I guess the other ones are weird af, but I wouldn't say much about Brazil being #1, given that I actually think they're gonna win that tourney next year. |
But the ranking is not about future years but the past 4 years.

The joke is that Germany just won the Confederations Cup one month ago, got #1 and now they are back to #2, while Brazil didn't play a match since June.
Also in the mean time, Argentina made it to 3 finals and Chile won 2 Copa Americas.
