Top 25 Team Turnarounds in NFL History! 

I like that they added a narrator to the video this time. It really enhanced the experience.

On the flip side, what are some of the all-time first to worst seasons?

I don't think you'll ever get a team like the 99 Rams: Decade-long losers, no-name QB, washed-out coach, played second-fiddle in their own city (Cardinals are the team in St. Louis), and still had the most improbable season in NFL history, outscoring the high-flying Vikings in a shootout, out-muscling the smash-mouth Buccaneers in a defensive stalemate, and out-enduring the tested Titans who had their own miraculous run: pulled off a miracle against the Bills, knocked off Peyton Manning in Indy, and beat the powerhouse Jaguars. I don't think you'll see anything like that team again, and I'm not even a Rams fan.

Wade Phillips has always been a defensive genius, the Broncos Chargers Bills Cowboys Broncos again and rams have all thrived under him

This just shows how big an impact coaching can have on a team

Lmao young Cris Collinsworth 😂😂😂😂 (6:25)

Didn’t anyone else realize it says top 10 team turnarounds when it’s really 25 😂😂

Moral of the story: If you want a big time turnaround, you need to hire Wade Phillips as your defensive coordinator.

Just went back and looked at some of the 2005 saints highlights so weird seeing them play at LSU

I like how they gave Bruce Arians zero credit for the 2012 Colts turnaround

that 2015 campaign by the Panthers feels so long ago 😔

Another thing that makes the '98 Falcons such a weird one year wonder is that they were 1-7 to start 1997 when something clicked and they won 6 of their last 8. Falcons did the same last year so I like that omen.

2016 Jags to 2017 Jags buttttttt then to the 2018 Jags bruh

Thank You!!! You make these dark times a little brighter! #NFLThrowback

Great Video

**2021 Bengals have entered the chat**

Miami Dolphins to me under Sparano in 08. The Wildcat may have had a short life, but that was a masterful job of coaching and still affects the league more then a decade later. We got 2 great RB's. We've got a strong zone scheme that keeps opposing defenses at bay just long enough to not figure out whats going on. More importantly, for the first time in years you had a team totally dedicated to forcing a defense to play 11 vs 11 instead of the traditional 11 vs 10. You look at any team that has consistently added RPO's or designed QB runs in the league nowadays, the league has had to adjust to playing that type of football. But back then, the thought of a Chad Pennington going for 5 YPC was absurd. The more you see the game develop in that way today, the more I found respect for what that man did with a team that ultimately had no direction.

2020 Bucs. 7-9 to the superbowl with the addition of Tom Brady.

The 2021 bengals went from 4-11-1, to 12-7 and are gonna go to the afc championship game Update: afc champions. 13-7

2017 rams

Dolphins of 2008 had the single best turnaround in history. Period...1-15 in 2007 to 11-5 and AFC East champs in 2008.

0:15 Bears 2000 -> 2001 (5 to 13) 0:54 Chargers 2003 -> 2004 (4 to 12) 1:52 Packers 2018 -> 2019 ( 6 to 14) 2:45 Broncos 1990 -> 1991 (5 to 13) 3:45 Ravens 2007 -> 2008 (5 to 13) 4:33 49ers 2010 -> 2011 (6 to 14) 5:13 Saints 2005 -> 2006 (3 to 11) 6:11 Bengals 1980 -> 1981 (6 to 14) 7:16 Baltimore Colts 1974 -> 1975 (2 -> 10) 8:06 Patriots 1975 -> 1976 (3 -> 11)

This is amazing for background boise while doin hw lol

I think the 16 to 17 rams could make this list. They went from 32nd in ppg, to 1st in points per game

Ladies and gents the bengals have added their name to the list

Everywhere Wade Phillips goes their D turns around... underrated DC in his entire career

Collinsworth was lit lmfao

For these kinds of situations I love the NFL. That a team has a maximum of 3-4 victories one year and the following year is in a position to compete at the top, is what makes this competition so incredible. I'm from Spain, Madrid, and here the only sport that matters is soccer, and the only two teams with real chances of winning the Spanish league every year are Real Madrid or FC Barcelona, which are the two clubs that have all the money with the salary capacity to sign the stars they want every year. This is a reality, which causes a maximum advantage over the rest of the teams that compete to the maximum to try to reach the top, but that finally never reach anything.

Please post more career highlights

I love how you guys connect with the fans in the comments!

As a Bengals fan it good to know that the 1981 and 1988 Bengals made it on the list 👍👍👍

Shotty should have a ring man. He was a good coach. i hope hes not forgotten over time.

I gotta say... Wade Phillips is a heck of a corrdinator

They spoke about the 2011 49ers but failed to mention that 3 of the 4 members of the secondary all got pro bowl nods as well: Carlos Rodgers in a career rebirth after being seen as a bust with Washington, Goldson had his best season, and Donate Whitner. While Brown did not make a pro-bowl, he went from a guy buried on the depth chart in 2010 to a starter and eventually got paid by the Raiders a couple years later as a true #1 for a while.

