Eh. The high SOS is the result of three playoff teams in our division. And even then it is not THAT overpowered.
If you wanted to see REAL SOS issues you have to go back before realignment and before the scheduling formula. Those were the days when the schedulers (and back then it was all up to them) would give Super Bowl teams schedules with W-L percentages in the .300s and in a couple of them the Bengals got the hardest schedule in the NFL - in the 90s no less.
