Race wins have nothing to do with how many teams you beat, which is the point of any sport. Going 10-6 in the NFL would be equivalent to having an average finish of about 16.125 in NASCAR, which typically would be on the cusp of getting into the playoffs in either sport. Rusty Wallace's performance this year, in a winless season, is roughly equivalent to an NFL team going 12-4, or a MLB team going 119-53.
