​When it comes to the NFL there is pressure everywhere, and pressure of every kind.Teams, players, coaches, and everyone in between are feeling it in the name of one goal or another. Different groups have different goals and therefore different expectations, and we can translate this to point out that they all experience different points of pressure as well.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementToday we will be focusing on teams that are under different types of pressure ahead of 2026.RJ: It has been a long time since the Tennessee Titans were relevant.When you consider that they currently have a dynamic duo to get off of the ground in Cam Ward and Carnell Tate, I think you have to have some legitimate expectations for them in 2026. Legitimate in this sense in my mind simply means being competitive and hanging around them rim as this rebuild clearly has multiple steps to it.Simply put, the Titans cannot be anywhere close to the number one overall pick in 2027. That would be a failure of galactic proportions in my mind.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementMichael: The Raiders have had pressure to win every single year for as long as I can remember. They’ve been so bad for so long that they’ve seen more than their fair share of tip-top draft picks come and go without making anywhere near the impact they wish they would have and every time it looks like they may be able to turn a corner, they’re reminded that they’re still at the bottom of the AFC West more often than not.Entering this season, they’ve got a brand new quarterback they took at No. 1 overall and a new head coach who just won a Super Bowl calling offensive plays for the Seahawks. It’s not Tom Brady’s first year in his role with the team, either. Whatever plan they’ve got in their heads should be on and popping, but they’ve got one of the bigger tasks in all of football to start winning immediately.The other three teams in the division are either coming off a playoff appearance or they’re the Chiefs and Patrick Mahomes. Still, time waits for no one and the Raiders need to show life this season because the unending purgatory they’ve sat in for the better part of the past decade cannot continue with how many chips they’re seemingly pushing up right now.Michael: I think it’s easy to pick a team that hasn’t made the playoffs in some time and their coaching staff may be running out of time to deliver on some early promises, but I would actually point at a trio of teams in the Chiefs, Ravens, and Lions. These are a group of perennial powerhouses most years but each of them had some out-of-left-field issues last season that really knocked them off their usual game and ultimately kept them out of the postseason.AdvertisementAdvertisementAdvertisementI mean, you’d call someone an absolute lunatic if they predicted before the 2025 season that all three of those teams would miss the postseason. That’s why I believe all three of them will be under the most pressu
