Introduction
The National Football League (NFL) is a professional American football league consisting of 32 teams, divided equally between the National Football Conference (NFC) and the American Football Conference (AFC). The NFL is one of the four major North American professional sports leagues, the highest professional level of American football in the world, the wealthiest professional sport league by revenue, and the sport league with the most valuable teams. The NFL’s 17-week regular season runs from early September to late December, with each team playing 16 games and having one bye week. Following the conclusion of the regular season, six teams from each conference (four division winners and two wild card teams) advance to the playoffs, a single-elimination tournament culminating in the Super Bowl, which is usually held on the first Sunday in February and is played between the champions of the NFC and AFC.
As of Week 11 of the 2018 NFL season, there are a total of 32 teams in the NFL. These are ranked according to their record in unison; meaning that a team with a 4-6 record would be ranked ahead of a team with a 3-7 record. As such, there can only be one number one team at any given time. The current number one team is listed below.

The Team’s Schedule
During the NFL regular season, each team plays 16 games. The season typically runs from early September to December. NFL teams that win at least half of their regular season games (eight or more) make it to the playoffs. In the playoffs, teams compete against each other in a single-elimination tournament until only two teams are left. These two teams then compete in the Super Bowl, which is the biggest and most important game of the year.
The team that is number one right now depends on how far along in the season it is. If it is early in the season, then the team that has won the most regular season games is most likely number one. However, if it is late in the season or during the playoffs, then the team that is currently winning playoff games is probably number one.
The Team’s Record
The team’s record is the most important factor in determining who is number one. If two teams have the same record, then the next tiebreaker is their strength of schedule.
