NFL preseason predictions are a tricky business. If back in August you proclaimed, "Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills are going to be contenders," well, so did everyone else. Conversely, if you speculated the Jacksonville Jaguars were going to make the postseason in the wake of the Urban Meyer debacle, you risked sounding ridiculous.
The same conundrum applies to players. If you convinced yourself Zach Wilson's "got that dog in him" or Russell Wilson's arrival would ensure a Denver Broncos' resurgence, you were probably punching air by Week 11.
