    I've used this for a few years as an excellent at-a-glance view of the season. This is the first time they've included these "quality / importance / overall" ratings.

    I root for the Seahawks but generally don't follow any off-the-field news, so this is going to be extremely helpful in picking out interesting games to watch. I have YouTube TV set to record them all so knowing which games will be interesting without spoiling the outcome is great.

    Anecdotally, I think these ratings hold up, I watched the Browns/Chiefs game last night and its 90/100 quality score was spot-on.

    They also have a longer page explaining their methodology.
