The AFC has a QB problem. Thanks to Mahomes, Allen, Jackson, etc., GMs are ready to move if the guy isn't brilliant immediately which is stunting QB development. The NFC is all about coaching. The top 7 all have brilliant coaching in some aspects and you need to hit on your hires to compete across this conference line.
@@charleslathrop8309Brian Flores WON an arbitration case where the judge and defendant were on the same side. He's a great coach and a great mind. He will be a head coach again, and I think he will be like Mike Tomlin.
Biggest thing is that QB development is a team game. No longer can you rely on an amazing 21 year old college QB to solely turn around an entire franchise.
That’s always been the case, turning around a franchise is a team effort. No amount of great QB play will turn things around if the executives and coaches aren’t also good and competent enough to build a good team and make sure that team has good coaching to maximise their potential.
Didn't lamar do that? That was 6 years ago. 2017 Ravens were 8-8 and 2018 Ravens started 4-5 then finished 6-1 once Lamar started instead flacco. 2019 Ravens were 14-2. Lamar was 20. That is the thing about football. You do not know what could happen.
What do you mean "no longer"? That's almost never happened. Unless you're talking about Tom Brady it's highly unlikely that a QB can turn around a Franchise by himself
@@SuperMurray2009Brady joined an already good team, similar to Lamar. They didn’t “turn around” anything, they just helped make a talented team reach its full potential
Last season showed us how important backup QBs were and this season is showing us how important RBs are. There are gonna be a lot of teams drafting RB in this upcoming draft.
greatest lesson- don't believe the hype, don't believe what looks good on paper, don't hire older players past their prime and expect them to be elite. thanks NY JETS
But Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, Brett Favre, Michael Vick, Randy Moss, Von Miller, Demarcus Ware. Basically any elite older player not named Aaron Rodgers.
I'd have been willing to believe the Bears would only win 4 games if you told me that before the season. I would not have expected the four wins to come in the first six games in that scenario.
AFC North: Steelers: excellent defense and great coaching. Nothing new here 😅 Ravens: Lamar continues to mature as a passer and Henry still had plenty of gas in the tank. The defense has underperformed with the loss of Patrick Queen but they will be a tough out in the playoffs. Bengals: Burrow is probably the best passer in the league. Years of poor drafting and personnel decision of the defensive side of the ball mixed with a high injury toll produced the worst defense in the league. Paying Chase and fixing that defense will prove a challenging feat in one offseason. Browns: Watson is cooked and the front office's refusal to move on and admit their mistake will ruin this team in the short term.
A reason in New England was so Successful for so long as they understood that players 35-53 may be the most important ones on your roster….. everything gets hit with injuries and depth is more important than ever, and arguably more important than the starting 22
Running backs matter when you have EVERYTHING ELSE in place. Saquon Barkley was not dominating like this on the giants. Derrick Henry was, but that team never went anywhere because the team was okay at best. Gibbs is nice with the lions but they also put a whole team in place first, with a great line. I would love to see RBs get more love going forward. I miss seeing dominant run games. Old school football 🏈
NFC East: Eagles: Best trenches in football and putting a physical runner like Saquon behind it is a match made in heaven. I have a hard time not seeing them as the NFC's SB representative now that Detroit's defense has burst into flames. Commanders: They may have their franchise QB. They are still missing some pieces at various areas on the roster but there is little reason to believe the future isn't bright. Cowboys: The Cowboys may have stars on the roster, but this is a bad roster overall. Both sides of the line need a serious overhaul and the offense needs more than one weapon. Giants: Dexter Lawrence is elite. Him and Malik Nabers are honestly the only positives about this derelict franchise at the moment.
Im glad you mentioned how much coaching matters. Its something Ive said for the last few years about the Cowboys. I think the coaching is the reason the talented squads have failed in the playoffs. Unfortunately, I dont believe Jerry Jones will hire a good coach and let them do work.
@ that too, sticks with Dak and has a horrid season with a good roster, meanwhile look at Pitt, doing it with Russell Wilson who I know 99% of folks thought was surely washed
Coaching makes a huge difference. Thinking of KOC and how much he's changed the culture and the trust the team has in him. Also, despite his age, Aaron Jones was a huge upgrade for the Vikings and a great piece for them to balance out Jet and JA's passing game. I think the Bears got rid of the cancer that was their head coach and don't think Caleb is "ruined". He's played hard and it seems his team still believe and trust him.
Another thing is injuries and how they can impact a team… from short term even to long term… for example, the Lions are one of the best teams right now in the NFL, however they have been hit with so many injuries and it could potentially impact them on their run to the Super Bowl
I still dont understand why people thought the Bears would be better than the Vikings this year. Even without Darnold playing out of his mind, did people really think an unproven Bears team would outmatch KOC? What?!
@@Dragon-BelieverYou can only really come to that conclusion by completely glossing over the fact that, no matter how good the receivers are, Darnold still has to be the one to get the ball to them.
@jonathanharsh7434 he's not really getting it to them. He's just putting it in the general area and the defender is in no position to make a play because they are beat. I don't think what he's doing would work on another team.
