A Look at the NFL's Three Remaining Winless Teams
Through five weeks of the 2026 season, three AFC teams are still without a win. The piece ranks those 0-5 clubs, with Miami placed third and the Los Angeles Chargers described as the best of the winless group. It also suggests Miami could land a top quarterback prospect in the 2027 NFL Draft if its struggles continue.
The piece examines the three AFC clubs still without a win after five weeks of the 2026 season. A Week 5 meeting between two previously winless AFC teams reduced that group, and the article ranks Miami third while calling the Los Angeles Chargers the best of the remaining 0-5 teams.
It notes that an 0-5 start would likely force a team to finish 10-2 over its final 12 games to have any playoff chance. Miami has played hard and its rookies show early promise, but the club has been abysmal; continued struggles could bring a top-two 2027 draft pick and a leading quarterback prospect.
A prolonged winless stretch could affect Miami's players, coaches, and fans, shaping morale and local game-day spending. It may also influence how media and rival supporters view the franchise, while a high 2027 draft pick could renew hope and shift attention toward rebuilding. For the Chargers, being labeled the best winless team may soften perceptions, but continued losses could still affect fan engagement and team confidence.
