NFC South: Last Place NFL Division
Description
The NFC South, home to the Carolina Panthers, Atlanta Falcons, New Orleans Saints, and Tampa Bay Buccaneers, has been ranked last in the NFL for the 2026 season. The division has not had a winning team since 2022, with the Buccaneers being the only team to reach double-digit wins in 2024. The Panthers and Falcons have not had a winning season since 2017, while the Saints have struggled with a combined 30-38 record in 2025. Sports Illustrateds Gilberto Manzano ranked the division eighth after free agency, noting the Buccaneers talent but their tendency to match weak competition. The Panthers new coach, Dave Canales, inherits Bryce Young, while the Falcons hopes rest on Michael Penix Jr. and Tua Tagovailoa. The Saints continue to struggle without significant moves. The division has not had all three teams in the playoffs since 2017, leaving fans and analysts to wonder if the South can finally rise from the basement this year.
