There’s just some great rivalries, Eastern NFC is the same way, rivals forever but it was probably not as intense with the St. Louis Cardinals when they were around and in that division though I know there were still some good games.

Dolphins Patriots, to me one of the better rivalries, I know Jets Patriots is suppose to be too and if the Jets are good would be again. But I think Fins Pats is usually a good watch. A real history.

Even when say this year, the Redskins are poor, still a bit intriguing to see them play the Eagles or Cowboys.

“Even when say this year, the Redskins are poor, still a bit intriguing to see them play the Eagles or Cowboys.”

Indeed. Sometimes a rivalry dies down when a team is bad (especially if they are bad for long time) but the hate seems to flow freely in the NFC East.

Bender has been wearing his “deadskins suck” shirt often. ;p

Bears/Packers is obviously huge here, in 2007 Bears went 7-9 but beat them twice including an ***kicking in Chicago with Favre complaining about the weather after the game, my uncle said it was a good year ;p. (And GB was 13-3 that year! Only 1 other loss).

I believe Packers/Vikings is the more bitter rivalry for them though. Pure hatred.

Jets/Pats gave us this http://www.sportsgeekery.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/return-of-the-Jet-I.jpg which was epic. Still have no idea what character Brady is supposed to be, just looks like himself.
