These rankings are not a prediction of how teams will finish the 2024 season. Instead, the following list is a snapshot of where the NFL’s teams currently are. (Will that stop people from interpreting these ranking as a prediction of how teams will finish the 2024 season? Nope.)
1. Chiefs: The two-time champs will stay kings of the NFL mountain, until someone knocks them off.
2. 49ers: They keep knocking on the door. Can they finally kick it in this year?
3. Lions: The hard part is getting to a 17-point halftime lead in the NFC Championship. The easy part is holding it.
4. Ravens: The second year of the Todd Monken offense, combined with the arrival of Derrick Henry, could keep the Ravens in the thick of things.
5. Eagles: The changes to the coaching staff and the poaching of Saquon Barkley should help fix whatever went haywire late last season.
6. Packers: Can Jordan Love keep it going? If so, the Super Bowl isn’t out of the question.
7. Bills: Will a revamped receiving corps be ready to go?
8. Bengals: They’ll go as far as Joe Burrow‘s health will let them.
9. Buccaneers: For some reason, they still aren’t being taken seriously. They should be.
10. Texans: How will they perform as a team that no one will take for granted?
11. Dolphins: Whether they can win in the postseason will depend on whether they can consistently win late in the regular season.
12. Browns: Just like last year, Deshaun Watson is the biggest wild card in the league.
13. Rams: They overachieved last year, and Aaron Donald is gone. This year could entail a step backward.
14. Steelers: They blew up the depth chart at the quarterback position, dumping 2022 first-rounder Kenny Pickett along the way. That alone will make them better in 2024.
15. Chargers: The Harbaugh factor made me want to put them higher. I have a feeling they’ll get there, quickly.
16. Cowboys: All-in, my ass. (The comma does some important work in that sentence.)
