At 7-2, the Philadelphia Eagles are just one of the teams who look like legitimate Super Bowl contenders.

Much of that can be attributed to an explosive offense and a smothering defense that shut down the Dallas Cowboys in Week 10 and have the Birds sitting atop the NFC East.

Where do Jalen Hurts and Saquon Barkley have their team in the overall NFC standings and which current wildcard teams could prove problematic to their chances at returning to the Super Bowl?

Are the Buffalo Bills the Best Team No One Is Talking About?

There were plenty of questions entering the 2024 season surrounding the Buffalo Bills, not the least of which was the perceived lack of wide receiver help for quarterback Josh Allen and whether the window for them to be a legitimate Super Bowl contender had effectively closed with their latest playoff loss to Kansas City.

The team has answered that second part with an emphatic "no," jumping out to an 8-2 record through the first 10 weeks of the season. The team dominated early, winning games by as many as 21 and 37 points respectively, then proving resilient as they bounced back from a humbling loss to Baltimore and a three-point defeat at the hands of Houston to go unbeaten in their last five.

All while Allen has once again established himself as an MVP contender and one of the best quarterbacks in the league. Through 10 games, Allen has 21 total touchdowns to four interceptions. Khalil Shakir has stepped up as Allen's favorite target while rookie Keon Coleman has lived up to his billing. The team added Amari Cooper to the mix via trade with Cleveland and, while he continues to learn the playbook, he figures to be a big part of the team's eventual playoff run.

That the Bills' defense is very middle-of-the-road, giving up 333.3 yards per game and 19 total touchdowns to this point in the season makes it even more impressive that the team sits second, behind only their arch-nemesis Chiefs, in the AFC.

While much of the hype surrounds the defending Super Bowl champs, the Baltimore Ravens, or the surging Pittsburgh Steelers, the Bills have chugged right along and have themselves in a position to challenge any one of those three teams for the right to represent the AFC in New Orleans for the Super Bowl.
