Worst team in the NFL 2008
We are only a few weeks away from the exciting Super Bowl, and we seem to be recapping on what was this current NFL season: who should play during the Super Bowl on February 1st? Who was the best NFL player of the season? Who was the worst team? For this one there no reason on waiting for the NFL season to be over:
Readers have been clear on their thoughts on which of the NFL teams had the worst game and this article is about who the readers believe was the worst NFL team during this football season.
The first runner up is sadly, the team with the best NFL cheerleaders: the very well known Dallas Cowboys, I wonder if maybe they get distracted with the hotties or something. Fans blame it on the coaches, even though Wade Philips is a great defensive coach the rest of the staff is definitely not doing its job.
Second runner up: The Kansas City Chiefs, I have to admit I was a little bit surprised with this one, until I thought it out deeply: In the NFL there is no room for mediocre people and it seems that this team is completely unmotivated; this was definitely not a good NFL season for the Chiefs at all.
Now, the team our readers have decided is the worst NFL team of the current football season is by far the Detroit Lions: They did not win a single game during the 2008 football season; week after week they delivered a poor game turning into a NFL record break where 0-16 loss, which has never happened before: Go Lions!!!
If you have anything to add, please be my guest and comment along…NFL season is almost over and now is the time to hear what fans have to say. My guess, no Detroit Lions fans will show up…

All through out August most NFL teams were congregating to conduct the normal NFL training camps, although some teams do have Off Season Training sessions, most of the teams start theirs a few week before the NFL season starts. This is also a common practice among MLB teams. The off season sessions are held during the months of April, May, and June; also, new players to the NFL from mid-June to mid-July attend seminars and lectures by the NFL, all of these activities help new players and coaches to acclimate themselves to new teammates, and regular NFL players get a chance to practice and improve their game.
Off season trainings however, have been discussed since there have been complications in the past; NFL Training camps starting in late-July have proved to be dangerous since they are conducted in the middle of the summer and have caused several cases of dehydration. For example, in 2001, Minnesota Vikings player Korey Stringer died from medical condition based from dehydration and heatstroke, this situation prompted the NFL to change their training policies. The hot temperatures of the summer not only affect practices and performance but also NFL exhibition games.
It is known that heat-related illnesses are caused when an individual is subjected to extreme temperatures and humidity, and is unable to cool down. The NFL organization has been giving advice to coaches to prevent health issues among players such as allow 10-14 days for adjusting to warmer climate/temperatures, schedule practice during cooler times of day and schedule and enforce frequent drink breaks and rest periods during training camps. The NFL has also requested coaches to monitor high risk players: those with a prior history of heat illness, overweight or obese players, those with a medical history of gastrointestinal, diabetic, kidney, or heart problems; they have also recommended these NFL players wear net-type jerseys, avoid sweatshirts and remove helmets unless they are playing.
As we know, this NFL season all recommendations were followed and no further issues come up before the games. The 2008 NFL Season is the 89th season of the National Football League and the respective Super Bowl is expected to be played at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida on February 1, 2009.

NFL moves during the off season
There have been quite a few changes for the NFL during the past off season. Some players have accepted deals with different NFL teams and this will definitely set a difference on the upcoming NFL season. These are some of the changes we will be enjoying this coming season:

You know you’re a true NFL football fan when….
- You know by heart the name of all 32 NFL football teams, but you just can’t remember that 6th continent that started with an “A”…
- You must have jersey. This is just basic stuff. If you don’t even have a jersey let’s just forget this right away.
- You’re 2 months late with all college assignments because you spend all your free time discussing the NFL draft or the price on NFL tickets on all forums and checking every hr. just to make sure there are no new videos or heated debates about NFL football in which you obviously need to step in.
- You have read, debated and analyzed every overview outline or news concerning the 2008-2009 NFL football game regular season, and if available, the NFL post season and NFL pre-season too. Of course you already made your predictions on what the NFL teams they may do this year.
- You actually reach your post number 5,000 in a NFL game sports forum. In the process you’ve lost your wife, kids, mortgage, career and and gained close to 50 lbs. but, you definitely are the ultimate NFL football fan.
- You feel guilt and remorse when you admire the career of a sports athlete and you wish you could wear his NFL jersey but this player doesn’t belong to the team you support and so you keep this a secret. (Admit it, you love Brett Favre, but you just can’t come to terms with it)
- Whenever you’re anxiously waiting to know NFL games scores you actually get a lump in your throat and all other sorts of physical reactions you’re supposed to get only when you hold your first born son in your arms.
- You get sucked into buying all NFL original merchandise because “If you’re a true NFL football fan you MUST have one of these”. Pure peer pressure, shame on you.
- You have a YouTube video in which you simply scream like crazy or rant against a an NFL score, NBA schedule decision or an NFL football team in particular. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVWuQLz3eSE
- The sports bar has a chair, with your name on it (and the shape of your buttocks)
- You know meaningless statistics like the fact that NFL fans are 37% more likely than the average American to have gambled online in the last 30 days.
- You diagnose your favorite NFL season football player’s injuries and follow up their recovery strictly and surprisingly, you now have a sudden knowledge of physical therapy and sports medicine.
- You are in an office pool (brownie points if you came up with the idea and you keep the NFL game schedule) and watch EVERY game there could possibly be on Sunday.
- Like an NFL team, (minus the gigantic paychecks), you spend your week analyzing the best strategy to keep positive and feel like a winner on Sunday night.
- You probably own a life size vinyl fathead of his favorite NFL football player(s) at home. Yes, maybe even in the living room. It is called showing your pride.
- You have a a fan face: whether you opt for a rubber mask or you prefer to spend hours in the mirror artistically adorning your NFL-football-loving-self using your kids finger paints’ there is nothing that says “I will kill for my team” than a colored fan face. If you do not choose the right paint you might still have a hint of that blue and white look when you get to the office on Monday but at least no rival will dare to mess with your fan face on NFL football Sunday.
