Never thought it would be us, but...

the 10 straight years of worst-to-first:

2003: Carolina Panthers (7-9)/Kansas City Chiefs (8-8)
2004: Atlanta Falcons (5-11)/San Diego Chargers (4-12)
2005: Chicago Bears (5-11)/New York Giants (6-10)
2006: Philadelphia Eagles (6-10)/New Orleans Saints (3-13)/Baltimore Ravens (6-10)
2007: Tampa Bay Buccaneers (4-12)
2008: Miami Dolphins (1-15)
2009: New Orleans Saints (8-8)
2010: Kansas City Chiefs (4-12)
2011: Houston Texans (6-10)
2012: Washington Redskins (5-11)

It’s much too early to make guesses for next year, given free agency and the draft and coaching/GM changes. But the last place teams:

* Bills/Jets
* Browns
* Jaguars
* Chiefs
* Eagles
* Lions
* Panthers/Saints/Bucs
* Cardinals

There are eight months to get your predictions ready, but the guess here is the Browns, Chiefs, Eagles, Lions and Saints will be the most popular picks, with New Orleans – thanks to the return of Sean Payton – the overwhelming choice.
