Brutality Index - Final 2008 Season Standings

I have compiled the Week 17 final season standings for the Brutality Index. This index rates teams based on how well they did the next week after they played a team. For instance, out of the 16 teams that played the Titans, only 3 teams won the next week. Yikes.

Minnesota won after their Week 4 loss, Indianapolis won after their Week 8 loss and Pittsburgh won after their Week 16 loss. That's it. Everybody else lost the next week. I wonder what the Colts will do against the Chargers since they just played the Titans. I can't see the Colts losing to the Chargers though.
