We have reached the halfway mark of the 2024 NFL regular season. Nine weeks ago, we were staring at a blank slate of 272 games, wondering how they would all unfold. Nine weeks from now, we will be looking at a fully formed playoff bracket.
We’ve seen two coaches fired, 16 trades and a Hail Mary. The Kansas City Chiefs are undefeated, Kirk Cousins and Jayden Daniels are in first place, and multiple second-year quarterbacks have been benched. Derrick Henry is over 1,000 yards, Saquon Barkley hurdled a guy backward and players from Aidan Hutchinson to Tua Tagovailoa to Micah Parsons have been forced off the field.
Before we find out what the back nine of the regular season has in store for us, here’s an MMQB staff midseason roundtable. Each of our writers and editors will share a first-half surprise, an intriguing second-half story line and an updated (or not) Super Bowl prediction.
Here’s who we have participating below:
