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.

      Brooks RB, Placed on PUP, Out for 2025

      By pantherclaw · Posted

      Every team does it's homework. More so than any fan.  Brooks, had he not been injured, would have been a first round talent.  I have zero problems with the team (Dan Morgan and company) drafting Brooks in the 2nd.  He is a fantastic talent.  As far as risk, this is the NFL.  Any and every player is exposed to the same brutality that the NFL is.  Despite Brooks latest setback, it doesn't cost the team much.  Our running back room is stacked.  Could they have drafted someone else? Sure. No promise that someone else would have made an impact last year.  Or this year.   When it's your job to do what Dan does, I pray you get it all right. Lord knows that there isn't a single GM that gets it all right.

      Brooks RB, Placed on PUP, Out for 2025

      If we were a solid winning organization most of us would have no problems with this selection. We would have had a capable starter in place to allow him to be eased into the rotation. If were told prior to the draft that he had been completely cleared health wise, we "probably" wouldn't have a ton of reservations about this selection. If we had picked this young man on Day 3 of the draft most of us would have no problems with this selection because we wouldn't have had to use draft capital to move up and get him. Unfortunately, none of the above were true 1)  We were a terrible team in 2023 and needed an immediate impact player. 2)  He was hurt near the the end of the 2023 NCAA season. We traded up to get him even though we knew he wasn't medically cleared to play in 2024. 3) When training camp started we were hearing stories that the knee wasn't ready. That alone should have raised some red flags. I personally would have red-shirted him in 2024 in order to have him ready for 2025. We had Chubba as our lead back and other guys to fill the #2 and #3 spots on the depth chart. There was no need to rush Brooks unto the field in 2024. Here's our draft history in the 2nd round between 2021 and 2024 2021 TMJ 2022 No draft choice. We picked Matt Corall in round 3 (#94) as our only Day 2 pick. 2023 Jonathan Mingo 2024 Jonathon Brooks. We have taken 4 skill players on Day 2 of the draft for the past 4 years who have contributed absolutely nothing to the offensive side of the football. 3 are no longer on the team. Two of them are no longer in the NFL. One  could possibly never start a game due to a knee injury. This type of poor drafting is why this team has been so bad for the entire decade.
