Falcons: AFC West Champions.

[pauliwood]

So, after completely sweeping the AFC West (Chiefs,Broncos, Chargers, Raiders) do we get to hang an AFC West champion banner in the dome?

[papachaz]

would it really mean that much????

I wonder how rare it is since the divisions realignment in 02 that a team sweeps an entire division like we did with the AFC West this year.

I would guess that it hasn't happened very often.

Hopefully we sweep the NFC East too.

Well Id say the Packers did last year. and the Patriots in their 16-0 season. Possibly the Saints and Colts in 2009 etc etc

Are you talking about an NFC team sweeping an AFC division or an AFC team sweeping an NFC division? Because that's what I was saying that I don't think has happened very often.

I hope we sweep the NFC south as well

I'm sure at one point the NFC West got swept by everyone.

Each year a division plays an entire NFC and AFC division. (This year the NFC South plays the NFC east and AFC West.) How often has a team in a division beaten an entire division like we did this year with the AFC west.
