The New England Patriots (11-2) and Chicago Bears (9-3) lead their conferences amid an NFL season marked by unprecedented parity. Both teams, guided by second-year quarterbacks and new head coaches, have turned around from previous struggles to become top contenders.
The NHL is experiencing an extraordinary level of parity early in the 2025-26 season, with more than 20 teams within four points of each other and 27 teams at a points percentage of .500 or better. The Colorado Avalanche continue to lead the power rankings, but the rest of the league remains tightly contested. Stats show 76 games tied after regulation, 90 overtime games, and 81 percent close games, the highest rates in history.
