NFL Teams With the Best Offenses Going Into the 2018 Season
Of course, offense is vital for team success. If defense wins championships, then what gets them there? The offense of course. In today’s league, you need a good quarterback and some reliable receivers, a steady runner, and a strong offensive line to have a great offense. But some teams have better than average offenses. Ones that are very promising, and can help a team really make it to the big game. We’re looking at the top ten NFL teams with the best offenses going into the 2018 season.
The Philadelphia Eagles are a professional football franchise based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The Eagles compete in the National Football League as a member club of the league's National Football Conference East division. Notable Players: Carson Wentz, Nick Foles, Jay Ajayi, Corey Clement, Lane Johnson, Zach Ertz, Alshon Jeffery, Jason Kelce, Jason Peters, Nelson Agholor.
Wow, that many notable players. It tells you how well set the Eagles are with their offense. I mean, who even has a Super Bowl MVP for a backup quarterback? Also, reliable weapons at wide receiver and tight end. Not only that, one of the top ten offensive lines in the NFL currently. With Carson Wentz coming back, anything can happen.
The Pittsburgh Steelers are a professional American football team based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, that competes in the National Football League.
Pittsburgh Steelers have won the most Super Bowls with 6 which currently stands today. Notable Players: Ben Roethlisberger, Antonio Brown, Le'Veon Bell, Ju Ju Smith-Schuster, Maurkice Pouncey, James Washington, Jesse James, David DeCastro, Alejandro Villanueva.
Perhaps I underestimated Pittsburgh's offense, with an aging Big Ben and a reluctant running back. Still, Ben can play, and he has the best wide receiver in the NFL, Antonio Brown, as his favorite target. He also gets Ju Ju and impressive rookie James Washington. And to make way for Le'Veon Bell, enter their key offensive line. Maybe they can make a playoff run after all.
The Los Angeles Rams are a professional American football team based in the Los Angeles metropolitan area. Notable Players: Jared Goff, Todd Gurley, Robert Woods, Cooper Cupp, Brandin Cooks, Pharoh Cooper, Andrew Whitworth.
The Rams are vying for another playoff run this year, after a disappointing wild card loss. They can do it with Todd Gurley. He practically carries the offense, more so than Goff, who is still vital in the passing game.
The New Orleans Saints are a professional American football team based in New Orleans, Louisiana. The Saints currently compete in the National Football League as a member club of the league's National Football Conference South division. Notable Players: Drew Brees, Michael Thomas, Alvin Kamara, Mark Ingram, Ryan Ramszyk, Max Unger, Ted Ginn.
This Saints offense is nearly the same as last year, and it's looking firey. Drew Brees is as sharp as always with two reliable backfielders. Not to mention a steady offensive line with the anchor being Max Unger. They have the tools to make it farther in the playoffs this year.
The Green Bay Packers are a professional American football team based in Green Bay, Wisconsin. The Packers compete in the National Football League as a member club of the league's National Football Conference North division.
The Packers have won 4 Super Bowls and 13 NFL championships. Notable Players: Aaron Rodgers, Davante Adams, Randall Cobb, Jimmy Graham, Marcedes Lewis, David Bakhtiari, Corey Linsley, Bryan Bulaga.
Looking to get back on track after a 2017 season marred by injury, Green Bay has their offense pretty much healthy. When Rodgers is around, anything can happen. In addition to Adams and Cobb, Rodgers has a huge target in Graham, and a good blocker in Lewis. The starting offensive linemen also look strong for 2018. Good signs for this team, but needs a good defense.
The Atlanta Falcons are a professional American football team based in Atlanta, Georgia. The Falcons compete in the National Football League as a member club of the league's National Football Conference South division. Notable Players: Matt Ryan, Julio Jones, Mohammad Sanu, Alex Mack, Jordan Matthews, Devonta Freeman, Tevin Coleman.
Atlanta isn't looking too bad this season on offense. It's all up to Ryan and Jones to hold the offense together, with Freeman and Coleman helping out here and there.
