to mind in terms of point differential was the 14-2 Ravens team... and damn, scored 59 in week 1. After 4 weeks they were 155-80, exactly the same +75 point differential as their metric. And they lost in the divisional round to the Titans.

Ahhh.... the 2021 Bills were 134-44..... so THAT's why they chose 135 and 60.
