17 teams can potentially finish 10-6 or better, simultaneously.

[Disco Volante]

Already (5)
Titans (12-2)
Giants (11-3)
Steelers (11-3)
Panthers (11-3)
Colts (10-4)

With a final record of at least...

3-0
Eagles

2-0
Broncos
Cardinals

1-1
Bears
Buccaneers
Cowboys
Dolphins
Falcons
Jets
Patriots
Ravens
Vikings

With of course the stretches being the teams that need to win out.

I find the 13 potential team at 10-6 even more intriguing. They'll need a super computer to figure out all those tiebreakers.

 

[363839]

I wouldn't have thought it was mathematically possible.

 

[NJPatsfan26]

So does this mean that there are no dominate teams this year?

I mean if more than half of the teams in the NFL finish 10-6 or better, does that also mean that the remaining 15 teams have really horrible records?

 

[maseehpat]

philly would be 10-5-1, ahead of the 10-6 teams

 

[BelichickFan]

I wouldn't have thought it was mathematically possible.

Having an 0-16 team helps.

 

[Jared]

Having an 0-16 team helps.

Check the records for Seattle, Oakland, KC, Cincy...

Taking off my homer glasses and speaking as a football fan, if the NFL insists on parity, then I'd much rather have seventeen 10-6 teams than seventeen 8-8 teams.

 

[Patriot_in_NY]

So much for parity

I tend to agree

 

[JoeShmoe]

I tend to agree

Probably get killed for this but one season at 18-0 was enough for me. As a fan I enjoy close games, the odd loss and a competitive league. Else it turns into other soprts leagues such as European soccer with 2 or 3 super teams and a lack of interest

I've really enjoyed watching Cassel grow this season to be honest

 

[Disco Volante]

I'd take 18-0 and a shot at the Super Bowl every year...

 

[Pats726]

I'd take 18-0 and a shot at the Super Bowl every year...

I would as well...but comparing this year to others and teh all teams 8-8...this year is not at all bad league wise.
