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.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By cranky · Posted

      I can't help but think that you are equating physical attributes alone with wins. I don't subscribe to that thought. No one will argue that Young has a strong arm, but he makes up for it in other ways. The real limitation for him is he needs good route runners with great hands. That's why Young was so good at the end of the 24 season. Thielen and Coker were perfect receivers for him and he had his best games with them. Not having them to start the 25 season hurt. Look at the first 10 games in 25 with a rookie receiver and no Coker and then look at the final 7 games with a more experienced rookie and Coker back and there is a telling difference in Young's performance. Prior to week 10, Young had 1 game with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and 6 games with a rating below 90. In the last 7 games with Coker back, Young had 3 games with a QB rating above 100, 2 games with a rating above 90 and only 2 games with a rating below 90. The tools a QB has to work with matter more than their arm strength.  To go back to Darnold and Stafford, yes they both have great arm strength but neither had much success with that alone. As I already pointed out, Stafford, even with a canon for an arm, only had 4 winning seasons in his first 12 years. It was only when he went to the right environment that he had true success.

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      I don't love this role for him if I'm being totally honest The pregame show is much more flash than substance and doesn't seem like the right fit for what Luke would bring to the table, and that's his vision of the game. I'd like to see him do something where it more involves him breaking down film and explaining what he's seeing out there, as he sees the game in a way very few ever have.
