The Pittsburgh Steelers went 8-8 during the 2019 season and it is probably the most impressive 8-8 record I’ve ever seen, I’m not kidding. This team was crippled by the quarterback play of Devlin Hodges and Mason Rudolph. The defense dragged this team to eight wins by forcing turnovers and scoring points. It was seriously impressive and if this defense can do the same for Ben Roethlisberger, I see no reason why this team can’t return the playoffs.

Since Mike Mayock and Jon Gruden have been with the Raiders, the team has undergone a massive change. Gruden and Mayock have brought in hard-working players with limited off the field issues, except for the Antonio Brown’s fiasco. The two have started to completely remake the defense that was in shambles upon their arrival and has added weapons around Derek Carr… or Marcus Mariota?

The 2019 season didn’t end well for the New England Patriots. With their week 17 loss to the Miami Dolphins, the Patriots were forced to play on Wild Card Weekend against the red hot Tennessee Titans. Tom Brady threw a game sealing pick-six in the final minute which ended their season. Fast forward a few months and we learned it will be the final play of Brady’s career in New England. Brady signed with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the offseason, leaving former fourth-round pick Jarrett Stidham and career journeyman Brian Hoyer to battle it out for the starting quarterback role. Despite so much unknown in New England, I’ll still take a shot at predicting the Patriots’ team award winners for this season.
