After five weeks of activity in the NFL, it is clear that the team led by Bill Belichick from the bench and Tom Brady from the field is still the favorite to succeed in the Super Bowl, but here we review what other five teams could compete with them to avoid winning their seventh championship.
The six best teams in the NFL are:
1. New England. It is true that on the road they have defeated extremely bad teams like Miami and Washington, but they have looked dominant with a defense that can weigh when the offensive does not generate the expected. Undoubtedly, top candidates to remain first in the rankings the following week, as they receive New York G. at home.
2. New Orleans. Despite losing Drew Brees to an injury in Los Angeles, Teddy Bridgewater has added three victories for the team and that seems to indicate that either team could take this team away in the postseason. Only time will tell if they stay healthy and reach the second Super Bowl in the history of the franchise.
3. San Francisco. His overwhelming triumph in the game that closed Week 5, in addition to that meant that they are the second team that remains undefeated along with New England, made it clear that Jimmy Garoppolo and his defense are ready to wreak havoc and make noise in a franchise that led Time without being a topic of conversation.
4. Seattle. The bad news for San Francisco is that Seattle, a team with which they compete in the Western division of the National Conference, has once again provided flashes of greatness like when they won the Super Bowl in 2013 and will get where Russell Wilson is able to take them, So they are also a care team.
5. Kansas City. Their first defeat of the season was as surprising as it was disappointing, as they could barely score a touchdown at home against Indianapolis and were poorly positioned in a stellar game Sunday night. If Patrick Mahomes, who hurt his foot during the loss, has a sequel to the injury, it will be difficult for the team to keep up with the explosive pace it had before this Sunday.
6. Green Bay Head coach Matt LaFleur and quarterback Aaron Rodgers have had good tune in the Green Bay team, as they have started with a 4-1 mark and again look like a team with sizes to reach the game for the League championship. However, most of the contenders for the title are in the National Conference and must overcome them before facing New England, Kansas City or any team that surprises in the American in the Super Bowl.
