We can sit here and tell you how many games we think each NFL team will win, but the truth is, that randomness would — in at least a few instances — make us look like fools. Injuries happen. Key players significantly improve or see their play start to deteriorate. Talented teams fall victim to poor coaching and dysfunction. All that goes to show that there is a range of outcomes when talking about projections. The current environment and uncertainty surrounding the 2020 season adds more fuel to the fire.
With the help of recent season simulations carried out by PFF’s research and development team, this article is an attempt to capture some of that range with high (90th percentile) and low end (10th percentile) win projections for every NFL team along with some narration on how they might reach that point.
