Last Season Don't Mean Anything!

Who will be making the playoffs?

Many people believe that it will be Carolina Panthers, New York Giants, Arizona Cardinals, or Atlanta Falcons. What about the other teams? You can't start counting teams out of the playoffs based on their previous season. In the season of 2007, the Dolphins had the worse season ever with a record of 1-15. They rebounded in the 2008 season to win 11 of their 16 games and clinch the playoff, despite not going to far in the playoffs.

In the 2008 season, the Detroit Lions lost all 16 of their games and added this record to their franchise. The whole team was embarrassed because of their record. In the off season, Lions tried to fix their problems in their offense by drafting Matthew Stafford, QB, out of Georgia Tech.

I think this year, Matthew Stafford will take the Lions far into the playoffs like Matt Ryan did with the Falcons last year.

Another team that's similar to the Lions but did a little better job than them was St. Louis Rams. They don't have alot of young players and I think that is affecting the team and how they perform.

Those two teams wouldn't surprise me if they were to make it to the playoffs. However, they would surprise me if they kept their same record as last year.