AFC South: Texans: Legitimate chance to be a contender over the next few years, but they are wasting an elite defense with an atrocious OL. If they address that this offseason, look out. Colts: Owner's brain is fried from all the cocaine he's used over his life and the GM refuses to address the team's flaws. I think they run it back with Richardson again but they need change, preferably at GM. Jags: Owner is absentee all year and either doesn't care about results or is incapable of hiring the right people. Not sure which is worse tbh. Regardless, Jags are quietly one of the bigger disasters of this season and need an exorcism of that front office that I'm not sure is coming. Titans: They missed badly on Will Levis but there are bright spots. I fear they will throw the bag at Darnold this offseason instead of following through on the rebuild Carthon has started.
Titans never should’ve fired vrabel. I think that’s what screwed over Will Levis development his team is better than last year but I don’t think Calhoun is a good coach. Titans are a 7-10 win team with vrabel and Levis looks significantly better
NFC West: Rams: Stafford and McVay are still damn good at their jobs and Puka Nacua is an absolute game wrecker. If injuries didn't shank them out of the gate this year, they'd be running away with this division. Seahawks: The OL is abominable. Even if they limp into the postseason, you simply cannot win in January with such a poor level of play from the guys up front. Cardinals: An anomaly. They have solid pieces rounding out the roster but just can't seem to consistently put it together. MHJ hasn't been the stud he was promised to be and I can't help but feel that held the offense back this year. 49ers: Purdy/Shanahan cannot compensate for key players missing and the offense doesn't function without Trent Williams. A year from Hell for the Niners between injuries and drama. Expect them to come out swinging next year.
AFC West: Chiefs: Call it dumb luck but they understand the assignment when it comes to situational football. The OL worries me but not enough to bet against Mahomes in the playoffs. Chargers: Rome wasn't built in a day. They're on the right track but are still missing pieces, primarily on offense, before they take that next step. I expect a big jump from them next season. Broncos: Sean Payton was right to ditch Wilson and the defense continues to be borderline elite. I'm concerned they overachieved this year and are setting up to disappoint next year unless they enter the offseason with urgency. Raiders: Antonio Pierce is not an NFL HC and Telesco will lead them to ruin sooner than later. If they nail their coaching search though, a lot of their problems go away. Brock Bowers is already a great building block for the next regime.
I think the Broncos are using their own blueprint from the championship season in 2015. If the team uses Nix's rookie contract as the cap gift to add the right piece on that side of the ball, they could have an '00 Ravens/'13 Seahawks situation next year and win the Super Bowl.
I really hope Richardson starts to click on the Colts next year. As someone who lives in Indiana and gets Colts games on my local tv channels, I want to see them bring great pro football back to Indiana again
Colts fan here, AR is oozing with talent and he’s looked sharp for his experience level and our piss poor team, our offense is either inconsistent or trash most weeks because o line loves penalties, WRs/TEs are never open, and JT is extremely inconsistent. If we cleaned house offensively, and got an OC that could call plays AR will be like Lamar Jackson with Andrew Lucks strength and arm in 2 years. People give Gus Bradley a hard time but he has made our defense formidable with practice squad guys and 3rd stringers especially in the secondary. Steichen loves to call Hail Marys every play and the whole offense basically relies on a young inexperienced QB to bail them out every game. Ballard is good at getting role players but refuses to get the playmakers in free agency. Steichen is a good HC bad OC. We need a good offensive coordinator that calls the plays and we need to go out and get a star TE and get Gus Bradly’s secondary some pieces. The Colts are in purgatory because every game is basically Kenny Moore, Latu, Buckner, AR, Gus Bradly and Steichen vs the other team
AR has all the talent in the world he's just still very raw because he injured his shoulder last year and this season is basically still his rookie year people just need to be patient with him
NFC North: Lions: When healthy, this is the best team in football. They weren't just beating teams, they were destroying their opponents. Sadly, I think they are consigned to an early exit on account of their defense catching fire, but if anyone can overcome something like that it's MCDC. Vikings: Between getting All Pro caliber play of out Sam 'Seeing Ghosts' Darnold and the defense actively making every OC look like a nimrod when playing them, safe to say this is the best coaching staff in the league. Packers: They are a Top 5 NFC team that made the ill-advised mistake of being in a stacked division. Joe Barry's dismissal has turned the defense into a serious threat. Bears: This term is thrown around in excess but the McCaskeys are genuinely football terrorists. Bears will seldom be relevant as long as they own the team and considering the measures taken to become majority owners in the first place....buckle up Chicago.
Hot Take: DC isn't going to overcome the defense injuries, because he's part of the reason why they're all broken. It's fun to see a team win 54-whatever, but if it comes at the cost of the well-being of your players, it's not worth it. A team that wins by narrow margins but can stay healthy will always go further than a blowout machine that physically falls apart when it matters most.
To me, the biggest take is that ownership means everything to a team’s success. Washington completely turned their franchise around in a very short amount of time when they got a good owner while teams like the Jets and Bears who made big splashes at the QB position had all-time embarrassing seasons, and teams like the Giants and Browns look like they don’t have a clue as to what they are doing.
New England fell off a cliff when the Kraft family got high on their own supply. Much like Reinsdorf and Krause in Chicago, they confused lucking into a generational talent and the right coach for being brilliant franchise builders.
I learned from the Patriots that, just because you learned from the greatest defensive coach of all time doesn't mean you'll be a great defensive coach..
Yeah you’re hyping Richardson too much. Saying he has made plays only 2 others can make in bro history is just awful. I’ve stood by this since before the draft, mahomes has ruined qb evaluation. If a guy can launch the football people take chances. He’s never been good not even in college
Facts. It's like the "make 3s or off the team" mentality the NBA has. The way sports drool over offensive potential with no regards to other aspects of the game is crazy.
