I think there's another way to look at the NFC/AFC comparison. The NFC has 9 teams below .500, the AFC has 8 teams below .500. Both have one 1-9 team and three 3-7 teams. The NFC has one more team at 4-6 than the AFC. As far as bad teams go, that's as close to identical as you get. The different starts here. The NFC has five teams at 5-5 or 6-4, the AFC only one team at 6-4. Of those five NFC teams (a combined 28-22), only 7 of the losses are against AFC teams (less than a third) and 15 against other NFC teams.
My conclusion? There is more parity in the NFC than the AFC, thus more teams in the 5-5, 6-4 range where the AFC has more in the 7-3 and up range.
But I could be misreading things or leaving things out. I do think it's interesting, though.
