We're at the 7-8 games played mark of the season...

Who do you think is the most disappointing team so far this year?

Chiefs? Chargers? Lions? Cowboys? Eagles?Bengals? Saints? (I'm not a fan of putting them in there,but I can see someone saying it)

Who do you think has the best chance of salvaging their season?

I don't see why anyone would have thought the Saints would have a good year based on their offseason, but I keep hearing people say them. While it is not a disappointment to me, people really expected more out of the Bills & their defense this year.

Who has the best chance of salvaging their season- the Packers seem to have righted their ship.

Jets, I am disappointed that they are not 0-8.   Grin

At the start of the season, Fox and CBS had the Saints ranked #9.  ESPN had them ranked #11.  (link)  NFL.com had them ranked 6th.  Average rank: 8.75

NO is 2-5 with losses to WSH, CAR, and KC.  That's a major disappointment from what was expected to be a top-10 team.

I don't doubt people were high on them, I don't see why. I didn't expect much of anything from them this year.

Well, they did go 13-3 last year as their QB set a record for most passing yards in a season.  So there is that.

And they are also missing their head coach and their interim head coach and dealing with a ton of issues.

I'd have to say the Lions. I really thought they were going to be one of the elite teams in the league.

Chargers.  It's only a matter of time before Norv gets fired.

'72 - The Perfect Season

So many teams with high expectations have been a been disappointing.

I thought the Eagles would finally right the ship - wrong
I thought Dallas might finally put it together - wrong
I thought the Lions would finally be dominate - wrong

The biggest surprise to me has been the Carolina Panthers.  With the Saints down, I expected them to build on last year and challenge the Falcons for the NFC South.   Last year, many of their losses were close, and they finished the season strong.  I didn't see them regressing like this.

Right, which was why they were ranked around #10, instead of a top 5 team like they finished in 2011.

Saints.

Not sure how you can say the Saints after all the suspensions they had from the offseason. No HC and loss of players and the OC. No surprise they have struggled. What did you expect? Brees cannot do it all.

It is either the Chiefs or Lions for me. Take your pick.

Why not? He did it last year. I didn't think they'd have a great season but I didn't think they would be this bad at the start of the season.