I learned how evidently seriously some teams bought into the idea that "eh, we don't need an RB; just have our quarterback throw his check-downs, same thing." No it's not, obviously, and it's clear that trends beat good football commonsense more often than we'd care to admit. "Gee, how can we beat this cover-two defense?" Well, you could try getting a good run game with a running back and an oline ...?
I think teams really need to stop falling in love with an offensive coordinator doing well with a team and then jumping straight to a HC job right after that success. Same with defensive coordinators. HC is way more of a task and too many good OCs/DCs become bad Head coaches (Todd Bowles, Arthur Smith just to name a few)
I can’t wait for the season to end. You were referencing me, thank you. Sanders or bust for the Raiders! Lowkey though, rumors are that if we can’t get Sanders, we’ll go BPA and grab Dillon Gabriel in the 3rd and work on him as a project QB.
@ he might move up draft boards but he’s not gonna go in the first. He won’t be an immediate pay off and the super QB needy teams will have their guys early. Gabriel could go in the 2nd but the beginning of the 3rd seems most realistic right now.
Take Hunter #1 and build the lines in free agency. There’s no good QB prospects. Sanders, Ward, Gabriel, they’re all massively overhyped. Take the best player of a generation and worry about a QB in the next cycle.
NFC South: Bucs: Their offense, when healthy, can go blow for blow with anyone, which is great because their defense is atrocious. Not sure what happened to it but secondary has to be a chief concern entering 2025. Falcons: N/A. We're about to see a completely different Falcons team over the next three games. Everything we may have learned prior might no longer hold true. Kirk Cousin: Father time is undefeated for a reason and the Achilles tear remains absolute poison. Saints: You can dodge the cap hit all you want but don't expect to miraculously improve while doing so. It's time NOLA, rip the band-aid off. Panthers: A controversial take, but there isn't anything Bryce Young is doing that you cannot also get out of a backup. Just because he is playing well enough to where you can actually evaluate the rest of the roster doesn't justify keeping him on long-term. He has definitely earned next season but let's not be rash in committing to him.
The other thing I learned is just how much organizations as a whole matter. Just look at the Jets. Their team is stacked from a roster standpoint, but because their not a well run organization, their record reflects it. But the Vikings are doing this well because of how well run of an organization they are despite pretty much everyone thinking they would be like 4-13
Developing through the trenches (on both sides) still remains the best way to build a team. That doesn’t just mean getting big guys. O-Line & D-Line coaching is vital! Great video!
13:21 Bro, if you watch Richardson out of the game. He does not care to be there. He’s not a good QB. He can’t throw a ball. And the longer the season goes on the more I want the Colts to Draft a QB. Not a project who has “potential”.
I wouldn't write off Detroit just yet despite the injuries. This feels like a team who could overcome the adversity. But it definitely looks like it'll be harder than before. Also the emergence of Sam Darnold as a quality starter is a really nice story. Genuinely hope this is how he plays for the next 8 years of his career, proving the Jets are one of the worst run teams in the league.
This season showed me ( backups) at any position is important! But Rbs is very important to keep the defense guessing. Coaching showed me that having the guts will determine win or loss.
AFC East: Bills: Can Josh Allen overcome suspect defense and questionable clock management from his HC? History says no, but this is also the best version of Allen we've ever seen. Dolphins: They quietly lost a lot of talent on the lines this offseason and it showed. It's also beginning to look like McDaniels and Tua can't beat teams that they don't heavily outmatch. I don't think his seat is hot yet but it's warming up for sure. Jets: Absolute disaster. From the true GM being a 17 year old to the washed QB who won't acknowledge he's a huge problem, there is little reason to hold out hope for the Jets. Patriots: They found their QB. The roster is still absolutely terrible and Mayo seems out of his depth as HC. A slow and steady rebuilding is needed but I worry they will try and cut corners to maximize Maye's rookie deal.
The biggest issue with drafting O-Lines isnt just drafting early. That doesnt really matter. The only thing that matters is the GM (and their teams) ability to actually identify the talent and then develop it. I say this is a Giants fan as we constantly draft linemen high and still have the worst O-Line in the league, because every GM we have is apparently completely unable to actually draft the line.
So was Rankin Smith, and so will be everyone else who owns that cursed franchise. Atlanta is a godforsaken city that William Tecumseh Sherman had the right idea about.
I agree with all of the points that you raised in this video! I think that the difference coaching makes was especially prevelent during the 2024 season, when you like at how teams like the Vikings and Broncos have performed, and then compare them to teams like the Jets, who had a very talented roster on paper, and had their season ruined by subpar coaching.
They’re both amazing players, there’s no right or wrong decision here. Do you think the lions regret drafting Sewell? No. Do the bengals regret drafting Jamar? Hell no. Just stop. Both teams got their guy
Amazing video! Thank you for always putting out amazing content! I’ve been subscribed since summer of 2020. It’s been cool to see your channel grow. Continue the amazing work 👍
@@TheRealSmokeKiller ngl I watched a video from back in 2020 a few weeks ago and it was rough lol. Glad you’ve stuck with me for so long and glad you enjoy the content!!
2024 showed everyone that RBs are still VERY important to the game. Look at what's happened since Derrick Henry and Saquan Barkley joined teams with an great OL and QB around them??
