Since 1998, an average of 6.14 playoff teams did not return the following year.

Of course I hope the Panthers are one of the ones that make it in next year that didn't make it this year.

Six teams seems like an awful lot.

Like any other guessing game I don't have a lot of rhyme or reason but my guesses to NOT repeat are:

Ravens: No RayRay, Reed is getting older, Suggs is damaged goods

Vikings: AP cannot repeat this success and Ponder throws like a girl

Redskins: I am very worried that RG3 has a torn CL and getting 1600 out of Morris seems flukey

Falcons: I hate the Falcons, what can I say?

49ers: Something about the QB controversy has me spooked

Bengals: Dalton sux

These Tems didn't make it this year. I don't see them getting in next year.

At 7-9 this year. Team in Salary Cap Hell, having to get rid of veterans and replace with rookie draft pics. Sean Payton coming back for the Saints. I'd say Carolina Panthers will miss the Playoffs again.

I don't see KC Chiefs getting that good all of a sudden.

Same for the Raiders.

Same for the Jags. However they have the biggest cushion in the cap if they want to spend money in FA.

Of the teams that made it tihs year:

I'd say the Bengals will miss the playoffs next year. Ravens may not be as good as they have been in years past. I think the Steelers will be better. Bengals will miss it next year.

49ers may have a fight on their hands it the Seahawks are as good as they were this year! But they both will likely make it, one as a wildard again.

Baltimore

Washington

Minnesota

Cincinnati

San Francisco

I think the rest are in, so I give you 5 :)

Colts are just going to improve IMO

Seattle looks like a solid young radiply improving team (although well see in Marshawn can put up te same numbers next year)

Atlanta's here to stay unfortunately

Along with New England, Houston, Denver and Green Bay

In order of least likely to return to most likely:

Colts

Vikings

Redskins (especially if the injury to RG3 turns out worse than expected and/or he has recurring problems)

Bengals

Baltimore

Green Bay (gut feeling, the Bears FINALLY get it done next year and win the division)

Bonus points: the divisions with 2 teams will be the NFCS, NFCW, AFCE, and AFCW

Just feel Seattle is getting stronger and who knows how good Kapernick will fare over a full season and Wilson is legit... I see them taking over the West Division next year and others teams slipping past SF (like ... Ahem ... The CAROLINA PANTHERS!)

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By Tepper's Chest Hair · Posted

      Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.

      Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying.

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
