It’s the slowest time of the soccer calendar now that the 2025 NFL Draft is over and there are months to go earlier than coaching camp.
What higher time to debate which divisions are one of the best within the league?
Analyst Warren Sharp just lately shared a stat that reveals how the AFC North has been by far one of the best division within the NFL over the previous 5 years, with 128 mixed wins since 2020.

The AFC West ranks second with 119 wins in that span, whereas the AFC South is firmly in final place with 78 wins.
All 4 AFC North groups have made a number of playoff appearances, whereas each different division has at the very least one group lagging behind.
Solely twice over the previous 5 years has an AFC North group gained fewer than seven video games, as final 12 months’s Cleveland Browns (3-14) and the Cincinnati Bengals in 2020 (4-11-1) failed to achieve that milestone.
The Bengals gained 9 video games in 2023 and completed final within the division, which is a testomony to how deep it’s.
Whereas the Browns look to be headed towards one other tough season, the Pittsburgh Steelers, Baltimore Ravens and Bengals should not have any downside competing for playoff berths once more.
A stat like this reveals how broad the hole is between the AFC North and different divisions.