AR and the colts have so many problems that don’t include AR. The WR are so awful. The OLine was starting 3 rookies. He’s got a lot of work, but this team is horrific and most of the games we lost were 1 score games. The team is bad.
What we learned is how important the TEAM is and how foolish these $300 million contracts have become. The Vikings and the Steelers have won through the league with barely paid, left over QBs. The cowboys jags and bengals with their lofty contracts for single players, cannot touch the playoffs…
Bears woes on offense go back to the whole emphasis on RB and building the O-line. Sadly they thought having Swift/Johnson and Herbert in case of emergency was sufficient vs literally getting any of the other available RBs in Henry, Barkley, Jacobs or Jones, all of whom can break tackles and catch a ball out of the backfield. As for the O-line, their best lineman was a 1st round pick last year, but has health issues. Behind him is a 1st round talent they got in the 2nd round in 2021, who has even more health issues. Beyond that a lot of patch work. They’re fortunate to have a serviceable(when healthy) LT and their C after a bad start has stabilized, however, his early woes could also fall on having a “checked out” OG in Davis next to him. Once Davis was cut the interior line play got better.
Running game has exploded this year due to so many teams willing to give up the 5 yards to play a deep shell Cover on defense to shut down the big play
Another great video and year of content. I hope you’re able to find some time with your family and friends to enjoy the holiday season. My biggest takeaway from this season is how entertaining it is to see how the way the game changes, year-to-year. Our thoughts on positions like running-backs and their value with modern two high-safety looks, the importance of good coaching, and reaffirming the Jets will be a joke.
@@schmidtytime I will be enjoying the holiday season and can’t wait to eat cookies and hang out with family :) Pro tip don’t weigh yourself for a few days after Christmas hahaha
As a Texans fan yeah running back does matter if we didn’t have Mixon we would probably miss the playoffs due to mainly how awful our offense been this year
Nfc east Eagles:awesome organizational moves. This team is det up for a while. Lots to be happy about. 30 year old dpoty carter and davis with dejean and quinyon will be scary in 5 years. Cowboys:rebuild. Its so sad watching a washed zack martin. Giants:honestly just keeo the rebuild ot retool going. Better coaching. Commanders:snyder was the devil. Daniels is a baller.
Nfc west 49ers:new york rangers of football to a t. Can't escape it or win a championship game. Rams:mcvay is amazing. But they need defense, ad ramsey von wagner hid so many issues on this side of the ball. Seahawks:mike mcdonald is great Cardinals:mid highly erratic. Dont know why. Need more talent.
It is funny how different the narrative for Caleb is vs. Nix. Maybe it's because he was 1:1 and Nix was the sixth Q picked, but they're both rookies and Caleb's numbers are better. Period. But because the Broncos have a better record and because there's reason to believe that organization can do anything correctly, people are high on Nix - meanwhile the Bears have a bad record and there's zero faith that they'll ever be able to turn it around because Bears, so people are down on Caleb.
Seeing caleb williams ranking awfully in advanced stats like pressure qbr while daniels maye bo etc excelled or were decent in them is really telling of nfl ability rn.
Genuine question: were you doing a bit saying the words "thats one of the biggest things i learned over the 2024 season; to have realistic expectations" so many times? Or just a script oversight?
Afc east Bills:this is now a great org and they've successfully developed and grown an mvp qb Patriots:team needs tons of work but maye is good Jets:organization issue, but the team has tons of talent Dolphins: weather is a legit problem. This team should rebuild to.
The dolphins are honestly , and have been so for a while frauds . They can beat up east teams no problem . But they suck in the cold and against good teams . So long as that stays the case they will continue to choke
Nfc north Lions:elite coaching and org now still not immune to injury Packers:this is a goat organization and coaching situation. Vikings:this is a great org and coaching situation to now. Bears:this is an awful org and coaching situation. Williams is struggling.
Richardson is a terrific athlete. What he isn't is a great QB. If he is given some good coaching, and holds himself accountable, he could become much better. But it would mean a combination of coaching and learning.
Nfc south Bucs:this is a great org now. Trust Todd bowles and baker. Panthers:young has life. Saints:rebuild. No more ryan rmaczyk armstead carr kamara 35 year old mlb and corner. Falcons:organizational collapse.
Afc west Chiefs:go go go greenlight double 80 lightweight baby! Chargers:haurbaugh is great at getting defense. But they need wrs. Broncos:sean Payton wasn't wrong. This team is built great and fun to watch. Raiders:antonio pierce what happened, last year you were the promising turnaround defensive hc.
Afc north Ravens:lamar is elite but they need better wrs or an elite defende again. Steelers:tomlin is historically good. Get this man offensive talent and he will deliver. Bengals:burrow and chase are insanely good. Sell the team to a richer owner. Browns:organizational failure
The main thing I've learned is that the QB landscape is changing and teams that are stuck in the past are not going to find success. If your QB takes too many sacks, it's time to get a younger guy that can avoid sacks under center. We saw the Commanders do just that and they significantly improved. Never trust a QB who hasn't played football in over a year as your main starter. Rodgers is bad this year (and was bad in his last season after the real MVP wasn't catching his passes), Watson hasn't played like a starter since the Browns went for him and this season was even worse. We saw a resurgence of Joe Flacco because he wasn't the starter, he was a midseason signee with something to prove, and this year he didn't have as good of an OL. It's truly just time to move on from trying to settle with a pocket passer if you can't keep them protected. Yes I mostly say this as the Seahawks fan who constantly talks about the Seahawks needing to move on from Geno, but still. It matters.
