Many passers have used their second seasons to display signs of greatness, with a few of those coming over the past few seasons. Here are the best sophomore QB efforts of the Super Bowl era.
A point of emphasis caused by a hit on Aaron Rodgers last season is benefiting quarterbacks league-wide. But Rodgers himself, interestingly, hasn’t been able to benefit much from the roughing-the-passer tweak.
Cincinnati Bengals Given little respect coming into the season, Cincinnati’s suddenly a player in an AFC North that may no longer have a home-field advantage contender like it did in 2017.
Boxing continues to churn out quality rivalries, with rematches and rubber matches (and sometimes fourth meetings) frequently occurring during its modern era.
Boxing is not on the same popularity plane as it was during past generations, but this era has produced plenty of quality boxers -- some who stack up well all time -- across most weight divisions.
Some franchises' best efforts have not led to victory parades or even Super Bowl berths. Because of untimely injuries, unfortunate circumstances, or myriad other reasons, many teams' plans throughout NFL history have not produced the desired result.
We now have 56 Super Bowl champions. Here is how the previous Super Bowl winners' follow-up teams stack up historically.

An NFC top tier that’s maybe three times as deep as the AFC’s looks almost certain to exclude quality teams from the playoffs this season. Even the NFC teams that book wild card spots will, barring major injuries, be threats to win Super Bowl LIII.
No division looks harder to decipher than the AFC West. Each franchise appears set to deploy a higher-variance operation compared to last season. The two-time reigning champion Chiefs ditched their high-floor quarterback for a talented wild card, but Patrick Mahomes likely won’t be a sure thing in 2018.
