Every year the media puts out a list of teams who have the easiest (Patriots) or toughest (Bears) path to Super Bowl 54. It probably doesn't mean much but I always find it interesting.

This year NFC North has their teams in the "top 10" for the toughest, interesting! Bears are #1, Vikings #2, Pack #8, Lions #9!

Easiest way, individually? Play for the Patriots. Team wise? Wait until Belichick and Brady retire.

Alright Bill, don't know if I want to giggle at the gist of the whole post or laugh out loud about Arizona representing the NFC.

Thanks anyway!

Well alright! I don't even want to guess how they come up with such a rating system though. And neither did the person who wrote that article I guess.

New England in the weak AFC-East with the weak NFC-East on their schedule is looking like a first round bye team once again. Left offensive tackle and tight end are the big question marks.

I’m a lifelong patriots fan but I’ll be pulling for Cleveland after all those laughing stock years.

Funny what the writer of the above story says about the Patriots:

Although it seems like a vast NFL conspiracy to keep the Patriots on top, the fact of the matter is that we really just need to blame the Jets, Bills and Dolphins for not being competitive at all over the past 20 years.

My niece is a Chargers fan, her boyfriend a Chiefs fan, and I tell them don't hate on Patriots, worry about your own team and how competitive they are. There always is the issue of other teams not doing enough themselves to be competitive. Hating and complaining about successful teams doesn't make sense to me.

I doubt Seahawks even make the playoffs. Offense is too one-dimensional and their defense will take a step back without Clark.
