Teams that have taken over the NFL spotlight — talented, relentless, and impossible to ignore. Fans aren’t asking if they’ll win, they’re just waiting for the day the run ends so they can finally breathe again.

The lurkers circling beneath the surface. They’re not the headline predators, but the second you slip, they’ll be there to take a bite out of your season.

Flawed to the bone, but not dead yet. They’ve got just enough firepower — usually under center — to stagger forward and steal something they probably shouldn’t.

Hope is undefeated in August. These teams have their franchise savior under center, fresh draft hype in the air, and a fanbase daring to believe — at least until reality shows up.

The basement. The teams destined for the dungeon, where the season is about survival, draft boards, and whether the lights stay on long enough to make it to Week 18.
