7. Cincinnati Bengals
One thing we need to note about the Cincinnati Bengals is that this offensive line truly played some nice football down the stretch, and I think we're now at a point with the Bengals where the offensive line doesn't appear to be a major weakness. Even if it's an average unit, that's perfectly OK and better than what Joe Burrow has had in previous seasons.
The running back and wide receiver rooms combined are quite good, as Chase Brown is an ascending player with dual-threat ability, and there might not be a better receiver duo in the NFL right now than Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins, both of whom are still in the prime of their careers.
Having Burrow at QB does help, but Cincy's offensive talent is among the best in the NFL and should again be a strength in the 2026 season.
6. Atlanta Falcons
The Atlanta Falcons are No. 6 in our rankings despite having a bottom-10 QB room with Tua Tagovailoa and Michael Penix Jr. You really can't get much better than Kyle Pitts, Drake London, ands Bijan Robinson. All three players are 'alphas' at their respective positions. The offensive line is also quite good. Despite the shocking retirement of right tackle Kaleb McGary, Jawaan Taylor is a fine option and should hold his own.
The Falcons really have a lot of potential on offense. It probably is a stretch to think that Tagovailoa could be at least average for them in the 2026 season, but that's all it's going to take for this team to win the NFC South.
Robinson might be the best offensive weapon in the league, London is a top-10 receiver, and Pitts' receiving upside and profile at the TE position is borderline generational. The Falcons might not be very good this year, but the offense is oozing with talent.
