Let’s call a few surprises…
Down; Dolphins, Bears, Raiders
Dolphins staff gets fired, wastes a year discovering Tua “ain’t it“ and reboots in 2022… Bears because a Dalton injury and too early entry for Fields sends them below .500, Raiders… the Mayock train runs out. They’re stuck with Chucky a while longer.
Up; Chargers, Cowboys, Patriots
Chargers keep moving up with Herbert… Cowboys get Dak back and that’s worth a few more wins, and… Damn it, the Patriots strike gold (a perfect fit for them) with Mac Jones getting opportunity to start early in the season.
Up/Down; If Green Bay trades Rodgers to Denver, flip those teams.
