I projected this in Jan 2020:
My bottom five NFL teams in 2020-2021: 1. Atlanta Falcons 2. New York Jets 3. Jacksonville Jaguars 4. Detroit Lions 5. New York Giants
Right now, based on everything that has happened to lead to this point:
My bottom five NFL teams in 2020-2021:
1t. Atlanta Falcons 3-13 - Why? The defense is WOAT in the league. Matt Ryan is washed and is best at this stage where he has an elite running game, OL, and defense. The Falcons are built like a super explosive offense like Kansas City but Ryan is way too washed for that type of offense at this stage. You don't get a bus driver to drive an F1 car. All of the Ryan comparisons have retired by this point of their careers: Aikman, Hasselbeck, etc. All were done with Football. Matt should be too.
1t. New York Jets 3-13 Why? The offense is the WOAT in the league. They traded there only outside chance at 4 wins in Jamal Adams. They are lucky their schedule is weak and Danold is good for two wins on his back.
3t. Cincinnati Bengals 4-12 Why? Watching them in both games, they just don't have the weapons on offense, defense wise they lack playmakers. Coaching is merely average at best. Burrow is legit but there is only so much a rookie QB can do with a bad team.
3t. Jacksonville Jaguars 4-12 Why? I don't actually think this team is bad. I think they are average but their talent is the WOAT in the NFL and I can only see them winning 4 games considering how far behind they are talent-wise.
5. New York Giants 5-11 Why? Ain't it obvious. Outside of Barkley and some playmakers, they just lack polished good players. I also don't trust Jones but I don't dislike him either. There are several teams I project to be 5-11 too so really, this is a top 4 bottom teams with the Giants being in but not really.
As far as to the draft picks, no team in mind.
1. T. Lawerence
2. J. Fields
3. T. Lance
4. G. Rousseau
5. J. Chase
