Heading into the final quarter of 2014, who is the best team in the NFL?

[tk13]

We did this at the halfway point. Might as well at the 3/4 mark. Four games to go... 21 teams still within a spot of the playoffs.

AFC

1) New England 9-3
2) Denver 9-3

3) Cincinnati 8-3-1
6) Miami 7-5

4) Indianapolis 8-4
5) San Diego 8-4

Kansas City 7-5
Buffalo 7-5
Baltimore 7-5
Pittsburgh 7-5
Cleveland 7-5
Houston 6-6

NFC

1) Arizona 9-3
2) Green Bay 9-3

3) Philadelphia 9-3
6) Detroit 8-4

4) Atlanta 5-7
5) Seattle 8-4

Dallas 8-4
San Francisco 7-5
New Orleans 5-7

[Hammock Parties]

Pretty sure it's Green Bay.

NE and Denver are fading. I think the Colts will overcome this year.

[Why Not?]

Pretty clearly the Packers.

[cdcox]

Denver or GB

Denver's emerging running game is going to make them tough.

[keg in kc]

Has to be the Packers right now.

[Hootie]

Green Bay or Seattle.

whoever gets home field between Denver or NE probably goes to the Super Bowl and loses to either of the aforementioned teams

Seattle getting hot again.

[Mile High Mania]

I don't think there is one team clearly above the rest. I believe GB, NEP and DEN could all stake a claim and each really needs home field. They are the three best at this point.

[Rain Man]

Rodgers. Er, I mean Green Bay.

[Hootie]

Seattle beat Denver. I guess Mile High Mania forgot already.

[tk13]

18 teams have a winning record, and there are only two games separating #1 and #18. That's pretty tough.

[keg in kc]

18 teams have a winning record, and there are only two games separating #1 and #18. That's pretty tough.Real parity. A bunch of teams between 6-10 and 10-6, a few better than that, a few worse.

[Hootie]

I'm very intrigued with the Seattle / Philly game Sunday. Personally, I think Seattle just rapes Sanchez. He made a lot of questionable throws against Dallas on Thursday that Dallas didn't really take advantage of. That isn't going to work against Seattle, who appears to be hot right now.

I bet Seattle wins that game pretty comfortably ... and if they do, they are pretty much a lock for the 2 seed because they won't lose another game after that.

I have a $20 bet riding on the Seahawks in that game with my roommate, who is an Eagles fan.

Caught him while he was talking shit after beating up on the Cowboys. I'm feeling pretty comfortable about that bet.

[TimeForWasp]

Clearly the raiders. They win the Draft.

[Mav]

Gb/ne are the two best

[Gadzooks]

Green Bay's overrated. They have a weak defense.

[Gadzooks]

The best team would probably be Green Bay's offense with Buffalo's defense.

[Garcia Bronco]

Greenbay
Pats
Broncos
Eagles/Colts

[Coochie liquor]

I voted GB but that can change from week to week.

[scho63]

My Top 3:

1. New England
2. Green Bay
3. Eagles-(I know I know with Mark Sanchez but they impressed the hell out of me in Dallas)

[ptlyon]

So philly has a chance to go to the SB two years removed from firing Reid?

Interesting, I must say.

[Mile High Mania]

Seattle beat Denver. I guess Mile High Mania forgot already.

They've done that twice actually... but SEA lost to both KC and SD, Denver is 3-0 against those 2 teams. +1 Den

[PizzaDoughz]

Green Bay's overrated. They have a weak defense.

That seems a bit lazy tbh. A lot of people say that, but have you actually seen them play lately? They held the Patriots pretty well and their run defense is improving as of late it appears

[Mile High Mania]

I don't think there is one team that screams legit #1 contender right now. They all have fatal flaws.

[PizzaDoughz]

I don't think there is one team that screams legit #1 contender right now. They all have fatal flaws.

Just because the Broncos are not the #1 contender right now doesn't mean there isn't one. Green Bay is the consensus #1 team at the moment.

[Pablo]

I think GB has to be the favorite at the moment. NE and Denver follow them up.

I do enjoy that there are five Chiefs votes in this poll.

Well done gentlemen.

LMAO

[Mile High Mania]

Just because the Broncos are not the #1 contender right now doesn't mean there isn't one. Green Bay is the consensus #1 team at the moment.

I'm not viewing it through that lens at all. I'd love to see a Denver/Packers matchup... two crazy offenses.

[jkw87]

Yeah, it has to be Green Bay/New England with Seattle and Denver following it up. That's top four to me... Five would probably be Philadelphia/Indianapolis. I would have once said Kansas City, but Reid has went full retard and Sutton is back to last year's form.

[TEX]

I think it's New England followed by Green bay. I know Green Bay just beat them, BUT I bet if the game would have been played in New England, the Patriots win. I think on a neutral field, I'd take New England.

My top 5 are as follows:

1. New England
2. Green Bay
3. The **** Tards from Denver
4. Eagles
5. Colts

Kansas City 7-5
Buffalo 7-5
Baltimore 7-5
Pittsburgh 7-5
Cleveland 7-5
Houston 6-6

NFC

1) Arizona 9-3
2) Green Bay 9-3

3) Philadelphia 9-3
6) Detroit 8-4

4) Atlanta 5-7
5) Seattle 8-4

Dallas 8-4
San Francisco 7-5
New Orleans 5-7

That Raider game was and will be a KILLER.

[Mile High Mania]

I think it's New England followed by Green bay. I know Green Bay just beat them, BUT I bet if the game would have been played in New England, the Patriots win. I think on a neutral field, I'd take New England.

My top 5 are as follows:

1. New England
2. Green Bay
3. The **** Tards from Denver
4. Eagles
5. Colts

I think that's why I say there's not a true #1 contender - I think all those teams likely defeat the others in their home stadiums, likely lose on the road. I'd still rank the Colts over the Eagles. I think the Patriots lose at SD this week.

I think you're big right but I'd take the under on that game. Seems like the Eagles D is picking up, and they play better at home.

[TLO]

Bucs.

[stevieray]

.....ya. crazy.

[MahiMike]

After what I saw the other night and the fact that Denver has a running game, it's Denver. They could actually win the whole thing with that D and running game.

[jimidollar]

Just because they stomped our group of retards doesn't mean anything.

[Rausch]

Seattle
Denver
Green Bay...

[Sweet Daddy Hate]

Damn. Look at that Sanchez-led Eagles team.

Mmm...embarrassing.
