Of course Bears should be #1, they are the most balanced team in the league. Scary part is they're winning while the offense gels under new O-coordinator Tice. Offense is super balanced, Defense is loaded with veteran all-pros, who are playing Lovie's scheme to a T (leading the NFL in takeaways since he took over for Bears in 2004), and of course elite special teams.
Here's a tip on how to separate the ELITE Contenders from Pretenders:
POINT DIFFERENTIAL ( = points scored - points allowed)
Point differential don't lie, it shows how dominant a team is.
Here are the top 5 teams http://www.nfl.com/standings?category=league&season=2012-REG&sort=OVERALL_NET_PTS&order=desc&colSel=8
CHI -78
NYG - 64
ATL - 58
HOU -58
SF -58
