Rank the NFL Divisions
This is something to consider in fantasy drafts when it comes down to picking between two middle of the road players. Obv you want the player (if both are a toss up) who plays in the weaker division. So lets rank....
Here is a list of each division: AFC East Miami Dolphins New York Jets New England Patriots Buffalo Bills AFC North Pittsburgh Steelers Baltimore Ravens Cleveland Browns Cincinnati Bengals AFC South Tennessee Titans Jacksonville Jaguars Houston Texans Indianapolis Colts AFC West Oakland Raiders Denver Broncos San Diego Chargers Kansas City Chiefs NFC East Dallas Cowboys Philadelphia Eagles Washington Redskins New York Giants NFC North Chicago Bears Detroit Lions Green Bay Packers Minnesota Vikings NFC South Atlanta Falcons Tampa Bay Buccaneers New Orleans Saints Carolina Panthers NFC West Seattle Seahawks San Francisco 49ers St. Louis Rams Arizona Cardinals List Toughest to Easiest

Re: Rank the NFL Divisions
AFC North
AFC South NFC East AFC East NFC West AFC West NFC North NFC South Maybe. I dunno. Really this is irrelevant; you should be looking at the player's entire schedule with regard to the defenses they play and what position they play. For example, an NFC North RB has to play the Vikings twice which is bad, but it's ok for a WR/QB because the Vikings' pass defense is terrible.

Re: Rank the NFL Divisions
Yah. Also the Bengals are part of what makes the AFC North "tough" but their defense stinks.
Playing 1/4 of his games vs. the Steelers/Ravens has to hurt a guy like Rudi Johnson though.

Re: Rank the NFL Divisions
AFC North is overrated. Bengals were a .500 team that missed the playoffs last year. They are definitely talented and can play with anyone, but until they win some playoff games they're not a true contender. Steelers have a first year head coach, and first year coaches (esp. w/no prior HC experience) traditionally struggle a bit. Ravens aren't getting any younger, and McGahee is going to be a bust for them. Browns obviously aren't really competitive.
Oh, and yah, this isn't that useful for fantasy, but it's still fun to talk about.

[ QUOTE ] Really this is irrelevant [/ QUOTE ] [/ QUOTE ] Perhaps, but so is pretty much everything else in this forum. Sports fans come here to blow off steam and talk about stuff that doesn't really matter all that much. I really don't see how this is more irrelevant than anything else here. (Not a slight at the forum in any way.)

Re: Rank the NFL Divisions
Surprised people have AFC South as such a good division. After the Colts it's all garbage. Texans are obv a joke, Jaguars will never go anywhere with that group of joke QBs, and I really think the Titans caught a flash in the pan luck streak for a stretch last year. They just don't have that much talent, and teams will get used to scheming for VY.