The Minnesota Vikings are an American football team based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The Vikings joined the National Football League as an expansion team in 1960, and first took the field for the 1961 season. Notable Players: Kirk Cousins, Stefon Diggs, Adam Thielen, Dalvin Cook, Latavius Murray, Pat Elflein, Kyle Rudolph.
Cousins will be an upgrade over what Case Keenum did last season. Tall order, but Cousins can do it with reliable receivers Diggs and Thielen. While Dalvin Cook is being severely overhyped, he will provide the Vikings with a run game they haven't truly had since Adrian Peterson.
The New England Patriots are a professional American football team based in the Greater Boston region.
New England Patriots are one of the few teams to have 5+ wins in the Super Bowl. Notable Players: Tom Brady, Julian Edelman, Chris Hogan, Sony Michael, Rob Gronkowski, James White.
Definitely not looking as potent as in recent years, they're still a pretty dang good offense. As long as Tom Brady is their quarterback, they will.
The New York Giants are a professional American football team located in the New York metropolitan area. Notable Players: Eli Manning, Odell Beckham Jr, Sterling Shepherd, Evan Engram, Saquon Barkley, Jonathan Stewart, Nate Solder.
After an awful 3-13 2017 season, I see New York resurging in some way. And it'll start with their offense. Manning has three good targets plus a high end rookie running back and a veteran of over a decade. Plus, Nate Solder. Things will look a lot different on the Giants offense in 2018.
The Las Vegas Raiders are a professional American football franchise based in Las Vegas. The Raiders began playing in 1960 as a member club of the American Football League; they have been a member club of the National Football League since the 1970 AFL–NFL merger... read more Notable Players: Derek Carr, Amari Cooper, Jordy Nelson, Martavius Bryant, Marshawn Lynch, Doug Martin, Donald Penn.
My question is, "can Oakland revert back to 2016 form? " Well, maybe not right away, but they have the talent to do so. Carr can come back with three reliable receivers and two veteran backs. We'll see come week 1.
The Chicago Bears are a professional American football team in Chicago, Illinois. The Bears compete in the National Football League as a member club of the league's National Football Conference North division. Notable Players: Mitchell Trubisky, Jordan Howard, Anthony Miller, Allen Robinson, Trey Burton, Tarik Cohen, Kyle Long, Cody Whitehair.
Chicago has a sleeper written offense, and a new head coach to boot who could prove to be a step up retooling a poor offense from the last two years to being an improved squad this year.
The Kansas City Chiefs are a professional American football team based in Kansas City, Missouri. The Chiefs compete in the National Football League as a member club of the league's American Football Conference West division. They have some weapons including Tyreek Hill, Sammy Watkins, Travis Kelce, Kareem Hunt,Spencer Ware and Chris Conley. The only catch is Patrick Mahomes. It all depends on how well he performs. I'm expecting some consistency issues for young Patrick Mahomes especially early on. But these weapons could still produce when Mahomes hits them right on
The Los Angeles Chargers are a professional American football team based in Los Angeles. The Chargers compete in the National Football League as a member club of the league's American Football Conference West division. Notable Players: Phillip Rivers, Melvin Gordon, Austin Ekeler, Keenan Allen, Tyrell Williams, Mike Williams, Travis Benjamin, Mike Pouncey, Russell Okung, Forrest Lamp.
Even with the loss of Hunter Henry don't be surprised if Rivers gunslingers that ball to his four horseman wide receivers. The only one I'd be concerned if he doesn't improved in this hyped up offense is Mike Williams, but other than that this should be an exciting offense to watch overall.
The Cleveland Browns are a professional American football team based in Cleveland, Ohio. The Browns compete in the National Football League as a member team of the American Football Conference North division... read more Notable Players: Tyrod Taylor, Nick Chubb, Jarvis Landry, David Njoku, Josh Gordon, Kevin Zeitler, Joel Bitonio.
The Browns have built a very interesting group of guys who give them quite the number of wins. Will they be a surprise playoff contender absolutely not, but if Hue Jackson can get around 8 wins I would be stunned too. Now he has no excuse on offense what he has around him could be a sneaky good offense as long as protection is either healthy or holds up right.
