5 Most Overrated Teams in the NFL Right Now (Week 16)

1) Green Bay Packers
The Green Bay Packers (9-4-1) are facing perhaps more adversity than any NFL franchise right now. It was tough to see Micah Parsons go down with a season-ending knee injury, but I've had this squad overrated for a few weeks now. Mostly, I don't believe Green Bay's offense is as good as those of its fellow NFC contenders. As of now, the Pack is ranked 10th in scoring (24.9 PPG) and 14th in total yardage (341.9 YPG). Green Bay is currently listed at +650 to win the conference, but I find it more likely they miss the postseason entirely.

5) Seattle Seahawks
To quote Tyrese Gibson in the film Four Brothers, "You keep knocking on the devil's door long enough and sooner or later, someone's going to answer." In a way, that's what it has felt like watching the Seattle Seahawks (11-3). They have experienced a few slow starts over the past month, and a couple of their wins have been a little closer than they needed to be. Seattle boasts a talented roster—there's no denying that. However, I cannot justify the Seahawks' current listing of +750 odds in the Super Bowl market (per FanDuel Sportsbook). We are now entering the nitty-gritty of 2025, and Seattle will have a chance to prove its worth. After 15 weeks, the NFC West is anything but solidified.

4) Philadelphia Eagles
The defending-champion Philadelphia Eagles (9-5) returned to the winner's circle last week, doing well to shut out their inferior competition. Be that as it may, the Birds are not putting fright into many opponents in 2025. Philadelphia's offense is ranked 18th in scoring (22.9 PPG) at this juncture. The Eagles are noticeably less explosive on the ground, churning out just 115.6 YPG rushing. Still, the sportsbooks are holding faith in Philly, yielding nine-to-one odds to win Super Bowl LIX.
3) Buffalo Bills
Ahead of Week 16, the Buffalo Bills (10-4) are considered one of the top teams in the AFC. It is tough to argue against that notion, especially in a down year for the conference. However, to put things simply, the Bills' defense worries me. In 2025, Buffalo ranked among the worst in stopping the run, allowing 143.1 YPG on the ground. Overall, the Bills are slotted 16th in defensive scoring (23.1 PPG). That did not keep NFL.com from listing Buffalo at No. 4 on its latest power rankings.
2) Baltimore Ravens
I understand the AFC North is not having its finest campaign, but I find it hard to take the Baltimore Ravens (7-7) seriously at this point. Their offense is flush with top-end talent, but it is not a top-ten unit at this time. From there, I don't think the defense can hold up down the stretch. In 2025, the Ravens have consistently operated with a poor secondary. Baltimore is surrendering 233.4 YPG through the air after 14 contests—that very well could be the Flock's undoing.
