As the NFL offseason drags on, predictions for the 2025-26 calendar year are already stirring excitement. The upcoming season is projected to see the Buffalo Bills lead the AFC East with a strong 14-3 record, while the Cincinnati Bengals are expected to dominate the AFC North at 12-5. The New England Patriots are poised for a competitive 10-7 season, with hopes for a playoff run. Meanwhile, significant trades are anticipated, including Courtland Sutton moving to the Pittsburgh Steelers and Kirk Cousins joining the Indianapolis Colts, both of which could reshape their respective offenses.

Award predictions are also making waves, with Jordan Love of the Green Bay Packers projected to snag the MVP title, supported by a healthy season and new offensive talent. Ja'Marr Chase is favored for Offensive Player of the Year after his incredible performance in 2024, while Will Anderson Jr. of the Texans is a strong candidate for Defensive Player of the Year following his breakout year.
