    THE BETTER CONFERENCE

    Before the season started some people on this board asserted the NFC was a much superior Conference to the AFC.

    Well through the first four games, the AFC has HAMMERED the NFC in interconference games.

    At this point it would appear the AFC is by far the Superior Conference.

    Let's see the AFC has:

    Denver
    New England
    Houston
    KC (surprise)
    Indy
    Cincy (Despite a slow start)
    Tennessee (although losing Locker hurts big)

    NFC
    Seattle
    San Fran
    Green Bay
    Nawlins
    Detroit
    Chicago
    Atlanta

    I kinda think they're even, strength wise. But we'll see how it plays out. Far too early in the season to really draw conclusions about any team. The Broncos are looking like they are shoe-ins as SB Champions. It rarely plays out that way.

      The Packers are 1-2 with one of their losses against the Bengals

      The Falcons are 1-3 and lost to both the Fins & Pats*

      So far the AFC looks like the better conference & both the Browns & Bills have a better record than those two teams

        OK, you make a good point. I just think the Packers and Falcons are still very good football teams and both are well coached. They will both make the playoffs.

        Remember when we were 5-1 a couple years back and then took a gigantic crap. Some of that was injuries, but I think a lot was we weren't that good and teams figured us out.

          Saying the Bills are better then the Packers and Falcons because they have one more victory after 4 weeks into the season is foolish.

            I actually think we're looking at one of the more balanced years in recent history. Denver is clearly the best team, but the rest of the top 5 is mostly NFC IMO. I think both playoff brackets are going to be tough and that once again we'll have a competitive Super Bowl.

                The AFC is Denver and everyone else.

                The North is so laughably bad that even the Browns could win it.

                  Once the Bengals get their crap together they will eventually win the division. And to think this was one of the best divisions in the AFC a couple years ago and was expected to be tough this year.

                  Then you have the NFC East where all the of "experts" in the media claimed it was one of the hardest divisions in football. That worked out real well considering the entire division has 4 wins through a month into the season.

                    The Bengals, fins, and Pats won't be making the Super Bowl. As long as Manning is healthy, it's going to be Denver.

                      You are joking right? EVERY team in the AFC North could beat the vast majority of teams in the NFC.

                      But then you were one of those that said the NFC was MUCH BETTER than the AFC before the season started.

                      Now the NFC East, that is a laughably bad division.

                        I did not say that the Bills were better, I just pointed out they have a better record at this point.

                        And speaking of the NFC EAST, the Chargers WHIPPED up the Cowboys.

                          The AFC North is already 2-3 vs the NFC North.

                          Now the NFC East, that is a laughably bad division.
                          It is.

                          I have learned my lesson and I will never bet on Manning in the playoffs.

                            2 of the 3 losses belong to the Steelers. I would say the NFC North is stronger than the AFC North.

                              Clearly, the AFC has matched up far better in interconference games than was expected before the season began.
                              I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.

                              I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.