1976 Patriots put up over 200 yards rushing a game...damn

The greatest show on turf was so much fun to watch

Absolutely what a great video 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏✊✊✊ when Drew Brees went to NOLA , instantly what a turn around for the Saints

Gotta add the bengals to this list now

The Lions will make this list... Eventually.

Going to have to redo this list with the 2021-22 bengals.

Can you guys do single season turnarounds. Ex: 2016 Packers

The Browns of this year did a great turnaround

6:24 how stoned is cris lmao

Man that Vernon Davis catch still hurts to this day.

this video really shows how good Wade Phillips really is!

2018 Chicago Bears should've been on here. Going from 5-11 to 12-4, being NFC North Champions and a playoff appearance. 9th best offense and number one defense.

The 2017 Eagles are number 9. Well played 👍. #BDN

2016 falcons added a bunch of older talent like dashon goldson and Dwight Freeney and mixing it with younger talent like devonta freeman and Deion jones

You guys should upload highlights of the HD 16:9 broadcast version of Super Bowl XXXIV

Cris Collingsworth was baked! Looked Dazed & Confused

Do top 25 1 season downfalls ever Like the 2018 Steelers from 13-3 to just 8-7-1 and miss the playoffs

shout out to the shirtless guy in the stands of the freezer bowl lol

Cant forget about my 2011 49ers. 13-3 with a furious defense. 😊😊😊😊😊

This was interesting.....................

Wade Phillips appreciation video.

If only this list included the AFL, my team might be on it instead of the opposite. The 1963 Oakland Raiders were the only pro football team to improve its record by nine victories under the 14-game schedule. And they did it with 1st year hc/gm Al Davis

“We’ve got Trent Green down, we’ve got Trent Green down” and the rest is history

Last years bengals would be somewhere on this list

Add the 2020 Browns and Buccaneers to this list.

Wade Philip’s a genius

RUN THE TABLE 📣📣

I now understand why the 1991 Denver Broncos get referenced in the season 1 finale of South Park.

Me: comes to this list hoping to see this year's titans #1 on the list being the 1999 rams Bruh you really played me like that

There were so many teams left off this list: the 1989 cowboys, 2013 and 2017 saints, 2013 panthers, 2017 rams, 2000 ravens, 2011, 12, or even 13 Seahawks to name a few

Need an update one to include the 2023-24 Texans

I wonder if after Peyton's rookie season he just decided he knew more than the OC and told him how they were going to play

After watching my broncos face the colts, im taking refuge in watching these

Chris Collinsworth looked high out of his mind

I'm not saying I'm the greatest QB ever, but I was on the list twice. Looking for 3 this year.

21:25 holy shit! That’s the HD copy of Super Bowl 34!!!! Please upload the whole HD version of the game!!!!

Great list but surprised the 2017 Rams are not on this! Worst to first offense!

Haven’t watched the video but Green Bay better be on here

6:27 sounds like Gardner minshew

needs to add 2021 bengals

So the only four teams on this list to win the Super Bowl (Eagles, Patriots, 49ers, Rams) won their FIRST Super Bowl to cap off their spectacular turnaround. Cool!

Dang, I was hoping the 01 Patriots would be on here. From 5-11 to 11-5 and Superbowl champs against the Greatest Show on Turf. Oh, they're at 8, the time stamp just isn't working or there.

the 2001 bears were probably the most fun team to watch. Dont forget the hail mary to go along with Mike Browns tds

Do top 25 reversed now!!

Notes from this video: hire Wade Phillips as your DC

9:44 One more note, Luck passed for 4,374 pass yards in his rookie year If Justin Herbert wouldve played week 1 against the Bengals instead of Tyrod Taylor he would officialy break this record. He was only 36 pass yarss away

#2 should’ve ended with 16 wins including that Súper bowl. Ugh. It still hurts

Everyone forgot the 2003 panthers

Glad to see my 49ers up here! Bang Bang Niner Gang!

No 08 falcons

15:13 whats this song??

Almost first

1998 was the last time Atlanta had an amazing defense

No 2017 Rams?? Went from last in scoring offense the year before to FIRST, which I don't think has ever happened another time. Also went from 4-12 to 11-5 and won their division

What about the 2011 Denver Broncos, they went 3 and 13 in 2010,and then went 8 and 8 in 2011 and beat Pittsburgh and 2011 was Tebow's best year.

👍👍

Time to add the 2021 Bengals

13:27 And Atlanta goes to Miami

4:08 Good run game over 2000 yards from a player? That's their game plan this year

Lions 2022 - 2023 should be on this list if it’s ever revised

4:41 Narrator f'ked up: JIM Harbaugh is the younger brother, not JOHN.

i think the 2000 ravens should be on here. they’re fourth year in the league and their first time with a winning record results in their first super bowl win

you forgot the first year of Vince Lombardi coaching the Packers... re-edit immediately! ;)

2018 colts

I knew that Shanahan would make San Fransisco good, however, I think that they will have a hangover as they replaced Buckner with Kinlaw and Sanders with Aiyuk. Both Buckner and Sanders were key. They should've traded Kwon Alexander for a pick and replaced him with Patrick Queen.

Just wanna start a debate who would y’all rather have as a te Kettle or Kelsey?(however u spell it) I’m picking Kelsey both reliable af tho
