NFL power rankings for 2022, where do the Miami Dolphins land?
By Juan Vasquez
17. Minnesota Vikings:
I’ve always liked the offensive pieces the Vikings had, and with Justin Jefferson on board, I thought this team would be much better than what it showed recently. New Head Coach, New GM, and I honestly like the way the Vikings are revamping.
However Kirk Cousins is inconsistent and I’ve seen injuries decimate the Vikings before, nevertheless, I expect them to be much better this year and give the Packers a run for their money.
16. San Francisco 49ers:
Another team that got players and especially coaches poached was the 49ers, with Deebo Samuel’s drama and questions about Trey Lance you would think they would be lower. But I’m trusting Mike Shanahan, his run schemes, and play calling to cover up Lance’s weaknesses if he disappoints.
Plus I think the Deebo Samuel situation has cooled down, and they’ll figure it out, besides injury this team takes a hit from contender to dark horse. But the upside is still there.
15. Tennessee Titans
The Titans lost their playmaker, security blanket, and X factor with the AJ Brown trade, now the Titans have Treylon Burks who has a nice blueprint to grow but struggles with Asthma. The hot weather is already affecting Burks in Nashville during the summer, and having any limitations will make it very difficult to fill in for AJ Brown.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the departure of AJ Brown starts to expose some of Ryan Tannehill’s weaknesses glaringly.
