Re: No love for Ol' DC
Bill Simmons also tried to say that the NFC East wasn't really the toughest division, but he offered no answer to who it really is.
It got me thinking about it, and maybe the NFCE doesn't have the best teams in the NFL, or even the NFC, but can any of the teams be considered weak? No. Are any of the teams push-overs? No. As it stands now, would any coach in the NFL count out an NFCE team before they play them? No.
Look at each {arguably} the weakest team(s) in each other division: NFC North - Green Bay, Detroit; West - San Fran, St Louis; South - New Orleans AFC East - Jets, Buffalo; North - Cleveland; West - Oakland; South - Houston, Tennessee.
Can you really say that any of the NFC East teams wouldn't be in the mix for the top team if it was in one of these divisions? NO!
