(Oct. 6, 2005) -- After just four weeks into the 2005 season, several teams are beginning to show their dominance. But what if some of those teams are in the same division? Then that will make for some interesting showdowns as the 2005 campaign rolls on.
So which division has the strongest grouping of four teams? The NFL.com experts try to show their dominance of football knowledge and came up with their answers. They know that one great team doesn't save a whole division, but on the flipside one great team can legitimize a couple of decent teams.
In the three full seasons of realignment, only two divisions have had the same champion all three times (Philadelphia and Green Bay), three of them have had two different champions, and three have had a different title holder all three times. That's says a great deal for competitive balance, and it says a lot for the quality of division.

NFL ping.
Eli's outstanding performance rounds out a division of good quarterbacks (McNabb, Bledsoe, Brunell).
It's not the AFC North. We only have two tough teams.
Pretty early to tell. NFC East is tight...but they're not exactly Black and Blue.
PAC-10
(points to the NFL in the topic title) :-P
You mean it's not the NFC North?
I second the NFC North, they are obviously leet footballers! /sacrasm
You beat me to it. Steelers/Bengals and 2 other scrubs.
Whatever happened to that "offensive genius" Billick down in Baltimore. Hell of a move to get rid of his Super Bowl winning QB (Trent Dilfer) a few years back, huh?
I not sure the NFC North could even rank as the toughest conference in the NCAA Division II this year.
How embarrassing, but how true!!!!
I here that Bethune Cookman has challenged the NFC North leading Bears.
No arguments here... I and my brother are loyal Packers fans...
you want to talk about a stomach turning season... and with the injury list growing by the hour.. it does not appear to be getting any better.
I actually determined that the NFC North champ could conceivably win the division with a 4-12 record. If every team goes 3-3 in the division and loses all their other games (Minnesota actually does have one win outside of the division, that's why 4-12 is the absolute worst possible division winning record). Let's see how close the winner actually gets to that record.
I think your being optimistic.AWB
LOL. I knew some FReeper would post the obligatory anti-NFC North wisecrack.
The NFC "Norris" (As Chris Berman used to say) couldn't compete in a high school league. Hopefully the Packers will win all their games and end up 12-4 (Yeah right)
Uh sir the bathroom is just down the hall on the right. Please pee in the cup and well get the results back to you shortly.AWB
