Fear not, there are reinforcements on the way with the 2015 on the horizon.New England PatriotsThe champion making this list is a microcosm of why the winners of March/April means squat come snow season. The Pats lost a boatload of big-time starters. Top corners and are gone.

The might be an offseason "loser," but even if they struggle out of the gate as they reshape their identity, when the ball drops in NYC for the start of 2016 we expect them to be back at the top. -- Kevin PatraDenver BroncosThe still have one of the most talented rosters in the NFL, and should still be considered a favorite in the AFC. But their turnover on the coaching staff was followed by a lo s of talent on the roster. They just didn't replace the four quality starters walking out Bob Dandridge Jersey the door: Tight end , safety , guard and nose tackle . The best players they brought were guys like and .This remains the best team in the AFC West until proven otherwise, but they face many more questions than a season ago. -- Gregg RosenthalSan Francisco 49ersThe suffered a brain drain, leadership void and talent depletion in the span of two months.

This seems like an organization being pulled in two different directions; one by its football operations arm and the other by its marketing team. On one hand, the want to be splashy and exciting: ! New attitude! ! On the other hand, they seriously need to calm down and focus on the ma sive rebuild ahead of them. Signing is not going to make anyone better in the short term without the right bones in place. Of course, this goes back to some curious drafting decisions over the last two years, especially at quarterback, which also caused them to overpay for a 35-year-old .
