8-8. But a prettier 8-8 than last season. I feel like we are gonna look better than expected but the youth and inexperience might hurt us. But I think this season will give us hope for the future.

I can easily see this happening with the D losing a step but the O picking up the slack. Definitely a transition year one way or another.

5-11...it will be a long season. o-line is below average and D will not be able to hold offences to less then 14 points per game.

I agree.

Especially when a guy who never played football in his life made the team. lol

I would definitely be reconsidering life.

8-8, and sadly, it will be an ugly 8-8. The back-6 games are very winnable. The first 10... not so much.

The team will probably hit 2-5, and the media will have written them off as irrelevant. Then they'll go on a mini-run during the back-6 games, and it won't matter.

Unless you can find me a right tackle tomorrow to start for this team, I don't see them winning more than 8 games. Sorry fellas.

I have no f-ing idea what I am talking about.


But I sense a really good and building vibe in the organisation. We're going to surprise. 9-7 this year and we're going to have rivals talking about us.

Regardless of total wins, I want to beat seattle, zona and lambs

Well...set the expectations low so your not disappointed come December. But I also have the same feeling that the youth and inexperience will hurt us in some games. I also feel that Kaep, although loaded with physical talent, just isn't going to make that leep that he' supposed to. I think we're still going to see the same tendencies.

Bowman will get Defensive MVP this season AND comeback player of the year. Book it.

Hyde will be top three in rushing yards.

AGREEEEE

10-6 is very realistic IMO

We have players with upsides everywhere, and if they can contribute and develop into solid contributors ,we could win another game or two , but I'm excited that we have so much young talent that could possibly develop into solid if not elite talent

RB: Hyde - Davis - Hayne
WR: Ellington -Patton-White
TE: McDonald - Bell
OL- Martin -Thomas -Brown
DL- Armstead- Dial - Carradine -Purcell
LB- Lynch - Harold - Skov
DB- Ward- Tartt - McCray -Johnson- Acker -Reaser

now that's a lot of potential to combine with the proven veterans on the roster, if our roster was filled with pricey veteran free agents with little or no upside left, I wouldn't be so optimistic , but we have young hungry players that could potentially grow into impact contributors on the field , that alone is reason enough for me to get excited about our chances , grooming our homegrown talent will eventually pay dividends ... ....I'm glad we didn't overpay for any free agents and chose to build our team through the draft , it appears fair weather fans don't see this and continually bash our team for failing to acquire any big names and have chosen to bash our team and doom us before we even get out of the starting gate ....we're going to be solid and could surprise a lot of people ...Monday cant get here fast enough

Fek all your doubters, We are gonna WIN the Super Bowl.

10-6

If ur basing it all on "potential" then u might be creating false hope for yourself, bcz every team has a lot of "potential", and can surprise.

4-12....accept it now and spare yourself the stress and heartbreak.

AGREEEEE

agree 100 per cent on your first 2 bullet points.
i will hedge a bit on bullet point number 3 cuz
1. have not seen enough of a body of work from him
2 this is more important than 2.. i think we will share the duties with he, reggie and davis and have a very very nice balanced attack on the ground
