Due to the 4 opponants Dallas played who's strengths were better then the 4 teams the Skins played Dallas gets the #9 spot.
Basically Dallas won by like .5 of a point or something like that.

Right, except that its reverse strength of schedule. So teams with tougher schedules pick later, the assumption being if team A has an easier schedule, and ties with team B who has a harder schedule than Team A is the "more bad" team. Thus Dallas had an easier schedule than ours ( the 2 teams different were dallas:arizona(5-11),new orleans(11-5) and skins:St.Louis(7-9),Tampa bay(10-6)), so by 1 combined win our SOS was harder than Dallas'. if it had been tied it would have been done by coin flip.
