If I had to pick one definitely the Steelers. Who knows how much Rodgers has in the tank, they only have one strong WR and they have no proven RB1 either. Plus I think the Bengals and Browns will be better this season. The Steelers are never awful and always in the playoff race, and their D is strong enough to give them a chance, but I think it’s more likely the Steelers miss the playoffs this season than make it.

Looking up the stats of the guys I guessed.
I'm surprised Brees didn't do it and he wasn't that close. Cousins had 99 with Wash!!!

But Tarkenton had 103 TDs with the Giants :scratch:

1967 - 29
1968 - 21
1969 - 23
1970 - 19
1971 - 11

Total 103

Brees only played one full season with the Chargers starting and two half ones.

I could see this although I think there is at least a 50% chance the Bengals dont get better. Joe Burrow just had his best season. You're basically betting on the Bengals defense getting better and Joe Burrow having another MVP run.

According to SRS (Simple Rating System) the Browns were by far the worst team in the NFL last year. 31st in offense, 23rd in defense. I could see that improving.

The Bengals had some bad luck last season and lost several close games, I think they’ll likely be better on D, although I am not sure what will happen with Hendrickson and I wasn’t a fan of the Shemar Stewart pick. Burrow is a top 4 QB in the NFL and the O should be great.
The Browns should have a decent D IMO and their O should be better if they get their QB situation figured out.
The Steelers are interesting in how they are always competitive and in the playoff mix but never a real contender - if Rodgers still has some left in the tank that will be the case with them again this year, if Rodgers doesn’t play well then they will probably have a losing season finally.
But overall the Steelers look like definitely the weakest of the 7 AFC playoff teams from last season coming into 2025

Bengals expected W-L last year was 9.3/7.7 so they were slightly unlucky

I guess to a certain degree it seems like Burrows stock is as high as its ever been and Rodgers at the lowest and things might regress to the mean next year.
