1. NFC North (Caleb Williams, Jordan Love, Kyler Murray, Jared Goff)
In the 2025 season, all four teams in the NFC North not only had a winning record, but they all had a positive point differential as well. The Chicago Bears won the division thanks to an immediate change put forth by Ben Johnson, but Caleb Williams really set the stage for what could be the best season of his career in 2026, and perhaps one where he gets some MVP love.
Williams has all the tools and traits and also became a QB who rose to the challenge in late-game situations. He was more efficient across the board last year as well, and while the completion percentage dipped, there's reason to believe that year two with Johnson could yield more efficient pass completion.
Jordan Love has missed four regular season games over the last two seasons, but he's got all the traits as well. He has also been quite efficient each year of his starting career, as the Green Bay Packers have been to the playoffs each year he's been under center. Love and the Packers haven't quite broken out fully yet, but Love is seen by many as a top-10 QB, and that isn't the most controversial thing someone has said about a QB in this league.
Jared Goff might be the most underrated QB in the NFL - he's thrown for well over 4,000 yards in each of the last four seasons and also has no fewer than 29 touchdown passes each year during that time, helping the Detroit Lions to a winning record since 2022 as well.
And while Kyler Murray is not a superstar at the position, he's a legitimate dual-threat option and could thrive with the Minnesota Vikings, the best personnel situation he's been in during his career. The NFC North is truly loaded at this position.
