The offseason is picking up speed and with there being a painful window until the NFL season restarts, this gives people time to debate.

All of us will have to sit tight and enjoy the roller-coaster for trading and free agency until the Kansas City Chiefs’ opening day kick-off.

However, for now, the teams are building and making the appropriate additions and cuts to their rosters.

The battle for Super Bowl LIX

Franchises are vying for a shot at winning Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans.

It is all good to dream about the chance but in reality, it is a tough process.

The Chiefs will be entering the season riding on the motivation to become the first team to win three successive Super Bowls.

The illustrious ‘three-peat’ is on the cards.

But multiple teams will be hedging their bets they can knock Kansas off their throne.

Moreover, the San Francisco 49ers will be desperate to avenge their Super Bowl LVIII defeat.

Lamar Jackson wants his first taste of the Super Bowl with his Baltimore Ravens unit.

Joe Burrow returns healthy in 2024 and seems to be Patrick Mahomes’ bogey team.

But could a dark horse be throwing their hat into the ring?

Watch out for the Browns

2018 Super Bowl winner Jason McCourty suggested that there certainly is one to watch out for.

The Cleveland Browns are a threat McCourty said on Good Morning Football: “I’m gonna talk about the Cleveland Browns, for the second straight year we talk about what their potential is.

“This offseason they go make a trade for Jerry Jeudy to be opposite Amari Cooper.

“Now they have Elijah Moore in the slot, Nick Chubb can hopefully get back to where he was but Jerome Ford as a backup showed what he could do.

“So I look at this team in Cleveland and Jim Schwartz comes in as the defensive coordinator last year, Myles Garrett becomes defensive player of the year.

“To me the Cleveland Browns could surprise a few people and potentially say, ‘hey we have a seat at the table we could get healthy’ and get on the right track.”

Cannot afford a slow start

Many teams will fancy their chances at reaching the pinnacle of the NFL.

Ultimately, beating the Chiefs and stopping their historic feat would make the victory much sweeter.

The Chiefs will have to produce their A game from the opening kick-off next year.

There can be no missed cues on offense as teams will be ready to pounce if they smell weakness.
