Which teams are good?

can you post top players from each team

Each NFL team’s most important offensive player

Arizona Cardinals — David Johnson, RB

It’s not really a coincidence that the Cardinals struggled so much last season after Johnson suffered a season-ending wrist injury after just 11 carries in the season opener. The 26-year-old scored 20 touchdowns the year before, so losing him meant the absence of their biggest playmaker. He should be ready to go this season, and Arizona will be desperate for him to return to the form that saw him lead the NFL with 2,118 yards from scrimmage in 2016.

Atlanta Falcons — Julio Jones, WR

The Falcons will want to get Jones’s contract situation squared away as quickly as possible, because Matt Ryan needs him. His yardage numbers are incredible, and he’s collected at least 1,400 yards receiving in every season since 2014, even in spite of the occasional health issue. 1,500 yards is well within reach for Jones if he is healthy in 2018.

 

Baltimore Ravens — Michael Crabtree, WR

Crabtree is one of several players who has been brought in to try to add some life to what has been a very dull offense. He was a thousand-yard receiver two years ago, and while it may be a stretch to get him there again with Joe Flacco throwing to him, he’s at least going to be key to giving the Baltimore quarterback better weapons. Beware, though, because if Lamar Jackson gets a chance, the could very quickly seize this spot.

Buffalo Bills — LeSean McCoy, RB

Provided McCoy stays on the field, he’s the most established and accomplished offensive player the Bills have. He ran for another thousand yards last season, and has proven to be fairly durable and versatile as well. Given that the Bills are intent on giving rookie quarterback Josh Allen time on the bench to get acclimated to the league, McCoy is going to carry a heavy load for this offense.

Carolina Panthers — Cam Newton, QB

When Newton plays well, Carolina usually wins. When he struggles with inconsistency and bad decisions, things get tough. That’s the way it’s always been for the Panthers and their mercurial quarterback, who can look like an MVP one week and an average NFL quarterback the next. Cam is incredibly talented, but he needs to cut down on his 16 picks from 2017 and take better care of the ball going forward.

Chicago Bears — Mitchell Trubisky, QB

As talented as Jordan Howard is, there are lingering questions about his role in a Matt Nagy offense that asks running backs to play an active role in the receiving game. Thus, we’re going with Trubisky, who showed flashes of promise in his rookie season despite spending a lot of it shackled with few weapons to utilize. He has a bit more surrounding him this year, and there’s a chance that the second-year quarterback could take a big step forward.

Cincinnati Bengals — A.J. Green, WR

Green hasn’t quite been the statistical juggernaut he once was the last two years, but injuries had a lot to do with that in 2016. He got back over the thousand-yard mark last season, and should do so again with health. The Bengals’ offense hasn’t been good lately, but Green remains one of the NFL’s best receivers. The recipe for their success is getting the ball in his hands.

Cleveland Browns — Duke Johnson, RB/WR

One would think that the Browns would have been more aggressive in using a talented offensive playmaker like Johnson as they trudged toward an 0-16 season, but they just didn’t get the guy enough touches. He still managed over 1,000 yards from scrimmage, and he scored seven total touchdowns in what was otherwise a lost season. Cleveland may have added competition in Carlos Hyde and Nick Chubb, but there still should be room for Johnson to shine.

Dallas Cowboys — Dak Prescott, QB

Ezekiel Elliott is the better player, but he should have a strong season no matter what as long as he stays on the field to run behind Dallas’ outstanding line. The vital cog here is Prescott, who must prove now that he can step up and be the undisputed leader of a team without the likes of Dez Bryant and Jason Witten with him. His second NFL season was a disappointment as his yardage went down and his interceptions went up, but he was still statistically solid. The Cowboys are looking for greatness; it’s time to see what he’s made of.

Denver Broncos — Case Keenum, QB

How real is this journeyman’s mid-career revival? The Broncos are betting on it being legitimate after signing him to be their starting quarterback. Keenum won 11 of his 14 regular season starts for Minnesota, throwing for 3,547 yards in the process. Denver’s struggles at the quarterback position in recent years have been well-documented. They have playoff ambitions, and in order to reach them, Keenum must be the same player he was for the Vikings.

Detroit Lions — Matthew Stafford, QB

It remains true that as Stafford goes, so go the Lions. When he completed at least 65 percent of his passes last season, Detroit was 8-2; when he didn’t, they were 1-5. They can’t really win without him having a good, efficient game. He surpassed 4,000 yards for the seventh straight season, improved on his touchdown tally from 2016, and kept his interceptions fairly low. Any success the Lions have offensively is pretty much down to him.