@ sure but when you look at the rbs in the top ten over the past decade (Gurley, Zeke, Fournette, CMC, Saquon) they have had their own unique and interesting paths but given Jeanty’s similar elite resume and the importance of RBs this year for good teams with good O lines (as stated in the video) I think someone will bite the bullet and take him early
Bo Nix and Caleb Williams have NEAR IDENTICAL stats in everything except interceptions in which Williams has 5 compared to Nix’s 11. How is one of these getting praise yet Williams is treated like the worst player in NFL history
Can we end this “ruined” a player talk there is literally no such thing. If baker darnold and fields all can have competent seasons this year there is no such thing as a “ruined” player
@FootballAnalysis1 yeah I know, but was thinking that Dave Canales showed how the rookie QB narrative is way more dependant on the coaching approach, which I mean everyone knows that already but I feel like the recent rookie breakouts made a lot of people forget, specially since we are also mentioning Darnold inprovement since is pretty similar (not just for being a formar panther)
Blaming Michael Pittman for underachieving with who’s throwing him the ball is hilarious he’s at his best with short and intermediate plays and Richardson couldn’t hit a 5 yard hitch to save his life his best games were with Flacco in at qb the entire problem with the offense rest on Richardson

They get paid even when underperforming
Coaching makes a huge difference. Thinking of KOC and how much he's changed the culture and the trust the team has in him. Also, despite his age, Aaron Jones was a huge upgrade for the Vikings and a great piece for them to balance out Jet and JA's passing game. I think the Bears got rid of the cancer that was their head coach and don't think Caleb is "ruined". He's played hard and it seems his team still believe and trust him.
Honestly I think Caleb gets too much hate a 3-1 TD to INT ratio is great for a rookie especially consistently playing under pressure and from behind
He’s also lost 4 fumbles and missed so many open receivers that it’s painful to watch
Another thing is injuries and how they can impact a team… from short term even to long term… for example, the Lions are one of the best teams right now in the NFL, however they have been hit with so many injuries and it could potentially impact them on their run to the Super Bowl
I still dont understand why people thought the Bears would be better than the Vikings this year. Even without Darnold playing out of his mind, did people really think an unproven Bears team would outmatch KOC? What?!
I don't think Darnold is playing very well. I see his receivers making plays. I think they made Kirk Cousins look good too.
@@Dragon-BelieverYou can only really come to that conclusion by completely glossing over the fact that, no matter how good the receivers are, Darnold still has to be the one to get the ball to them.
@jonathanharsh7434 he's not really getting it to them. He's just putting it in the general area and the defender is in no position to make a play because they are beat. I don't think what he's doing would work on another team.
AFC South:
Texans: Legitimate chance to be a contender over the next few years, but they are wasting an elite defense with an atrocious OL. If they address that this offseason, look out.
Colts: Owner's brain is fried from all the cocaine he's used over his life and the GM refuses to address the team's flaws. I think they run it back with Richardson again but they need change, preferably at GM.
Jags: Owner is absentee all year and either doesn't care about results or is incapable of hiring the right people. Not sure which is worse tbh. Regardless, Jags are quietly one of the bigger disasters of this season and need an exorcism of that front office that I'm not sure is coming.
Titans: They missed badly on Will Levis but there are bright spots. I fear they will throw the bag at Darnold this offseason instead of following through on the rebuild Carthon has started.
Titans never should’ve fired vrabel. I think that’s what screwed over Will Levis development his team is better than last year but I don’t think Calhoun is a good coach. Titans are a 7-10 win team with vrabel and Levis looks significantly better
NFC West:
Rams: Stafford and McVay are still damn good at their jobs and Puka Nacua is an absolute game wrecker. If injuries didn't shank them out of the gate this year, they'd be running away with this division.
Seahawks: The OL is abominable. Even if they limp into the postseason, you simply cannot win in January with such a poor level of play from the guys up front.
Cardinals: An anomaly. They have solid pieces rounding out the roster but just can't seem to consistently put it together. MHJ hasn't been the stud he was promised to be and I can't help but feel that held the offense back this year.
49ers: Purdy/Shanahan cannot compensate for key players missing and the offense doesn't function without Trent Williams. A year from Hell for the Niners between injuries and drama. Expect them to come out swinging next year.
AFC West:
Chiefs: Call it dumb luck but they understand the assignment when it comes to situational football. The OL worries me but not enough to bet against Mahomes in the playoffs.
Chargers: Rome wasn't built in a day. They're on the right track but are still missing pieces, primarily on offense, before they take that next step. I expect a big jump from them next season.
Broncos: Sean Payton was right to ditch Wilson and the defense continues to be borderline elite. I'm concerned they overachieved this year and are setting up to disappoint next year unless they enter the offseason with urgency.
Raiders: Antonio Pierce is not an NFL HC and Telesco will lead them to ruin sooner than later. If they nail their coaching search though, a lot of their problems go away. Brock Bowers is already a great building block for the next regime.
I think the Broncos are using their own blueprint from the championship season in 2015. If the team uses Nix's rookie contract as the cap gift to add the right piece on that side of the ball, they could have an '00 Ravens/'13 Seahawks situation next year and win the Super Bowl.
The broncos take is Factz
And fans always get disappointed in these situations.
Same when the Texans overachieved last season!
