The 5 most Disappointing teams of the League this year

Well I figure it is time to do this thread and I think almost everybody is going to have these teams right on your list to

The 5 most disappointing teams in the NFL from this past year

Team 1. Cincinati Bengals, there is no question about this one out of all the teams that should have made the playoffs, they have the most talent out of any team on this list on the offensive side of the Ball and after losing 4 or 5 games, that were all very winable games

Their lowest moments of the season were.

1. The collapse againist San Diego

2. The A$$ whipping that New England put on them at home

3. Losing to Tampa Bay, a team that had not even won a game prior to them beating the Bengals

4. Their inability to come back in the 4th quarter againist any teams

Team 2. The Atlanta Falcons, they have a lot of talent on offense and a decent defense and the inability of the WR to catch the Ball or the ability of Michael Vick to make big plays with his arm, as far as who was more at Fault, that remains to be seen

Team 3. The Denver Broncos, well even though their offense was not that good this year, their defense played really well early in the season and they have been plagued by lack of skill positions on offense and that loss to San Fransisco and their inability to play good late in the season, when they were in firm control of the wild card spot in the AFC and they dropped the Ball

Team 4. The Pittsburgh Steelers, this team just was an embrassment all the way around and they just did not transition that well this year with some of the new faces on their team and the constant on and off the field Drama with Ben Roethlisberger just kept faning the flame on what turned out to be one of the most disappointing seasons that any defending Super Bowl Champion has ever had

Team 5. The Carolina Panthers, even though this team was overhyped and the most overrated pre season Super Bowl pick in years, this team was a huge disappointment from a team, that everybody thought was going to go to the Super Bowl, horrible QB play out of Jake Delhomme and Injuries this season just killed them

Other teams that received consideration for this list, well the New York Giants would have certainly made this list, if they did not make the playoffs

What team do you think out of these 5 teams will improve the most and make a run next year? Well if I had to pick right now, I feel like if the Bengals can get a Good DT and DE and a good LB, they need guys in those positions on Defense, so they can have a front 7, that creates a good pash rush, because their pash rush this past season was horrible and they need to start being a better 3rd down defense and start forcing some 3 and outs

Even though their team was ranked dead last againist the Pass this year, the problem is not the Players in their secondary, they just simply do not get any help from their front 7

If Cincinati can improve those 3 positions on Defense, I firmly believe they can make a run at the Super Bowl, they have the Offense, they just need the Defense

You can't blame the TB game on Cinci. That RTP call was one of the worst calls I've seenWario_and_Fox

Well I do not want this topic to veer way left of Center, yes it was a horrible call, but you know what, with the Talent that Cincinati has on their team, they should have never been in a position, where that call should have even mattered

If you are going to blame anybody for that call, blame the guys that ended QB's career early and the Cohorts at the NFL headquarters for allowing this whole thing to become a joke

I think the Steelers and Panthers should be #1 & 2. A defending Super Bowl champ has no excuse for missing the playoffs IMO. And the Panthers had such good talent and high expectations, and failed to live up to it. The Bengals should be at #3, but you have them at 1 just cus you hate them.sfgiantsfan8291

No I do not have them there, because you say that I dislike them. When you look at all the teams, The Bengals had the most talent out of anybody on offense, it is just that their defense sucked and they kept causing Drama on and off the field and if I really hated them so much, do you think I would have said they can make it to the playoffs and get to a Super Bowl next year, if they fix their problems on defense?

Neither Carolina or Pittsburgh had the talent on offense that Cincinati had

I mean would you pick Jake Delhomme and Steve Smith and Keyshawn Johnson or Ben Roethlisberger and Hines Ward over Carson, Chad and TJ? I do not think there is anybody on here that would not take them first

I think Miami and Arizona should be in there as well.

Carolina was just horrible.Espurs117

Well, you can't make a wrong choice here. I went with the Panthers, because of the incredible hype.wallymartin

[QUOTE="wallymartin"]Well, you can't make a wrong choice here. I went with the Panthers, because of the incredible hype.geaux321

Well that pick proved to be real smart. :shock:

Greatwasabi

Well nobody expected Miami or Arizona to contend for a playoff birth, but I think we expected both teams to improve and they failed to do so and neither team was even close enough to be considered among the most disappointing teams in the league

Tons of people were saying this was Miamis year to knock the Pats off as the division champ. Plenty of people thought of them as playoff contenders as well as the Cardinals having a shot at the division.

for me it was the redskins. they were suppose to be in the playoffs or at least contend. and a 5-11 season just doesn't cut it.ocdog45

Thats cuz ur a fool, I told you all offseason they arent going anywhere....both you and axel. May he r.i.p too.

The Panthers are the team in the NFL that was the biggest underachiever because everyone, including me, thought they could get to the Super Bowl.  I was expecting a lot more from them but we will have to wait and see what happens next year.

1. Carolina
2. Cincinnati
3. Denver
4. Atlanta
5. Washington

Others: Arizona, Miami, Pittsburgh

1. Pittsburgh Steelers- I never would've predicted the former champions to fall like that. 2. Carolina Panthers- They were my pick to win the SB. The Panthers and Steelers were also my pick to have the highest records in the AFC and NFC. 3. Miami Dolphins- They were really hyped to make it in, and they didn't, and that surprised me, not to mention their 1-6 start. 4. Denver Broncos- That second-half season collapse really hurt them 5. Arizona Cardinals- I picked them as the fifth seeded team. Didn't happen, not even being second in the divison. And I don't see how Atlanta can be #2Goliath_unit

Ok why did you leave Cincinati out of your list for? I mean, if you did this poll with almost anybody, Cincinati would have made the list with 95% of all Football fans

The reason why I put Atlanta number 2, because they had a very talented team and I thought they were in better shape then most of the other teams and they just plain underachieved and choked

Yes but even though you did not expect much from them, you cannot tell me as the season went on, when they had a good pre season and then won their first 3 games and then went downhill after that loss to New England and then lost 4 out of 5 games and then they finally dig themselves out of the hole, that they were in and then they choked the last 3 weeks of the season and they should have won their last 2 games and with all the talent that they have on the offensive side of the ball and then have a horrible defense and cause all that on and off the field drama, that they were not one of the most disappointing teams in the league

Then something is seriously wrong with your knowledge of the game, because there is no way in hell that a team with that much talent on offense, despite how horrible their defense was and not making the playoffs, that they could not be considered among the top 5 most disappointing teams in the league

How can you even say Miami was more disappointing then them? I mean, they do not even have stability at their QB position and I cannot name 1 WR from their team and they play in what is the worst division in the AFC and they could not do better, I do not anybody on here besides you could honestly say that the Dolphins were more disappointing then the Bengals
