We might collapse. I’ll have a better read on the caliber of our team after Monday. Should we with all the weapons we have? Hell no, but our secondary is porous, and any team can just run slants on us all day long.

At worst Detroit splits the divisional games. 2-3 in that stretch wouldn't kill them.
Bucs ready to roll while dolphins choose to eat d
chargers.
Jags feel like the collapse team to be honest. Houston is going to start rolling.
Minnesota started 1-4 and now is 6-4 and has been without Jefferson and Kirk is done for the year. I think they beat Denver this week.
The easiest non injury answers are Denver and the Cowboys ..
Yeah… get over your Lions ptsd. We’re not losing the division.
Cowboys always knock themselves out of the playoffs.
Seahawks will heat up at the perfect time, go Hawks!
Colts have the easiest schedule in the league. I'd wager they make a run and the Texans game could be a win and in game for both teams
Dont be surprised if the Bucs dont make a run and Im pretty sure Miami's going to drop a few as the weather gets cold.
Chargers, their D Line murders weak O Lines and they’ve got a pretty easy remaining SOS in those regards
Homer opinion based on emotion, but the Rams.
They went winless in November 2021 and looked like total frauds, then they made the playoffs and won the Super Bowl.
The Seahawks will probably go 1—4 in the next five at best, or possibly 0—5.

Damn, First Take in here looking for content.
Browns will make it to the super bowl somehow only to be beaten by Josh Dobbs who they cut

I know you all hate us. But don't sleep on us.
Patriots
We are going to fuck up after the bye week and win 6 of our last 7 games giving us a 8-9 record… respectable enough to look mid on paper, bad enough to miss the playoffs and painful enough to fall out of the #3 draft position
Basically a lose lose lose situation
Steelers for sure. They are the dark horse of this season
The Cardinals have been tough in almost every game and they have Kyler back. They’re going to be a spoiler.
The Eagles are 8-1, going into a murderous 4-gam stretch l, followed by Seahawks (always play us tough), the Giants (division, no matter how bad they are), the Cardinals (see above), and the Giants again.
I expect them to be no worse than 13-4, but I could totally see them limping into the playoffs.
The Dolphins again, but I guess it doesn’t count when it’s expected
Unexpected late run: Bengals
😞
I only have a few hours before the harsh reality sets in but let’s just say the Bears run the table!
And Cowboys are 6-3, so let’s pick the low hanging fruit and say they’re 8-9 by the end of the season
Saints are going all the way this year... I say that every year but I was right that one time so.. Who Dat!
Arranged by division with a team most likely to make a run.
Good teams not listed because they're not 'unexpected'
AFC South
The Texans are going to win the AFC South, and may very well win a playoff game. Stroud is great, and that defense is underrated. No stars, but well-coached.
IND sucks at QB.
TEN is bad.
AFC West
The Broncos have all the parts and a good coach has got them together.
LAC is just waiting for their dumbass coach to go full Charger. Then Belichick can be hired.
LVG doesn't have the QB to do the job anymore.
NFC North
MIN - Dobbs is a good story. They may make the playoffs because the NFC is so weak
GRB - No love.
CHI - LOL
NFC South
NOL has Carr now, but that guy just exudes "Nope" to me.
TAM may be a bit better than we think. Todd Bowles just isn't a good coach.
ATL - Arthur Smith shouldn't run a fork lift for Arthur Blank, much less his offense.
CAR is 5 players away from being good enough to evaluate the QB properly.
AFC North
The only AFC team that had underachieved based on roster was the Bengals. And to make a late run you have start out weak. But that's over.
CLE/PIT suck at QB.
AFC & NFC East (They get over-talked everywhere else. I'm condensing them.)
The Cowboys and Dolphins are all sizzle, no steak. Neither has beaten a winning team.
The Bills roster wasn't that good, and now it's a front-office smoldering dumpster fire.
Shut up about the Jets. It ain't happening, Rich Eisen.
WAS is a good story. Getting rid of Snyder is the win here.
NYGarbage
PAThetic.
NFC West
SEA - Could make a run, but are they unexpected?
ARZ - *tumbleweed*
LAR - Straight to DVD in a league built for streaming.
The colts are gonna run!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Their record straight into the ground
Arizona
Rams are gonna squeeze into the NFC race if Williams and Stafford come back 100%
I honestly think the Steelers have a good chance to sorta collapse as this season goes on. We lost our two starting linebackers for the season, Minkah is out for an undetermined period of time, and now our second safety Keanu Neal is on IR too. With the injuries to Watson and Burrow people have joked about the Steelers getting really lucky, but honestly our defense is abysmal right now outside of defensive line and Joey Porter Jr. (and even then Cam Heyward and Larry Ogunjobi, the two defensive tackles we used most last year, are playing well below their play last year), and any team with a decent O-line or QB that can get the ball out quickly should carve us up. I don't think any game left on our schedule will be easy.
Well if it's unexpected then it's gonna be tough to expect it!!!
Anyways, Jags are gonna explode :(
My pick would be Rams run and one of Browns/Ravens/Steelers collapse
please us
I don’t know, but I would be shocked if the Bears beat Detroit.
Not sure if they count any more but Texans. Check out their schedule. I think they can make noise in the AFC.
