The Top Teams
The New England Patriots are currently winning the NFL game right now. They are ahead of the Indianapolis Colts with a score of 31-17. The Patriots are looking like they will win this game and take the lead in the AFC East.
New England Patriots
The New England Patriots are a professional American football team based in the Greater Boston region. The Patriots compete in the National Football League as a member club of the league’s American Football Conference East division. The team plays its home games at Gillette Stadium in the town of Foxborough, Massachusetts, which is located 28 miles 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 changed its name from the original Boston Patriots after relocating to Foxborough in 1971. The Patriots played their home games at Foxboro Stadium from 1971 to 2001, then moved to Gillette Stadium at the start of 2002 season. They have appeared in ten Super Bowls winning seven of them, most recently Super Bowl LIII in February 2019.
Seattle Seahawks
As of right now, the Seattle Seahawks are on top of the NFL with a 10-2 record. They have some tough competition ahead, but they have shown they are a strong team this season.
Their most recent win was against the Philadelphia Eagles. This was a big win because it solidified their position at the top of the NFC West and it put them in a good position for a first-round bye in the playoffs.
The Seahawks have a few key players that have been instrumental in their success this season.
One is quarterback Russell Wilson. He has been playing at an MVP level and is currently second in the NFL in passing touchdowns with 29. He has also been very efficient, as he has a passer rating of 110.9, which is the best in the NFL.
Another key player for the Seahawks is linebacker Bobby Wagner. He is one of the best linebackers in the NFL and is currently second in the league in tackles with 133. He also has four sacks, two interceptions, and two forced fumbles.
The Seahawks also have a great defense as a whole. They are currently ranked second in the NFL in points allowed per game at 18.3. They are also very good against the run, as they are allowing just 91.8 rushing yards per game, which is third best in the NFL.
If the Seahawks can keep up this level of play, they should be able to make a deep run into the playoffs and maybe even win another Super Bowl
Green Bay Packers
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 in the United States. Home games have been played at Lambeau Field since 1957.
The Packers are also the last of the original NFL teams to be fully privately owned; other franchises have since transferred ownership to group founders or public entities such as holding companies. Green Bay Packers, Inc., is headquartered in Lambeau Field. With a Super Bowl title in 2010, they join New Orleans and Indianapolis as the only community-owned teams with a Lombardi Trophy.
Dallas Cowboys
The Dallas Cowboys are a professional American football team based in the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex. The Cowboys compete in the National Football League (NFL) as a member club of the league’s National Football Conference (NFC) East division. The team is headquartered in Frisco, Texas, and plays its home games at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, which opened for the 2009 season.
