The eight division winners for the 2025 NFL Season may not look the same as in 2024. Let's try to predict them here. I am rocking with these eight teams as my division winners for the 2025 NFL Season. It might be easy to pick the clear-cut favorites, but so much can change from year-to-year, so it's not at all likely that we see the same eight division winners in the same spot from 2024 into 2025.
There will be a few changes in my eyes, and it would not shock me if I ended up getting this insanely wrong, as there is a mountain of parity present in today's NFL. Let's predict all eight division winners for the 2025 NFL Season.
Predicting all 8 NFL division winners for the 2025 season
AFC North - Baltimore Ravens
The Baltimore Ravens just simply have to not blow it, and they'll again win the AFC North. No other team in the division is good or complete enough to compete with Lamar Jackson and the Ravens in 2025.
AFC South - Houston Texans
The Houston Texans could really take ownership of the AFC South in 2025, as all of the other teams have notable concerns. Houston has the best QB, head coach, and the most complete roster. They could win this division for the third year in a row.
AFC East - Buffalo Bills
The Buffalo Bills are a lot like the Houston Texans in that they are in a division with three other teams that have notable question marks. Buffalo also has quite the easy schedule, so this should be no problem for Josh Allen's team in the 2025 NFL Season.
AFC West - Denver Broncos
The AFC West may be a three-horse race for the 2025 NFL Season, but the Denver Broncos do have the best roster, and Bo Nix could make quite the leap in year two. All of the Broncos, Chiefs, and Chargers could again win double-digit games, as it may take as many as 13 or 14 wins for a team to win the AFC West.
NFC North - Detroit Lions
Even with them losing both Aaron Glenn and Ben Johnson to head coaching jobs, the Detroit Lions will just barely be able to do enough to capture the NFC North yet again. The roster is just too good, and Jared Goff is too efficient not to stand atop the NFC's best division in 2025
NFC South - Atlanta Falcons
The Atlanta Falcons winning the NFC South might be my favorite division pick of the 2025 NFL Season. They've got the best roster in the division and could have the next great NFL QB in Michael Penix Jr. I would also look for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to regress by a win or two in 2025 as well.
NFC East- Washington Commanders
A Super Bowl hangover could hit the Philadelphia Eagles hard enough that they stumble a bit and end up in a Wild Card seed in the NFC, paving the way for the Washington Commanders to win the NFC East. This team won 14 total games in 2025 with a rookie QB, so their ceiling is insanely high.
NFC West - Los Angeles Rams
The NFC West could see all of the Rams, 49ers, and Cardinals competing for the division title, but I would still trust the Rams because of Matthew Stafford and Sean McVay, as they finished the 2024 NFL Season winning nine of their final 12 games after a shaky 1-4 start.