Green Bay Packers — Aaron Rodgers, QB

You don’t need to look hard to see how important Rodgers is to the Packers. In a season mostly wiped out by a collarbone injury, they went 4-3 when he started and 3-6 when he didn’t. When he wasn’t on the field, the offense looked downright brutal more often than not. They’ve built so much of their team around him and his talents that they don’t really know what to do when he’s not around. Seeing him run the team without his favorite target Jordy Nelson should be intriguing.

Houston Texans — Deshaun Watson, QB

As talented as DeAndre Hopkins is, Watson’s brief, injury-shortened cameo was tantalizingly exciting for NFL fans everywhere in 2017. In just seven games, the rookie threw 19 touchdown passes and added two more with his legs. He should be healthy in 2018. One of the most exciting storylines of the season will be seeing what he can do with a full, healthy season.

Indianapolis Colts — Andrew Luck, QB

Getting Luck back on the field will be a victory in itself considering how long his shoulder has been a thorn in his side. In his last healthy season, he threw for over 4,000 yards and 31 touchdowns, so it’s easy to forget just how gifted he is. It’s still worth holding your breath over his recovery — the Colts need to get him through training camp first.

Jacksonville Jaguars — Leonard Fournette, RB

If you’re Blake Bortles, your job is to take care of the ball, make the occasional play, and otherwise let Fournette do his thing. The standout rookie only played in 13 games, but still eclipsed the thousand-yard mark and chipped in nine touchdowns. The Jaguars figure to ride him heavily again in 2018 while hoping health isn’t as big an issue this season.

Kansas City Chiefs — Patrick Mahomes, QB

No matter what you think of Alex Smith, the decision to get rid of him after he went 50-26 over five seasons with the Chiefs is a bold one. It’s arguably even bolder to turn around and hand the ball to an unproven second-year pro. Kansas City is doing just that, and Mahomes looked capable during his brief cameo in 2017. If the Chiefs expect to make the playoffs again, though, he’ll have to be composed and ready right away.

Los Angeles Chargers — Keenan Allen, WR

Philip Rivers had his usual strong season, but the Chargers became one of the NFL’s best passing offenses because of the emergence of Allen. He recovered from injury to turn in his best year to date, with 1,393 yards and six touchdowns. That will have to continue for the Los Angeles offense to remain as good as it was, especially since the depth on the offense could allow Allen to really create some mismatches.

Los Angeles Rams — Todd Gurley, RB

Gurley could have an MVP award in his future with more seasons like his 2017, when he had to settle for Offensive Player of the Year honors from the AP. He posted career-bests across the board with 2,093 yards from scrimmage and 19 total touchdowns. A dual threat both on the ground and through the air in Sean McVay’s offense, one could definitely argue that his was the best offensive season of any NFL player in 2017. Gurley’s breakout was a big part of the Rams transforming into a playoff team.

Miami Dolphins — Ryan Tannehill, QB

The Dolphins made a very big statement about Tannehill when they declined to trade up from No. 11 and pursue a quarterback early in the draft. That means Tannehill is the guy, at least for this year. In his last fully healthy 16-game season, he threw for 4,208 yards and 24 touchdowns. Miami is hoping Tannehill gets up to speed quickly and can recapture some of that form, and then some.

Minnesota Vikings — Kirk Cousins, QB

Cousins will be adapting to a new environment, but he’s a pretty safe bet for Minnesota at the quarterback position. With a better set of weapons in Minnesota than he had in Washington, 30 touchdowns should be considered within the realm of possibility. Anything less than 4,000 yards would probably count as a disappointment. There is a lot of reason to be excited about what he could do with a squad like this one.

New England Patriots — Tom Brady, QB

It couldn’t be anyone else. At 40, he managed to lead the NFL with 4,577 passing yards, and he hasn’t lost more than four games as a starter in a season since 2009. His consistency is incomparable. Expect another 30 touchdowns and 4,000 yards for a playoff Patriots team in 2018, health-permitting.

New Orleans Saints — Drew Brees, QB

The Saints have to be dreading the day that Brees walks away, because no other NFL team has been able to so consistently count on having a quarterback who won’t get hurt and will deliver 5,000 yards and 30 touchdowns. Even if his numbers were down a bit in 2017, he still led the league in pass completions. There’s no real indication that he’s about to become ineffective anytime soon.

