Highlights
- NFL rivalry games ignite intense passion among fans, as teams harbor deep-seated animosity and fans despise the opposing team to the point of bitterness.
- Most of the best and most savage NFL rivalries are between teams in the same division, as that familiarity breeds contempt for coaches, players, and fans alike.
- The NFC East and the AFC North are particularly rife with legendary divisional beef and rivalries, including Cowboys-Eagles and Steelers-Ravens.
