The 2009 NFL season has been more about disparity than parity. This isn't because the top of the league is so good (really, is there any truly scary team out there?), but because the dregs of the league are so bad. This year's NFL isn't top-heavy, it's bottom-heavy. If it were a celebrity it'd be more Kim Kardashian than Christina Hendricks.
But of all the terrible teams, which is the worst? Shutdown Corner takes a look at the resumes of the "contenders" and whittles the list down to the most rotten squad in the NFL.
26. Oakland Raiders (2-6, -123 point differential): If we were making an All-Awful team, JaMarcus Russell(notes) would be the easy choice for starting quarterback (at least Derek Anderson(notes) once was good). But, despite the multiple blowout losses (the New York teams beat Oakland by a combined score of 82-7), the Raiders at least have a good win on their resume (vs. Philadelphia), which is more than any of these other teams can say.
27. Washington Redskins (2-5, -27 point differential): The only two wins to the Redskins credit have come against teams ranked lower on this list. And no other squad, with the exception of our "winner", has appeared to have thrown in the towel as quickly as the 'Skins.
