As of right now, the New England Patriots have the best record in the NFL.
The NFL’s best teams right now
The NFL’s best teams right now are the Kansas City Chiefs, the New Orleans Saints, the New England Patriots, and the Los Angeles Rams. These teams have a combined record of 32-8, and they are all looking like Super Bowl contenders. Let’s take a closer look at each team.
The New England Patriots
The New England Patriots have the best record in the NFL right now. They are 10-1 and their only loss came against the Buffalo Bills in Week 4. The Patriots have since gone on a seven-game winning streak and they look like they are the team to beat in the AFC.
In their most recent game, the Patriots beat the Dallas Cowboys 13-9 in a thriller. The game was decided in the final seconds as quarterback Tom Brady threw a touchdown pass to wide receiver Julian Edelman.
The Patriots have one of the most balanced teams in the NFL. They have a great offense that is led by Brady, who is arguably the greatest quarterback of all time. They also have a very good defense that is led by linebacker Dont’a Hightower.
The Patriots are currently first in the AFC East and they are on track to win their division for the ninth straight year. They are also one of the favorites to win the Super Bowl this year.
The Pittsburgh Steelers
The Pittsburgh Steelers are currently the best team in the NFL with a record of 12-2. They have clinched the AFC North and have a chance to earn a first-round bye in the playoffs. The Steelers have one of the best offenses in the NFL, led by quarterback Ben Roethlisberger. They also have a strong defense, which has been one of the best in the league this season.
The Los Angeles Rams
The Los Angeles Rams are on top of the NFL right now with a Brilliant 11-1 record. The Rams have been untouchable this season only losing to the New Orleans Saints in a nail bitter. The Rams offense is number 1 in the NFL averaging almost 34 points per game, and they are not too shabby on defense either only giving up an average of 23 points per game which is 5th in the NFL.
The NFL’s worst teams right now
The NFL’s worst teams right now are the Cleveland Browns, New York Jets, and San Francisco 49ers. These teams have a combined record of 3-13. The Browns have the worst record at 1-11, while the Jets and 49ers are tied for the second-worst record at 2-10.
The Cleveland Browns
It’s been a long time since the Browns were good. They’ve only made the playoffs once since returning to the NFL in 1999 and haven’t had a winning season since 2007. They’ve been so bad that they’ve become the butt of jokes, and their fans have become accustomed to losing.
This year, however, things seem to be different. The Browns have a new head coach in Hue Jackson, and they’ve made some big changes to their roster. They’ve also got a lot of young talent, and they seem to be heading in the right direction.
The Browns still have a long way to go before they can compete with the likes of the Patriots and Seahawks, but they’re no longer the laughingstock of the NFL.
The New York Jets
The New York Jets are currently tied with the Miami Dolphins for the worst record in the NFL. They are both 2-7 on the season. The Jets have been plagued by injuries all season, including losing starting quarterback Sam Darnold to mono early in the season. They have struggled to find any consistent offensive production and their defense has been one of the worst in the league. Head coach Adam Gase is already on the hot seat and it will only get worse if they don’t turn things around soon.
The San Francisco 49ers
The San Francisco 49ers are currently the NFL’s worst team. They have a record of 2-10, and their last win came against the lowly New York Giants in Week 10. Since then, they have lost five straight games, including a humiliating 34-0 defeat at the hands of the Los Angeles Rams in Week 13.
The 49ers’ struggles are due in large part to their offensive struggles. They rank dead last in the NFL in points scored (14.8 per game) and yards gained (262.4 per game). Their passing game has been particularly bad, as they rank last in the NFL in passing yards (185.8 per game) and have thrown just seven touchdown passes all season.
The 49ers’ defense has also been a major issue this season. They rank 29th in the NFL in points allowed (28.3 per game) and 26th in yards allowed (372.4 per game). They have been especially bad against the pass, as they rank 31st in the NFL in passing yards allowed (270.9 per game).
If the 49ers want to turn things around, they need to improve on both sides of the ball. However, with their current roster, that could be a tall order.
