NFL training camps get going in a little over four weeks for most NFL teams, and that means we have a little bit of down time remaining. With some time to play around, Pro Football Focus decided to put together their first set of record projections for 2017. They don’t really explain their process in great detail, but it says they project the quality of each team and then use those projections to predict the outcome of all 256 regular season games.
Whatever the process, it is not surprising they have the San Francisco 49ers projected near the bottom of the league.