I really hope Richardson starts to click on the Colts next year. As someone who lives in Indiana and gets Colts games on my local tv channels, I want to see them bring great pro football back to Indiana again
Colts fan here, AR is oozing with talent and he’s looked sharp for his experience level and our piss poor team, our offense is either inconsistent or trash most weeks because o line loves penalties, WRs/TEs are never open, and JT is extremely inconsistent. If we cleaned house offensively, and got an OC that could call plays AR will be like Lamar Jackson with Andrew Lucks strength and arm in 2 years. People give Gus Bradley a hard time but he has made our defense formidable with practice squad guys and 3rd stringers especially in the secondary. Steichen loves to call Hail Marys every play and the whole offense basically relies on a young inexperienced QB to bail them out every game. Ballard is good at getting role players but refuses to get the playmakers in free agency. Steichen is a good HC bad OC. We need a good offensive coordinator that calls the plays and we need to go out and get a star TE and get Gus Bradly’s secondary some pieces. The Colts are in purgatory because every game is basically Kenny Moore, Latu, Buckner, AR, Gus Bradly and Steichen vs the other team
AR has all the talent in the world he's just still very raw because he injured his shoulder last year and this season is basically still his rookie year people just need to be patient with him
He wont
Streameast
@@Canadawolf7 the offense has given him zero help and Steichen refuses to call plays that cater to his talent
NFC North:
Lions: When healthy, this is the best team in football. They weren't just beating teams, they were destroying their opponents. Sadly, I think they are consigned to an early exit on account of their defense catching fire, but if anyone can overcome something like that it's MCDC.
Vikings: Between getting All Pro caliber play of out Sam 'Seeing Ghosts' Darnold and the defense actively making every OC look like a nimrod when playing them, safe to say this is the best coaching staff in the league.
Packers: They are a Top 5 NFC team that made the ill-advised mistake of being in a stacked division. Joe Barry's dismissal has turned the defense into a serious threat.
Bears: This term is thrown around in excess but the McCaskeys are genuinely football terrorists. Bears will seldom be relevant as long as they own the team and considering the measures taken to become majority owners in the first place....buckle up Chicago.
Hot Take: DC isn't going to overcome the defense injuries, because he's part of the reason why they're all broken. It's fun to see a team win 54-whatever, but if it comes at the cost of the well-being of your players, it's not worth it. A team that wins by narrow margins but can stay healthy will always go further than a blowout machine that physically falls apart when it matters most.
What I think is interesting too is there hasn’t been that many major running back injuries this season despite more use
I'd imagine most starters are hurt at this point in the season, just not ruled out
To me, the biggest take is that ownership means everything to a team’s success. Washington completely turned their franchise around in a very short amount of time when they got a good owner while teams like the Jets and Bears who made big splashes at the QB position had all-time embarrassing seasons, and teams like the Giants and Browns look like they don’t have a clue as to what they are doing.
New England fell off a cliff when the Kraft family got high on their own supply. Much like Reinsdorf and Krause in Chicago, they confused lucking into a generational talent and the right coach for being brilliant franchise builders.
I learned from the Patriots that, just because you learned from the greatest defensive coach of all time doesn't mean you'll be a great defensive coach..
Here's what should be learned from the 2024 NFL season: Always draft WRs from LSU.
Closing in on 175K! Been with you for a while now. God bless man
@texansfan0528 thank you for the continued support!! Hoping for 200k by the draft!!
Yeah you’re hyping Richardson too much. Saying he has made plays only 2 others can make in bro history is just awful. I’ve stood by this since before the draft, mahomes has ruined qb evaluation. If a guy can launch the football people take chances. He’s never been good not even in college
Facts. It's like the "make 3s or off the team" mentality the NBA has. The way sports drool over offensive potential with no regards to other aspects of the game is crazy.
I learned how evidently seriously some teams bought into the idea that "eh, we don't need an RB; just have our quarterback throw his check-downs, same thing." No it's not, obviously, and it's clear that trends beat good football commonsense more often than we'd care to admit. "Gee, how can we beat this cover-two defense?" Well, you could try getting a good run game with a running back and an oline ...?
I think teams really need to stop falling in love with an offensive coordinator doing well with a team and then jumping straight to a HC job right after that success. Same with defensive coordinators. HC is way more of a task and too many good OCs/DCs become bad Head coaches (Todd Bowles, Arthur Smith just to name a few)
Bowles is good. He's had issues but he's a good coach overall
@@basicmeme1040he’s a great defensive coordinator, not a good head coach
@@JoystickFantasyFball ironically his best moves at hc have been managing the offense and offensive development and gameplanning
Kingsbury, Spagnolo
I can’t wait for the season to end. You were referencing me, thank you. Sanders or bust for the Raiders! Lowkey though, rumors are that if we can’t get Sanders, we’ll go BPA and grab Dillon Gabriel in the 3rd and work on him as a project QB.
Dillion is a first or second rounder…
@ he might move up draft boards but he’s not gonna go in the first. He won’t be an immediate pay off and the super QB needy teams will have their guys early. Gabriel could go in the 2nd but the beginning of the 3rd seems most realistic right now.
I think ward should be good too sanders seems a better fit for the raiders but can’t go wrong with either
Take Hunter #1 and build the lines in free agency. There’s no good QB prospects. Sanders, Ward, Gabriel, they’re all massively overhyped. Take the best player of a generation and worry about a QB in the next cycle.
