Who Is The Worst NFL Team in 2021?
The NFL season is just around the corner and everyone is wondering who the worst team in the league will be. There are a few contenders for the title, but we think the worst team in 2021 will be the Jacksonville Jaguars.
The Cleveland Browns
There is no question that the Cleveland Browns are the worst team in the NFL. They have a lot of holes on their roster and they don’t seem to be getting any better. They have a new head coach, but it’s hard to see how he can turn things around.
They have the worst record in the NFL
The Cleveland Browns have the worst record in the NFL. They are 0-16.
They have had the first overall pick in the NFL Draft three times in the last five years
They have had the first overall pick in the NFL Draft three times in the last five years, and they have gone 1-15, 0-16, and 6-10 in those seasons. They are the only team in NFL history to have the first overall pick in back-to-back drafts, and they used those picks on quarterbacks who have both been busts.
They have fired their head coach five times in the last ten years
The 0-16 record in 2017 was an all-time low for the franchise, and led to the firing of their head coach, Hue Jackson. Since then, they have had three different head coaches, and have gone through four different general managers. In 2020, they fired their head coach Freddie Kitchens after just one season. Kitchens had been with the Browns for just one year, and was their fifth head coach in ten years.
The Browns have also been accused of being cheap by not spending enough money on free agents or draft picks. In 2016, they were ranked as the third cheapest team in the NFL. In 2018, they were ranked as the fifth cheapest team. In 2020, they were ranked as the seventh cheapest team.
The Browns are also known for making bad trades and draft picks. In 2012, they traded away running back Trent Richardson to the Indianapolis Colts for a first round draft pick. Richardson was a bust with the Colts and is now out of the NFL. The Browns also drafted quarterback Johnny Manziel in the first round of the 2014 NFL Draft. Manziel was a bust with the Browns and is now out of the NFL.
The New York Jets
It is safe to say that the New York Jets are the worst NFL team in 2021. They have a 0-13 record and have been outscored by their opponents by a combined total of 489 points. They have the worst offense in the NFL, averaging just 13.1 points per game. They also have the worst defense, giving up an average of 36.4 points per game.
They have the second worst record in the NFL
The Jets have the second worst record in the NFL. They have not made the playoffs since 2010, and they have not had a winning season since 2015. The Jets are a laughingstock of the NFL, and there is no end in sight to their struggles.
They have had the first overall pick in the NFL Draft twice in the last five years
The New York Jets are a professional American football team based in the New York metropolitan area. The Jets compete in the National Football League (NFL) as a member club of the league’s American Football Conference (AFC) East division. The team is headquartered in Florham Park, New Jersey. In a unique arrangement for the league, the Jets share MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey with the New York Giants. The franchise is legally and corporately registered as New York Jets, LLC.
The team was founded in 1959 as the Titans of New York, an original member of the American Football League (AFL); later, the franchise joined the NFL in the AFL–NFL merger in 1970. The team began to play at Shea Stadium in 1964 and continued to play their home games at MetLife Stadium from 1984 to 2020; they will return to playing at Shea Stadium for at least two seasons starting in 2021 while MetLife Stadium undergoes renovation. The Jets advanced to their first AFL Championship Game appearance in 1968 and went on to compete in Super Bowl III where they defeated the Baltimore Colts, becoming the first AFL team to defeat an NFL club in an AFL–NFL World Championship Game. Since 1968, the Jets have appeared in ten AFC Championship Games (most recently during 2010), and have captured eight division championships (most recently during 2015). However, they have never returned to the Super Bowl since defeated by Pittsburgh Steelers 16–7 during Super Bowl VIII and have never won a conference championship since Frank Gifford took over as head coach during week 11 of 1972.
They have fired their head coach three times in the last ten years
Since Adam Gase was hired as the Jets’ head coach in 2019, the team has gone 10-22. They have also fired their head coach three times in the last ten years. In 2021, they are widely considered to be the worst NFL team.
The Buffalo Bills
The Buffalo Bills are the worst team in the NFL in 2021. They have a terrible quarterback, no good wide receivers, and their offensive line is a mess. Their defense is not good either. They are a terrible team and will likely not make the playoffs.
They have the third worst record in the NFL
The Bills have not made the playoffs since the 1999 season, when they lost the AFC Championship game to the Tennessee Titans. They hold the record for the longest active playoff drought in any of the four major North American professional sports leagues. The Bills have also never won a Super Bowl, despite appearing in four straight Super Bowls from 1991 to 1994, all of which they lost.
They have had the first overall pick in the NFL Draft once in the last five years
The Buffalo Bills are a professional American football team based in the Buffalo–Niagara Falls metropolitan area. The Bills compete in the National Football League (NFL), as a member club of the league’s American Football Conference (AFC) East division. The team plays their home games at New Era Field in Orchard Park, New York. The Bills are the only NFL team that plays their home games in the state of New York.
The Bills began play as an original franchise of the American Football League (AFL) in 1960. They joined the NFL as part of the AFL–NFL merger in 1970, and then played in 15 straight Super Bowls from 1991 to 2005 as members of the AFC. The team has yet to make an appearance in a Super Bowl since then, and are currently on a conference championship drought of 32 years. They have won only two conference championships (both via AFC), both coming as AFC East champions which they have achieved five times – in 1988 and 1999.
They have fired their head coach twice in the last ten years
Since the turn of the century, the Buffalo Bills have been one of the most disappointing teams in the NFL. They have only made the playoffs twice and have not won a playoff game since 1995. They have fired their head coach twice in the last ten years and are currently on their third head coach in that time span.
The Jacksonville Jaguars
They have the fourth worst record in the NFL
The Jacksonville Jaguars have the fourth worst record in the NFL, and they are currently on a six-game losing streak. They have not won a game since Week 6, and they have only scored more than 20 points twice all season. Their offense is ranked 31st in the NFL in points per game, and their defense is ranked 27th. Their leading rusher is Leonard Fournette, who has only rushed for 644 yards and three touchdowns. They have not had a winning season since 2007, and they have not made the playoffs since 2017.
They have had the first overall pick in the NFL Draft three times in the last five years
In 2021, the Jaguars are widely considered to be the worst team in the NFL. They have had the first overall pick in the NFL Draft three times in the last five years, and they have failed to make the playoffs since 2007. The Jaguars have a talented roster on paper, but they have been unable to find success on the field. In 2020, they finished with a record of 1-15, and they fired head coach Doug Marrone after just two seasons.
They have fired their head coach four times in the last ten years
The Jacksonville Jaguars are a professional American football team based in Jacksonville, Florida. The Jaguars compete in the National Football League (NFL) as a member club of the American Football Conference (AFC) South division. They play their home games at TIAA Bank Field.
The Jaguars and the Carolina Panthers joined the NFL as expansion teams for the 1995 season. Since their inception, the Jaguars have won division championships in 1998 and 1999 (as members of the now-defunct AFC Central) and have qualified for the playoffs six times, most recently in 2017. The team has played in four AFC Championship Games, winning once in 1996 and losing three times, most recently to the New England Patriots in 2017. They have also never won a Super Bowl despite having reached it twice; one appearance was lost to the then-defending champion Green Bay Packers by 35 points, while their other appearance was lost to the New England Patriots by just four points after a miraculous fourth quarter comeback led by future Hall of Fame quarterback Tom Brady.
