Official 2016 NFL Discussion Thread

Peyton will be retired. Brady soon will be. Cousins is on track to take his team deep in the playoffs. Arizona needs a new QB. KC can possibly take the division. RG3 still wants to play, even though he's broken as Bob Sanders & Greg Odom combined. And the NFL will be littered with Bama alumni (not necessarily grads) once again, thanks to the BCS (Bowl Championship Series) being replaced with the ACS (Alabama Championship Series).

Discuss!

My prediction for 2016: The New York Giants will have the worst record in the NFL.
Jacksonville and Tennessee, the usual recipients of this honor, are both young and talented, they won't be the worst this year. The Giants, on the other hand, are lacking in talent at almost every position, they fired their head coach, who was the only thing keeping them in line, but instead of bringing in a proven replacement, they promote the O-coordinator, who has no experience and there's no reason to believe he can be successful. 3-13 record.

Really? Not SF? That should be their eternal curse for firing Harbaugh.

Harbaugh wasn't fired. He left on his own. Was he probably going to get fired? Sure, but he would have deserved it for losing control on the team.

There's still some talent in SF, they'll stumble to a couple more wins than the Giants, but you can give them 4 losses right off the bat to Seattle and Arizona.

Team ownership/management didn't agree with him. He didn't lose control of the team. 2015 had more losses than the previous 3 years combined. Kaepernick could have been a decent-enough QB to get them by...but without Harbaugh, the team is going to suck for quite a while to come.

There is a dearth of quality coaching in the NFL, imho. How do I know? I'm a KC fan--nothing else has to be said.