@@FrankReynolds182 based on where we are I would be pretty surprised if Shedeur isn’t a Raider personally
NFC South:
Bucs: Their offense, when healthy, can go blow for blow with anyone, which is great because their defense is atrocious. Not sure what happened to it but secondary has to be a chief concern entering 2025.
Falcons: N/A. We're about to see a completely different Falcons team over the next three games. Everything we may have learned prior might no longer hold true.
Kirk Cousin: Father time is undefeated for a reason and the Achilles tear remains absolute poison.
Saints: You can dodge the cap hit all you want but don't expect to miraculously improve while doing so. It's time NOLA, rip the band-aid off.
Panthers: A controversial take, but there isn't anything Bryce Young is doing that you cannot also get out of a backup. Just because he is playing well enough to where you can actually evaluate the rest of the roster doesn't justify keeping him on long-term. He has definitely earned next season but let's not be rash in committing to him.
The other thing I learned is just how much organizations as a whole matter. Just look at the Jets. Their team is stacked from a roster standpoint, but because their not a well run organization, their record reflects it. But the Vikings are doing this well because of how well run of an organization they are despite pretty much everyone thinking they would be like 4-13
steveson’s taunt at the end of the game cursed us
@@teslaman0650 that and the Hail Mary broke the spirit of the entire franchise. Their hearts weren’t in it after that play and loss
Developing through the trenches (on both sides) still remains the best way to build a team. That doesn’t just mean getting big guys. O-Line & D-Line coaching is vital!
Great video!
I hate that people blame Caleb his O-line is worse than black panther in marvel rivals
13:21 Bro, if you watch Richardson out of the game. He does not care to be there. He’s not a good QB. He can’t throw a ball. And the longer the season goes on the more I want the Colts to Draft a QB. Not a project who has “potential”.
Loved the extra cheer in “Let’s Begin!”
I wouldn't write off Detroit just yet despite the injuries. This feels like a team who could overcome the adversity. But it definitely looks like it'll be harder than before.
Also the emergence of Sam Darnold as a quality starter is a really nice story. Genuinely hope this is how he plays for the next 8 years of his career, proving the Jets are one of the worst run teams in the league.
This season showed me ( backups) at any position is important! But Rbs is very important to keep the defense guessing. Coaching showed me that having the guts will determine win or loss.
We've learned that 3/4 of the Teams in the League are Average - Bad.
And all r having a tank race for the number one pick
@@SavataricWe also have quite a few mediocre teams from clubs that were expected to be good (e.g. Texans and Falcons)
AFC East:
Bills: Can Josh Allen overcome suspect defense and questionable clock management from his HC? History says no, but this is also the best version of Allen we've ever seen.
Dolphins: They quietly lost a lot of talent on the lines this offseason and it showed. It's also beginning to look like McDaniels and Tua can't beat teams that they don't heavily outmatch. I don't think his seat is hot yet but it's warming up for sure.
Jets: Absolute disaster. From the true GM being a 17 year old to the washed QB who won't acknowledge he's a huge problem, there is little reason to hold out hope for the Jets.
Patriots: They found their QB. The roster is still absolutely terrible and Mayo seems out of his depth as HC. A slow and steady rebuilding is needed but I worry they will try and cut corners to maximize Maye's rookie deal.
The biggest issue with drafting O-Lines isnt just drafting early. That doesnt really matter. The only thing that matters is the GM (and their teams) ability to actually identify the talent and then develop it. I say this is a Giants fan as we constantly draft linemen high and still have the worst O-Line in the league, because every GM we have is apparently completely unable to actually draft the line.
I learned that ultimately, Arthur blank has been a failed owner of the Falcons
So was Rankin Smith, and so will be everyone else who owns that cursed franchise. Atlanta is a godforsaken city that William Tecumseh Sherman had the right idea about.
"The 2024 season is coming to a close" that cut deep lol
@@CJSmallz330 very sad indeed
I agree with all of the points that you raised in this video! I think that the difference coaching makes was especially prevelent during the 2024 season, when you like at how teams like the Vikings and Broncos have performed, and then compare them to teams like the Jets, who had a very talented roster on paper, and had their season ruined by subpar coaching.
@@co81385 thank you glad you enjoyed!!
I stand by my take that the Bengals should've drafted Penei Sewell instead of Ja Marr Chase in 2021
They’re both amazing players, there’s no right or wrong decision here. Do you think the lions regret drafting Sewell? No. Do the bengals regret drafting Jamar? Hell no. Just stop. Both teams got their guy
Amazing video! Thank you for always putting out amazing content! I’ve been subscribed since summer of 2020. It’s been cool to see your channel grow. Continue the amazing work 👍
@@TheRealSmokeKiller ngl I watched a video from back in 2020 a few weeks ago and it was rough lol. Glad you’ve stuck with me for so long and glad you enjoy the content!!
2024 showed everyone that RBs are still VERY important to the game. Look at what's happened since Derrick Henry and Saquan Barkley joined teams with an great OL and QB around them??
AR and the colts have so many problems that don’t include AR. The WR are so awful. The OLine was starting 3 rookies.
He’s got a lot of work, but this team is horrific and most of the games we lost were 1 score games.
The team is bad.
Id say the teams in the roughest spots rn are the browns saints and raiders.
What we learned is how important the TEAM is and how foolish these $300 million contracts have become. The Vikings and the Steelers have won through the league with barely paid, left over QBs. The cowboys jags and bengals with their lofty contracts for single players, cannot touch the playoffs…
I'm hungry for bacon mashed potatos now. Totally a world class meal.
