Best Current NFL Rivalry?

[EGTuna]

In the late 70s and early 80s, it was Skins/Dallas (and to a lesser extent Steelers/Oilers).

In the late 80s it could be argued it was Giants/Niners and/or Giants/Skins.

In the early-mid 90s, it was Dallas/Niners.

In the late 90s, it was Packers/Niners (and Bucs/Packers to a lesser extent).

Throughout most of the 2000s it was Pats/Colts (and to a lesser extent Ravens/Steelers).

Now? Ravens/Steelers still? Jets/Pats? Will one emerge this year like Pats/Broncos or Giants/Packers? Maybe Dallas/Giants?

Steelers/Ravens

for now

Steelers-Ravens is by far the best now.

But all the NFC East combinations are great, as are Bears/Packers, Broncos/Raiders, Patriots/Jets, etc.

I like the more cross-conference and division rivalries, that often include the Cowboys like the Steelers, Packers, and 49ers. Great history there, like the Giants/49ers, Steelers/Raiders, Colts/Pats, etc.

I like Harbaugh/Schwartz, personally.

Now...

Ravens/Steelers @ Best in NFL

Cowboys/Giants @ Best in NFCE (just to add to the Game-1 buildup )

 

[Cowboys&LakersFan]

Ravens/Steelers.

 

[Sean50Lee]

Without a doubt its Ravens/Steelers.

Lawrence Taylor once said:
"The truest rivalry in the NFL is Giants/Eagles. We hate each other, and when we play, people walk away bloody."

Meanwhile here in 2012 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Ravens & Steelers probably.

ravens/steelers, jets/patriots

no way in my mind is giants/cowboys a good rivalry because the last five years it has been one sided with giants winning seven of the last ten times and convincing wins at that.

 

[FiveRings]

Ravens and Steelers is great just because of the defenses, but take it back a few years and those Colts Pats match ups trumped absolutely everything.

I still love watching a little Packers Bears action too

 

[Chopzley]

49ers/Saints.

This will definitely be a heated rivalry for the foreseeable future. Saints/Falcons has always been one of the more underrated NFL rivalries, especially the last 5 years or so. As of now, I say Pittsburgh/Baltimore is at the top though.

 

[Beats_By_Zeke]

right now its Ravens and Steelers. But the Giants and cowboys arnt far behind. never know whos going to win those games.

:signmast:

Colts/Pats were great - will miss that.

 

[Cowboy_Shawn]

Steelers/Ravens

for now

Yep. Outside of Cowboy games the Steeler/Raven games are the games I look forward to the most.

Second, IMO, would be Patriots/Steelers.

I enjoyed those games but I never planned my day around those Pats/Colts game.
