“NFL–TROUBLED TEAMS”
=======
A fascinating start to the season with what the New England Patriots and Indianapolis Colts have done so far.
Is this the LA Rams year? Does someone like Detroit topple the trophy from the Eagles?
Is Chicago the real deal? Can the Chargers get out from beneath the black cloud of injuries?
An interesting finish is coming to see if the Chiefs or 49ers or Ravens can rally themselves and be a player in January?
But if you look at the standings at this hour, there is alot of bad football being played out there. How do they fix their problems?
TITANS…Woefully short on talent around last year’s number 1-pick Cam Ward-who competes like hell but does not have alot around him.
JETS..Ever think you’d see a team, this late in the season, have just 8-TD passes from its quarterbacks? You can have all these draft picks stockpiled, but if next year’s draft has few quality QBs-how long will it take to fix things in New York.
RAIDERS..Never thought it would be this bad in Pete Carroll’s first year, but they are so wafer thin in talent, on the offensive line, at wide out, in the back seven on defense, and maybe even with Geno Smith at quarterback. Losing has become commonplace there.
BROWNS…Have never survived the entire Deshaun Watson crisis at quarterback. If Shedeur Sanders starts this weekend, he will be the 42nd different starting QB they have had since 1999. Getting some OL would help too.
BENGALS…Just awful, to have the QB-WR package they have and be so blighted at virtually every other position on the roster. Am I the only one who blames Mike Brown for this mess?
GIANTS…This shortcoming may be more about poor leadership than the makeup of the roster. They have a QB-RB-WR-DE in place. They need a coach and a proven GM to add to the roster.
SAINTS…Only time tells if Tyler Shough can be the solution at QB, but there are alot of holes around the roster, and some age too.
ARIZONA..They gave Kyler Murray alot of money and now the rumblings are they made a mistake, might want to trade him, and rebuild this franchise. Hard to tell if this is a player problem or an organizational problem?
WASHINGTON…Keeping the QB-Jayden Daniels on the field is huge, protecting him is big too. A really bad mid season skid leads to questions about the roster’s dedication. Maybe it is injuries more than anything else. But they are losing.
MIAMI..They have Tua at quarterback but they have injuries, a poor defense, and now have a vacancy in the GM chair. Looks like they need an overhaul top to bottom in South Florida.
That’s 10-really bad teams, nearly a third of the whole league. Lots of work to be done.
