The midterm evaluation is in for every NFL team
The NFL has reached the midway point of the 2023 season, a step closer to sorting out which teams are going to be competing in Super Bowl LVIII come February. The Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs appear primed for a Super Bowl rematch, while the Baltimore Ravens, Cincinnati Bengals, San Francisco 49ers and Dallas Cowboys are a few teams looking to crash the party.
Through nine weeks, 15 teams are above .500. The Buffalo Bills are out of the playoff picture and the New England Patriots have the worst record in the AFC (only team in the conference without three wins). The AFC has 13 teams that have a realistic shot at making the playoffs, as the No. 7 through No. 13 seeds are separated by 1.5 games.
The NFC has the Eagles on top and everyone chasing them. As for the playoff race, the Minnesota Vikings have the No. 7 seed while the Atlanta Falcons and Washington Commanders are a game back. Regardless of records, the NFL has been full of parity in the first half of the year.