Didn't we know this already when CMC was demolishing the league last year? Lacking him to start this year really hurt the 9ers.
Bears woes on offense go back to the whole emphasis on RB and building the O-line. Sadly they thought having Swift/Johnson and Herbert in case of emergency was sufficient vs literally getting any of the other available RBs in Henry, Barkley, Jacobs or Jones, all of whom can break tackles and catch a ball out of the backfield. As for the O-line, their best lineman was a 1st round pick last year, but has health issues. Behind him is a 1st round talent they got in the 2nd round in 2021, who has even more health issues. Beyond that a lot of patch work. They’re fortunate to have a serviceable(when healthy) LT and their C after a bad start has stabilized, however, his early woes could also fall on having a “checked out” OG in Davis next to him. Once Davis was cut the interior line play got better.
Running game has exploded this year due to so many teams willing to give up the 5 yards to play a deep shell Cover on defense to shut down the big play
Another great video and year of content. I hope you’re able to find some time with your family and friends to enjoy the holiday season.
My biggest takeaway from this season is how entertaining it is to see how the way the game changes, year-to-year. Our thoughts on positions like running-backs and their value with modern two high-safety looks, the importance of good coaching, and reaffirming the Jets will be a joke.
@@schmidtytime I will be enjoying the holiday season and can’t wait to eat cookies and hang out with family :)
Pro tip don’t weigh yourself for a few days after Christmas hahaha
I came up in the era of RB...glad that's back and the era of QB'S throwing for 300 or high 200's on a regular.. Hope that returns!!

I remember the hot picks were the Bears and Atlanta going to the SB
It is funny how different the narrative for Caleb is vs. Nix. Maybe it's because he was 1:1 and Nix was the sixth Q picked, but they're both rookies and Caleb's numbers are better. Period. But because the Broncos have a better record and because there's reason to believe that organization can do anything correctly, people are high on Nix - meanwhile the Bears have a bad record and there's zero faith that they'll ever be able to turn it around because Bears, so people are down on Caleb.
That steak potatoes reference was legit 😂👍🏻
Oh well, AR could join the Vikings in a few years as a back up and possibly revive his career if he has to.
Gonna guess he’ll talk about bears, bengals, broncos, Vikings, jets, chargers
Seeing caleb williams ranking awfully in advanced stats like pressure qbr while daniels maye bo etc excelled or were decent in them is really telling of nfl ability rn.

As a browns fan, I HATE Jimmy Haslam, worst owner in football, he put our organization straight in to the gutter these past couple off seasons.
I big takeaway. The Jets have become the new Lions of the league. The team stuck in endless rebuild
The main thing I've learned is that the QB landscape is changing and teams that are stuck in the past are not going to find success. If your QB takes too many sacks, it's time to get a younger guy that can avoid sacks under center. We saw the Commanders do just that and they significantly improved. Never trust a QB who hasn't played football in over a year as your main starter. Rodgers is bad this year (and was bad in his last season after the real MVP wasn't catching his passes), Watson hasn't played like a starter since the Browns went for him and this season was even worse. We saw a resurgence of Joe Flacco because he wasn't the starter, he was a midseason signee with something to prove, and this year he didn't have as good of an OL. It's truly just time to move on from trying to settle with a pocket passer if you can't keep them protected.
Yes I mostly say this as the Seahawks fan who constantly talks about the Seahawks needing to move on from Geno, but still. It matters.
7:35 as you say this thiugh hes getting amazing blocks and huge holes to run through. O line matters. Barkley id a lerfect example.
I’ve learned the game is just about gambling anymore.
It’s gonna be interesting to see what the buzz will be like around Ashton Jeanty in the draft. I’ll bet he goes top 10, maybe even top 5
He shouldn’t
Look at how many good RBs are taken out of round 1!!!
@ sure but when you look at the rbs in the top ten over the past decade (Gurley, Zeke, Fournette, CMC, Saquon) they have had their own unique and interesting paths but given Jeanty’s similar elite resume and the importance of RBs this year for good teams with good O lines (as stated in the video) I think someone will bite the bullet and take him early
Bo Nix and Caleb Williams have NEAR IDENTICAL stats in everything except interceptions in which Williams has 5 compared to Nix’s 11. How is one of these getting praise yet Williams is treated like the worst player in NFL history
The texans are a prime example of running backs matter, they shouldn't have as good of a record as they do if you ask me and im a texans fan
Can we end this “ruined” a player talk there is literally no such thing. If baker darnold and fields all can have competent seasons this year there is no such thing as a “ruined” player
My takeaway is QB's are still overvalued as always.
O line and coaching are undervalued
Anthony Richardson is poor man’s Cam Newton

@@TheDarkkitos I think Canales is fine personally, just in a tough situation. I also mentioned them with the progression during the video
@FootballAnalysis1 yeah I know, but was thinking that Dave Canales showed how the rookie QB narrative is way more dependant on the coaching approach, which I mean everyone knows that already but I feel like the recent rookie breakouts made a lot of people forget, specially since we are also mentioning Darnold inprovement since is pretty similar (not just for being a formar panther)

Damn darnold is balling out I think Minnesota got stick with him I think JJ McCarthy about to end up with the same career as Trey Lance
I think Caleb will be fine… as soon as he gets out of Chicago 😅. He could have a Baker type path in the nfl
