Who Is The #1 Team In The NFL Right Now?

The NFL season is in full swing and there are a lot of teams with a lot of potential. But who is the #1 team in the NFL right now?

The New England Patriots

Their recent success

The New England Patriots are an American football team based in the Greater Boston area. The Patriots compete in the National Football League (NFL) as a member club of the league’s American Football Conference (AFC) East division. The team plays its home games at Gillette Stadium in the town of Foxborough, Massachusetts, which is located 28 miles (45 km) southwest of downtown Boston.

The Patriots are also headquartered at Gillette Stadium. An original member of the American Football League (AFL), the Patriots joined the NFL in 1970 as part of the AFL–NFL merger. The team advanced to two Super Bowls, winning them both during the 2001 and 2003 seasons. They are tied with the Pittsburgh Steelers for having made eight appearances in total, and tied with the Denver Broncos for second most wins with five apiece. As of 2017, the Patriots have appeared in more conference championship games than any other NFL team, with eleven appearance since 2001. They own both the NFL record for most overall wins in a ten-year period (126 from 2003 to 2012) and for most wins in a twelve-year period (172 from 2001 to 2012).

The franchise has since set numerous notable records, including most wins in a single season (including playoffs), appearing in seven consecutive conference championships and eight consecutive AFC Championship games overall, and winning three Super Bowls within four seasons.

Their star players

The New England Patriots have a lot of great players, but some of their stars include:

Rob Gronkowski: Wide Receiver

Gronkowski is one of the best tight ends in the league and is a big part of the Patriots’ offense. He’s known for his great catches and his ability to score touchdowns.

Tom Brady: Quarterback

Tom Brady is one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL and has led the Patriots to many victories. He’s known for his accuracy and his ability to make big plays when it matters most.

The Green Bay Packers

The Green Bay Packers are the current front runners in the NFL. With a record of 10-3, they have clinched the NFC North division title and are in great position to make a run at the Super Bowl. Led by NFL MVP candidate Aaron Rodgers, the Packers offense is one of the best in the league. The defense has also been solid, ranking in the top 10 in both points allowed and yards allowed.

Their recent success

The Green Bay Packers are a professional American football team based in Green Bay, Wisconsin. The Packers compete in the National Football League (NFL) as a member club of the league’s National Football Conference (NFC) North division. It is the third-oldest franchise in the NFL, dating back to 1919, and is the only non-profit, community-owned major league professional sports team based in the United States. Home games have been played at Lambeau Field since 1957.

The Packers are the last of the “small town teams” which were common in the NFL during the 1920s and 1930s. Founded originally as a semi-pro team that was sponsored by the Acme Packing Company, a meatpacking firm based in Green Bay, the Packers officially joined the NFL in 1921. Financial troubles plagued the team and ownership passed hands a number of times during those early years. There were also a number of lean years when winning records were hard to come by. In 1929, for instance, Green Bay won just three games.

But all that changed when legendary coach Vince Lombardi took over in 1959. Lombardi led the Packers to five NFL championships – including victories in Super Bowls I and II – between 1961 and 1967. After Lombardi’s death from cancer in 1970, Green Bay sank back into mediocrity for much of next two decades. But under current head coach Mike McCarthy, who took over in 2006, they have returned to prominence – winning six division titles and capturing Super Bowl XLV following the 2010 season. The Packers are currently ranked #1 in most power rankings heading into Week 1 of 2019 NFL season.
