There’s a clear and obvious frontrunner in the NFC. The Philadelphia Eagles came a little too close to blowing it against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 9, but — at the end of the day — they’re 8-1 and pacing the field in their conference.
But who’s the best in the absolutely stacked AFC?
The Kansas City Chiefs are the defending NFL champs, but the Baltimore Ravens are steamrolling opponents as of late, the Jacksonville Jaguars have won five straight, and the Cincinnati Bengals have left their 1-3 start long in the rear view mirror.
There’s so many tough teams in the conference that the Buffalo Bills, a team with double-digit wins in each of the last four season, are currently on the outside looking in after dropping to a really not-so-bad 5-4 on the year.
The Eagles’ one-loss record keeps them on top of the league for now, but after Philadelphia, it’s all AFC. Here’s how the league stacks up with Week 10 on the way:
