Technically, the post-draft win projections have free agency, the draft, coaching changes, and anything else that happened since the end of the previous season priced in.

The NFL announced Tuesday at its Spring League Meeting in Orlando that Nashville will host Super Bowl LXIV in 2030 at the new Nissan Stadium, marking the first time the city has ever hosted the league's championship game. The announcement comes after a review by the NFL's Fan Engagement & Major Events Committee and a vote by full ownership. Commissioner Roger Goodell pointed to Nashville's track record with major events, specifically the 2019 NFL Draft, which drew 600,000 fans and generated $224 million in economic impact in a then-record-setting weekend, as a blueprint for what the city can deliver on the sport's biggest stage.
As always, the teams have given us a wide variety of visual experiences to enjoy.

What good timing, considering the movie is coming out later this year.
