Who Has The Worst Record In The NFL in 2022?
The NFL is full of parity these days, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t still a few bad teams. Here’s a look at who has the worst record in the NFL in 2022.
The Cleveland Browns
The Cleveland Browns have the worst record in the NFL in 2022. They have a record of 1-15.
The Browns have not had a winning season since 2007
The Browns have not had a winning season since 2007, when they finished 10-6. They have not made the playoffs since 2002, when they lost to the Pittsburgh Steelers in the AFC Wild Card game. Since then, the Browns have had seven head coaches and only two winning seasons (in 2007 and 2008). In 2017, the Browns went 0-16, becoming the second team in NFL history to finish a season winless.
The Browns have been plagued by poor personnel decisions, bad coaching, and a lack of stability at the quarterback position. In 2016, they drafted Quarterback Johnny Manziel with the hope that he would be their franchise quarterback. However, Manziel was a bust and was out of the NFL after just two seasons. The Browns then drafted Quarterback Baker Mayfield with the first overall pick in 2018. Mayfield has shown promise, but the Browns have yet to put together a winning season with him under center.
In 2020, the Browns fired head coach Freddie Kitchens after just one season and hired Kevin Stefanski as his replacement. Stefanski led the Browns to their first playoff berth since 2002 and their first winning season since 2007. However, they lost to the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC Divisional Round.
The Browns are hoping that 2021 is finally their year as they look to end their 18-year playoff drought and win their first Super Bowl championship.
They have had double digit losses in 9 out of the last 10 seasons
The Cleveland Browns are a professional American football team based in Cleveland, Ohio. The Browns compete in the National Football League (NFL) as a member club of the American Football Conference (AFC) North division. Since 1999, the Browns have played their home games at FirstEnergy Stadium, which opened in 1999 as Cleveland Browns Stadium and is located on the shore of Lake Erie in downtown Cleveland. 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 and are the only team named after a specific person, original coach Paul Brown.
The franchise was 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 of them. 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, and the Pittsburgh Steelers.
The Browns struggled to find success in their early years in the NFL, failing to qualify for the playoffs in their first 13 seasons despite having some of the best teams in those years. They did not win their first championship until 1964 when they won another AAFC title following a 14-game regular season. The Browns appear led by head coach Hue Jackson 5–11 record during 2 years but were unable to find success similar to that of their earlier years during his tenure.
They have had the first overall pick in the NFL Draft four times in the last 10 years
The Cleveland Browns are one of the most storied franchises in NFL history. They have been to the playoffs over 30 times and have won 8 NFL championships, including 4 Super Bowls. However, they have struggled in recent years, compiling a record of just 27-53 since 2016. Thispoor record has led to the Browns having the first overall pick in the NFL Draft four times in the last 10 years.
The Browns’ poor record is due to a number of factors, including bad coaching and player personnel decisions. In recent years, the Browns have been especially bad at drafting quarterbacks, passing on players like Dak Prescott and Carson Wentz in favor of players like Johnny Manziel and DeShone Kizer. As a result, the Browns have had one of the worst offenses in the NFL in recent years, ranking near the bottom of the league in points scored.
The Browns’ struggles culminated in a 0-16 record in 2017, becoming just the second team in NFL history to go winless in a 16-game season. The team’s poor play has led to calls for them to be “blown up” and start over from scratch. However, with some young talent on both sides of the ball, there is hope that the Browns can turn things around and become a winning franchise again.
The Detroit Lions
The Detroit Lions have been the worst team in the NFL for the past few years. In 2020, they went 0-16. In 2021, they went 1-15. And in 2022, they are currently 0-14. They have never made the playoffs since they last won the Super Bowl in 1957.
The Lions have not had a winning season since 2016
The Lions have not had a winning season since 2016, when they went 9-7 and made the playoffs. They have not won a playoff game since 1991. In the six seasons since 2016, they have gone 4-12, 6-10, 9-7, 5-11, 3-13 and 6-10. The only team with a worse record over that span is the Cleveland Browns.
They have had double digit losses in 3 out of the last 4 seasons
The Detroit Lions are a professional American football team based in Detroit, Michigan. They compete in the National Football League (NFL) as a member club of the league’s National Football Conference (NFC) North division. The team plays its home games at Ford Field in Downtown Detroit.

They have had the third overall pick in the NFL Draft three times in the last 10 years
The Detroit Lions have been one of the NFL’s most disappointing teams over the past decade. They have had the third overall pick in the NFL Draft three times in the last 10 years, and they have only made the playoffs once since their last appearance in the Super Bowl in 1957. In 2022, they will once again have a top-five pick, as they are expected to finish with one of the worst records in the league.
The New York Jets
