I was close. They are on top of the second worse, after the NFC South, where literally every team had a losing season.
Well, depends on how one looks at it.
The NFC South finished with a combined record of 30-38.
The AFC North finished with a combined record of 29-39.
The NFC East finished with a combined record of 27-40-1.
True. I was looking at it from the perspective of the weakest winner of a division, but maybe not the weakest division overall.
Though by your measure that still puts the AFC North as the second weakest. ![]()
Well, good point!
To the surprise of nobody, the NFC West is the strongest by this metric, with a record of 41-27, which includes the Cardinals at 3-14. NFC North isn’t far behind, with a record of 38-29-1. That’s the only division with all four teams above .500.
