Cleveland - Baltimore due to the history of Browns Mk1 relocating.

Good point, but Browns-Steelers was a classic long before that. Especially because they’re right next to each other.

Pats-Jets and Oakland-Denver are easy ones. The problem with the cardinals is nobody cares about them, even when they were in the East. They still haven’t shed the expansion team cloud even after 50 years.

Pitt/Browns was the old rivalry, but I can see where the Ravens have taken over. Same can be said about the Cowboys/Commanders. That was a bigtime rivalry years ago, I just don't see it anymore. Dallas has a more Giants and Philly rivalry going. I'm glad the game we lost wasn't to one of them.

I do not think the Skins have been Dallas' biggest rival for a very long time. IMO it has either been the Giants or Birds. For me it is Philly because I hate that team and fanbase more than any other.

I agree.

For me, Philly is our biggest rival, at the moment. And it’s not even really close, now that I think about it.

The ravens Steelers is just the old browns rivalry new team name but "same" team. The new browns were an expansion team and do not have the "history" that the original franchise has in its blood.

I'm an idiot! You are 100% right. I forgot about that.

Dolphins v Patriots is weird. It's a beatdown anytime in Foxboro but Miami can pull out upsets at home.

I would dare say their rivalry is with the Jets. Especially with the influx of Jets fans down here.

 

[Wolfpack]

KC Oakland
Jets Dolphins
Balt Pitt
Atlanta Carolina

 

[CowboyChris]

KC vs Denver

 

[viman96]

I know Denver vs Oakland used to be a big rivalry but no idea if it still is

 

[AtlCPA]

KC Oakland
Jets Dolphins
Balt Pitt
Atlanta Carolina

Atlanta’s biggest rival is New Orleans. I live in Atlanta, and the fans hate the Saints.

There was a Cowboys/Cardinals rivalry back when they played in St. Louis and Don Coryell was their coach and Jim Hart was their QB. There were some years when the Cards gave us a run for our money. Landry had to put together some solid game plans to be able to beat them. When Jim Hart got hot, he could really shred defenses. Of course, this rivalry has been dead for years.

Interesting. I live in Savannah and all my Falcon buddies hate Carolina. Might be a Cam (auburn) thing.

That was a decent rivalry even through the Aikman and Irvin days. That rivalry died when the Cards moved to the NFC West.

Denver- Raiders

Spot on!

 

[CPanther95]

KC/Oakland

I'd say Cowboys/Eagles. Cowboys/Commanders = Steelers/Raiders ... dormant rivalries that could quickly become the primary rivalry with the right set of circumstances.
