The 2024 NFL offseason has seen several teams make decisions that are already proving detrimental. The New York Jets' firing of Robert Saleh reflects a realization of past mistakes, as his tenure yielded an 18-33 record.
Meanwhile, the Cincinnati Bengals' delay in re-signing Ja'Marr Chase could lead to a costly contract as his performance continues to rise. The Cleveland Browns, struggling offensively after replacing Alex Van Pelt with Ken Dorsey, have seen quarterback Deshaun Watson's play worsen.
The Dallas Cowboys' reluctance to invest in a top-tier running back has left them with a weak rushing attack, while the Las Vegas Raiders' decision to rely on Gardner Minshew has backfired as they lack a clear quarterback of the future. The Miami Dolphins' choice to forgo a veteran backup for Tua Tagovailoa is proving risky, especially with his injury history.
Additionally, the New England Patriots' minimal investment in their offense has resulted in disastrous outcomes, while the Jets' hope that a healthy Aaron Rodgers would solve all problems has not materialized. Finally, the Philadelphia Eagles' trade of Haason Reddick has left their defense struggling to replicate past success.
