Surprises:
Rams: Who saw this coming? I thought under mcVay, the Rams would gradually improve and hopefully go 8-8 this year. Nope. They are 11-4 and have the best offense in the league. Jared goff is a new man, Todd Gurley is an MVP candidate, and the defense and special teams are both overachieving. They are a well coached team, and the players love McVay. They have fun. And it’s refreshing.
Case Keemun: Case Keenan leading the Vikings to a first round bye? This season is weird guys. He has been great. Him and Adam Theilin have developed such great chemistry, and with that defense, they have a legit shot at the super bowl. Which is crazy considering the injuries, and it all starts with Keemun.
Jets: everyone had them penciled in at 0-1. While they are not great, 5-10 I think, they blew the expectations of their season out of the water. Credit has to be given to Todd Bowles for getting his players to play hard and the players for overachieving.
Carson wentz: Wow. He is unreal. Everyone knew he would be good but no one knew he would be this good:
Disappointments:
Giants: what a horrible season. Not only are they 2-13, but they have had 3 suspensions, head coach and GM fired, eli benched and then back to started, players calling out other players, and overall just a mess. Hardest year as a Giants fan of my life and their is only one word that can describe their season. Dysfunctional.
Raiders: Again, what happened? They were so good last year, the young and upcoming team. They added lynch. They looked like real contenders to the patriots and Steelers. Instead, penalties continued to bite them, the defense was soft, the receivers hands( COOPER WTF) and Derek Carr taking a major step back. Del Rio gotta go.
Buccaneers: the issues with the bucs and raiders are intertwined. Struggling young QB, struggling star receiver, soft defense, poorly coached. Dirk Koetter is as good as gone.
Falcons offense: Matt ryan and the offense look like a shell of themselves.
Injuries: just take a look at this list. This year has been rough on stars guys, no wonder the games are boring there is no star power!

Forgetting guys like Richard Sherman and Kam Chancellor. The amount of injuries are insane and it’s a major problem. It has been a shadow over his whole NFL season
