What Is The Worst Team In The NFL Right Now?
Contents
The NFL season is well underway and there are already a few teams that seem to be struggling. But which team is the worst in the league right now? Let’s take a look at a few contenders.
The Cleveland Browns
The Cleveland Browns have not had a winning season since 2007. They have had double digit losses in each of the last six seasons. They have not won more than five games in a season since 2007. They have not made the playoffs since 2002.
Their recent record
The Cleveland Browns are an American football team in the National Football League (NFL). The Browns compete in the NFL as a member club of the American Football Conference (AFC) North division. They are headquartered in Berea, Ohio, and play their home games at FirstEnergy Stadium, which opened in 1999 and is located in Cleveland’s downtown area. The Browns’ official colors are brown, orange, and white. They are unique among the 32 member franchises of the NFL in that they do not have a logo on their helmets.
The Browns were founded in 1945 by businessman Arthur B. McBride and coach Paul Brown as a charter member of the All-America Football Conference (AAFC). The Browns dominated the AAFC, compiling a 47–4–3 record in the league’s four seasons and winning its championship in each. When the AAFC folded after the 1949 season, the Browns joined the NFL along with three other AAFC teams,the San Francisco 49ers ,the original Baltimore Colts ,andthe then-defunct Detroit Panthers .
The Browns began play in 1950 as part of an AFL-NFL merger and won their first championship two years later. They then appeared in another NBA Finals three years later, losing to the Green Bay Packers . After struggling unsuccessfully for many years following multiple coaching changes and general managers , they finally had moderate success with quarterback Bernie Kosar under head coach Marty Schottenheimer during much of the 1980s. However, they made it back to only one more AFC Championship Game under Bill Belichick during his first stint as their head coach from 1991 to 1995 . Since resuming operations after a three-year hiatus brought on by financial difficulties caused by bad owner Art Modell ‘s failed attempt to move them to Baltimore , they have been mostly competitive but have yet to return to even close to their previous glory days .
Their coaching staff
The Browns have had a revolving door of coaching staffs ever since they came back as an expansion team in 1999. In that time, they’ve had 16 different head coaches and four different general managers. They’ve only made the playoffs three times and have never won a playoff game. Right now, their head coach is Hue Jackson, who is 1-31 in his two seasons with the team.
The San Francisco 49ers
The San Francisco 49ers are the worst team in the NFL right now. They have a 1-10 record and are on a five-game losing streak. Their offense is ranked 32nd in the league and their defense is ranked 31st. They have been outscored by a combined score of 246-116.
Their recent record
The San Francisco 49ers are currently on a five-game losing streak, and they have not won a game since Week 8 of the NFL season. They are currently in last place in the NFC West division, and they have a record of 2-10. The 49ers have been plagued by injuries this season, and they have also had difficulty scoring points. Their defense has also been struggle, as they have allowed an average of 27.2 points per game.
Their coaching staff
In 2019, the San Francisco 49ers hired Kyle Shanahan as their new head coach. Shanahan was coming off a successful stint as the offensive coordinator of the Atlanta Falcons, where he helped lead them to a Super Bowl appearance. The 49ers were hoping that Shanahan could turn their franchise around, and they made some big changes to their coaching staff.
They brought in Robert Saleh as their new defensive coordinator. Saleh was previously the linebackers coach for the Seattle Seahawks, and he helped them create one of the best defenses in NFL history. The 49ers also hired MikeMcDermott as their new special teams coordinator. McDermott was coming off a successful run with the Buffalo Bills, where he helped them make the playoffs for the first time in 17 years.
The 49ers made these changes because they wanted to create a coaching staff that could help turn their franchise around. However, these changes have not worked out well for them. In fact, they have been disastrous.
The 49ers have gone 8-24 since hiring Shanahan as their head coach. They have also fired both Saleh and McDermott after just two seasons. These changes have not worked out well for the 49ers, and they are now considered to be one of the worst teams in the NFL.
The New York Jets
Their recent record
The Jets have been one of the worst teams in the NFL over the past few years. They have a record of 4-12 over the past two seasons, and they have not made the playoffs since 2010. Their recent record is not the only reason why they are considered to be the worst team in the NFL right now.
Their coaching staff
Of all the coaching staffs in the NFL, the Jets’ is by far the worst. They have no offensive coordinator, and their head coach, Adam Gase, is known for being a micromanager who doesn’t delegate well. On top of that, they have a Defensive Coordinator, Gregg Williams, who was suspended from the NFL for his role in the Saints’ bounty scandal.
