There’s an interesting article on ESPN.com by Len Pasquarelli about how the AFC has dominated the NFC in recent years and the trend is the same this year. Below is a link to the article, with two excerpts following. Interestingly, Dallas is the ONLY NFC team this year NOT to have been dominated by the AFC. Here is the link and the excerpts:
“QB edge could explain AFC dominance” By Len Pasquarelli, ESPN.com
Link: http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/columns/story?columnist=pasquarelli_len&id=2718554
Two Excerpts:
(1) “In regular-season play, the AFC won 40 of 64 interconference games, a .625 winning percentage that is second-best in league history. Only in 2004, when AFC teams won 44 games, a .687 winning percentage, has the series been more lopsided. Not since 1995 has the NFC taken the season series between the conferences. Since then, AFC teams are 378-300-2 against the NFC, a .557 winning percentage.”
(2) “Dallas, at 3-1, was the lone NFC team with a winning mark versus the AFC.”
Take that to the Super Bowl!!!
