On Tuesday, I broke down the four NFL teams I expect to improve in 2023. That's the fun piece. This column is the one that doesn't go over quite as well. Time to break down the four teams most likely to decline. Given that the preseason is the most optimistic time of the year for most franchises before reality sets in after Week 1, you can imagine what the replies typically look like.
The results here are hard to ignore, however. Using many quantitative metrics to lead the way, I've named 30 teams in this column over the past six years.
