We're inching closer and closer to the start of the 2026 NFL Season, and with that comes building excitement. Now that the preseason is well underway, teams are certainly looking at their schedules at the Week 1 opponent. While there are still some preseason games that need to happen, the regular season is really where the fun begins.
Throughout the offseason, we have taken a ton of unique angles with our NFL power rankings, and have also dove quite deep into various predictions. We'e now approaching the point of the offseason where it's time to revisit some of the major predictions and rankings.
So, let's dive into some fresh record predictions for all 32 teams as the regular season approaches.
Predicting every team's record as the 2026 NFL Season rapidly approaches
AFC North
Baltimore Ravens: 11-6
The Baltimore Ravens should be able to win a ton of games this year as long as they aren't horribly banged up to begin the season, which contributed to the team's 1-5 start in 2025. Baltimore has won the AFC North recently as well and should simply be able to take care of business.
Cincinnati Bengals: 11-6
With a revamped defense, the Cincinnati Bengals should be able to break this three-year playoff drought streak in the 2026 season, and it feels like there is a lot on the line for this franchise this year.
Pittsburgh Steelers: 7-10
I am not sure I can get excited about a team with a 42-year-old regressing quarterback and a team where many of their best players are on the wrong side of 30. Pittsburgh is due for a losing season.
Cleveland Browns: 4-13
With a horrendous quarterback room, the Cleveland Browns won't win many games no matter who else on the roster plays well. In this league, it nearly starts and ends with the QB position.