New York Giants — Odell Beckham Jr., WR

Beckham has much to prove. He’s been unable to stay on the field due to injury, he’s had off-field distractions, he’s had questions about his attitude, and he’s entering a contract year. He can quiet a lot of critics with a healthy, distraction-free year more like his first three seasons, when he was routinely hitting the thousand-yard mark and scoring double-digit touchdowns. If he does, the Giants’ offense will be a lot better.

New York Jets — Quincy Enunwa, WR

For all the talk about Sam Darnold, the cupboard is still pretty bare on offense for the Jets, and the No. 3 overall pick doesn’t look likely to play at any point early in the season, if at all. That leaves us looking for potential comebacks. Enunwa missed all of 2017 with a neck injury, which was a real shame for him as he’d looked like a potential breakout candidate. He still is — the 26-year-old had 857 yards and four touchdown catches in 2016, his last regular season action.

Oakland Raiders — Derek Carr, QB

Carr went from MVP candidate to mediocrity very quickly, and the hope is that Jon Gruden will be able to bring him back to his 2016 form. He’s still never thrown for 4,000 yards — he was 13 short in 2015 — and only hit 30 touchdowns once. The Raiders will have to evaluate whether Carr is still the franchise quarterback they think he is, so there’s a lot at stake for him in 2018. The hope is that he’s beyond a back injury that limited him in 2017.

Philadelphia Eagles — Carson Wentz, QB

With all due respect to Nick Foles, who did ultimately quarterback Philadelphia through their successful playoff run, this team belongs to Wentz. The Eagles earned the top spot in the NFC largely because of him. He was on his way toward potential MVP honors when he tore his ACL and LCL, with 33 touchdowns to just seven interceptions. The first step will be getting him back on the field, while the second will be hoping he can recapture the magic he had going for him before he got hurt. There is a lot of confidence that he will be ready in Week 1.

Pittsburgh Steelers — Le’Veon Bell, RB

Bell and the Steelers are in for a somewhat awkward season given the public admission that it’s almost certainly his last in Pittsburgh. He has a long track record as the NFL’s best all-purpose back, and given how his contract negotiations went, he’s certain to be extremely motivated in 2018. A return to 2,000 all-purpose yards is well within the realm of possibility.

San Francisco 49ers — Jimmy Garoppolo, QB

Garoppolo certainly looked for real during his five-start run down the stretch for San Francisco, though it remains to be seen how he’ll cope with a full season of defenses gameplanning for him. Still, the former Patriot was efficient and successful, and it’s no coincidence that the Niners turned their fortunes around after turning the offense over to him. He’s got a big payday now, and the franchise belongs to him, for better or worse.

Seattle Seahawks — Russell Wilson, QB

Even as the rest of the team seemingly fell apart around him, Wilson made the best of things with a running game that didn’t offer much help. He led the league with 34 touchdowns, tied for a career-best. The fact that this was not close to the best Seahawks teams he’s played on makes it even more impressive. The Seahawks can be confident in Wilson to have another quality season, no matter the turmoil in other parts of the organization.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers — Mike Evans, WR

Evans has become a bona fide No. 1 NFL receiver, even though his numbers dipped a bit last season. He has two 12-touchdown seasons to his name, and he’s never fallen short of the thousand-yard mark. He’ll be in for an interesting year with regular quarterback Jameis Winston set to be suspended for part of it. Whoever’s playing quarterback will at least have Evans to throw to.

Tennessee Titans — Marcus Mariota, QB

It’s getting to be put up or shut up time for Mariota, who remains supremely talented but inconsistent. Even though he led the Titans to a playoff win last season, he threw more interceptions than touchdowns in the regular season. The offense under new coach Mike Vrabel will be tailored to him and his dual-threat ability. If he takes a step forward, the Titans will be very much worth watching.

Washington Redskins — Alex Smith, QB

It’s somewhat remarkable that a quarterback who has won 50 games in his last five years still has to answer questions about whether he’s a capable NFL starter, but Smith’s playoff failings haven’t gone away. Washington has brought him in and given him an extension, happy to take a chance on him. For all the talk, Smith is outstandingly efficient and makes the most of what he has, hitting 4,000 yards for the first time in his career in 2018. It will be interesting to see how he handles the Washington offense.
