Has the NFC West surpassed the NFC North for the most difficult division in NFC?

West with the Rams, SB Champs, 49'ers maybe with Crosby and the also ran Cardinals...

Thats pretty difficult imo.

West is best 1-3, North the best 1-4.

Not sure how you can argue the West isn't the toughest. I get they have Arizona. Yes, the North has 4 playoff teams. Still not sure how you can argue the West isn't superior.

Imo, green bay without parsons first 8? games this year, and the 1st round pick it took to get him, plus the talent that they were unable to resign is gonna catch up to them on the field

The Lions have lost talent as well.

The Bears were #1 in takeaways last year , that's a stat that often fluctuates each year.

In general, I feel more confident playing any of the NFC North teams than I do playing the Rams, Seahawks or 49ers

This right here. All 3 of those west teams have a tough D and at least a good offense.
