Let's rank the best NFL divisions this season: NFC North over the NFC West at No. 1?

THIS IS GOING TO BE EVERYWHERE TOMORROW BECAUSE AFTER THE SEAHAWKS LOST TO THE BRONCOS ON THURSDAY NIGHT TO KICK OFF WEEK SIX WE ARE LOOKING AT THE NFL DIVISION RANKINGS AND IT IS CHAOS. ESPN HAS A TOOL CALLED THE FOOTBALL POWER INDEX BUT THE WRITER IS ACTIVELY DISAGREEING WITH IT TO RANK THE NFC NORTH AT THE TOP SPOT. SUPPOSEDLY THEY ARE CHASING THIS DREAM OF A FOUR-TEAM PLAYOFF SWEEP WHICH IS ZERO FOR SIX SO FAR SINCE THE LEAGUE EXPANDED THE POSTSEASON. RIGHT NOW THE NFC NORTH AND AFC NORTH ARE THE ONLY DIVISIONS WHERE EVERY TEAM IS ACTUALLY WINNING BUT ONLY ONE DIVISION MIGHT ACTUALLY SEND THE WHOLE SQUAD TO THE PLAYOFFS IF THE SEASON STOPPED RIGHT NOW. IT IS JUST MATH AND OBSESSION. OK LAST ONE AND THEN WE DANCE.

ESPN's latest NFL division rankings highlight that the NFC North and AFC North are currently the only two divisions where every team has a winning record during the 2026 season.
