It's the offseason so I believe general NFL is still cool herrre.

Which teams do you see just doing terrible this coming season?

My picks:

Titans--no more Verner, Locker isn't all that great and I can't see them making an impact whatsoever.

Falcons--For some reason I can see them

Falling apart if the passing game doesn't blow up

Jags--still climbing but it's gonna take a while

Dolphins--Another team that falls apart

Isnt Minny looking to try and start Bridgewater?

 

I would say any team with a rookie QB starting from this draft is going to have problems. I guess I should be looking at divisional matchups more but. . . yeah start a rookie at the most important spot on your team and youre going to have problems. What Cam did as a rookie was historical.

The worst teams always have issues at QB (except somehow Atlanta managed to subvert that rule last season).  

 

That said I agree with the Titans...new coach, not a lot of talent on that team.  Locker is injury prone and hasn't shown much.  They could definitely struggle.  Top 5 pick?  Yes.  Worst overall?  Nah.  

 

Houston will be in the top 5 starting Ryan Fitzpatrick, although I think their defense will be good enough to keep them from being the worst team.

 

Detroit Lions...this is a hard one to pick but I just don't see them being that good.  Stafford is a mediocre QB that crumbles in crunch time.  His stats are inflated from playing with Megatron.  They will be in the top 5.

 

Minnesota Vikings.  QB is still a huge question mark.  While they have Peterson and Patterson, this is a developing team that needs a complete defensive rebuild that will take a few seasons.  A team on the rise but not ready to come out of the basement yet.

 

My pick for the worst team will totally surprise you.  I'm picking the Bengals.  Hear me out on this...because they've had a long run of success.  They've got a decent game manager QB and a solid defense.  But losing their defensive coordinator will hurt more than people realize.  I see them having a Texans style collapse and Marvin Lewis is finally let go after an incredible run as Bengals HC.  I could be totally wrong and I probably will be, but there always seems to be a team that no one expects to be terrible that ends up picking in the top 5 (Atlanta?  Houston?).  Mine is the Bengals.

My Playoff team that falls off are Eagles.

 

In or Div the worst team will be the Bucs. Even though people think Lovie is some sort of super coach.

 

The bottom feeders in the NFC will be. Bucs,Lions,and Bears and a few more Im not sure about.

I'm guessing Jets, Bucs, Raiders, Giants, Vikings, Jags, and probably Texans again.

 

I am not so sure about the Texans.

 

They stil have great RB's, very good WR's, and a good defense.  It ALL depends on the QB.

 

I am not a fan of Fitzpatrick, but watching what O'Brien did at PSU with McGloin one year (and no other talent) and then a freshman the next year......I would not be surprised if he got the most out of Fitz this season.

 

Not sure they are anywhere near a real contender, but they play in a terrible division and I think will be much better than people are predicting.

Andre Johnson wants out. Other than him who do they have? Hopkins was solid as a rookie last year but it wouldn't say their WR corps is a strength, especially considering the AJ situation. Foster is a great RB when healthy, but they lost Tate so it's even more important for Foster to stay healthy. On D they could be good, we'll see. They should be good on D.

      Rookie season being key to uour argument. I didn't at all mislead about the talent Cam had to work with. Kalil was a great center. Olsen was a great TE. Our WRs were probably the worst in the league. Cam still won MVP, we went 15-1, and we went to the SB. Your attempt to bring up Cam to defend Bryce is desperate and clownish. Bryce has more talent to work with and has done WAY less.

      Not exactly sure that is an honest assesment of the talent he had to work with that year. Olsen had over 1100 yards that season making the PB, Stewart had close to 1100 total yards also going to the PB. He had Kalil at C who went to the PB, Trai Turner at RG who also went to the PB, and Michael Oher at LT who played well enough that the Panthers offered him a new contract the following year. I wouldn't call that a trash OL. He also played with a defense that was stacked with talent as well.   "The thing we are doing better this time around is actually surrounding our #1 overall draft pick QB with talent vs. asking him to completely carry the offense. I just hope that effort is leading us to realize that the guy isn't even good enough to get carried." Please.... Did you not read the list of names Newton had to work with his rookie season. I guess you missed it so I will post it again for you... Steve Smith (PB), Greg Olsen (PB), Brandon LaFell, Ted Ginn JR, Deangelo Williams (PB), Jonathan Stewart (PB), Jordan Grossn (PB), Ryan Kalil (PB) on the offensive side and then he had Luke Kuechly (PB), Jon Beason (PB), Thomas Davis (PB), Star Lotulelei, Kawann Short ( PB ),Charles Johnson, Greg Hardy (PB ), Mike Mitchell, Josh Norman (PB)  For comparison, here is who Young had his first year.  Chuba Hubbard, DJ Chark, Jonathan Mingo, Adam Thielen, Hayden Hurst, Ikem Ekwonu, Chandler Zavala, Bradley Bozeman, Nash Jensen and Taylor Morton. Not a single PB player on the list and most of them aren't even playing any longer. Additionally, his HC was fired during the season and the defense was as bad as the offense.  You might not like the comparison but saying Newton had to completely carry the offense isn't exactly fair to the 4 pro bowlers on offense who played with him that year.
