I think if you would've told me in preseason that Deshaun Watson would have an 8.3 YPA and over a 2 to 1 TD/Int ratio then I would've said that they would've been a 13-3 type of team. This whole question is a bit difficult.

If the Cowboys were officially eliminated, they would definitely be the most surprising. And this can't all be blamed on the Zeke suspension because they sucked even before he couldn't play.

It's the locker room distraction he represented..... Is he or isn't he......

Almost as bad as a certain somebody....

Giants. Weren't some people saying they were a Super Bowl contender going into this season?

I voted Denver because of the D but then realized a noob, unproven HC . How they hire some of these, is beyond me.

I never bought into Tampa this season

And I always thought Denver was playing with fire going with the "No QB" approach again, and banking on an aging defense to carry them completely again

So I guess the answer could be different for all of us based on what we personally expected

I bought into Tampa a little.

But, I've been higher on the Mariota/Winston duo in general than most people. Both are too wreckless with the ball to be playoff caliber QBs...I think both are being under coached.

Giants, Broncos, did not expect grand things but boy have they sucked this year. Also, the Browns. Nothing big but with all they did in OS was expecting some wins, at least 4-6 wins. 0-13 is, uh well, it’s the Browns way.

Giants.

I'm not surprised they missed the playoffs but going from 11-5 to looking to lock up the 2nd overall pick in the draft is a huge drop.
