For the AFC, AFC NORTH. (Steelers,Ravens,Browns,Bengals) For the NFC, NFC EAST. (Cowboys, Giants, Eagles, Redskins) The AFC NORTH has had two good teams maybe only one ,excluding the 2000 Ravens . The Bengals have been terrible for years and the Browns even Worse. HOW CAN THIS BE ONE OF THE ANSWERS? My question is based on history.Yes through the 80's,90's,2000's, the NFC EAST has been tough.But the Ravens were not added till later and the Pittsburgh Steelers had many medocre teams only to win and make the playoffs because of THIS LOUSY DIVISION! Their job was easy,because they had 4-6 automatic wins because of divisional opponents!
