you want to tell me that the caliber of qb doesn’t dictate how effective a wr is?I beg to differ. you want to tell me there is no difference between Mingo and Pickens?

Never said that.you want to tell me that the caliber of qb doesn’t dictate how effective a wr is?
Unless we resign him, it was not beautiful at all.Acquiring Pickens was a beautiful thing but its not enough. The majority of aquisitions won't move the needle based on what those players have shown in the NFL......the rookies are an unknown.
Yeah, the GM thing.I used to allow myself a degree of hope or excitement each year. No playoff success for decades now.
Then the Dak extension without any idea of how he'd move post injury... Then SF1 embarrassment, nothing changed ... Then SF2 embarrassment, nothing changed... Then GB happened, inexplicably nothing changed... Then it looked like we might be moving on from Dak, signed him to the highest deal ever for real reason... Then one the league's worst red zone teams last year, they try to resign the play caller, MM... Then they make the journeyman offensive coordinator who's never won anything or excited anyone the new HC...
I'm done with hope. I'm done expecting anything positive. I'll start buying back in .. a little.. when we win 2 playoff games in a row or hire an actual GM to actually be in the GM role, fully.
I'll watch it all and check this site 5-10 times a day, even in the dregs of the off-season because, well, I guess I'm addict/glutton for punishment, but I'm done believing until the team shows me or the FO shows me otherwise.
Why do you think we'll win the division?I think we win the division. I think we will go to the playoffs. As far as contending for a SB, not even close, its a shame, 52 of the 53 are good to go,, just one position is holding this team hostage.
I was putting us at 9-10 wins also until I perused the schedule. Going to be tough to get to 7.Im selling
-We are counting on reclamation projects, and late round picks at LB and HB. The areas could wind up liabilities.
-Our CB depth is razor thin, our Nickel CB could wind up being a guy that wouldn't make half the rosters in the NFL.
-Our run defense is very suspect, and could neutralize what could be a very good pass rush.
-OT's are very suspect
I think we will probably be a playoff contending team. 9-8 or 10-7. However, what I listed above I believe will make it very difficult to beat good teams, and limit our ceiling
To be honest, given parity, I dont put much into the schedule anymore. Its not what it was 15 years ago, and a hard schedule could wind up looking soft midseason.I was putting us at 9-10 wins also until I perused the schedule. Going to be tough to get to 7.
Let's look at it logically"To be honest, given parity, I dont put much into the schedule anymore. Its not what it was 15 years ago, and a hard schedule could wind up looking soft midseason.
I think we are a better team than 2 years ago. This team won 12 games for 3 years before last year, with a bad offseason and then QB1 being hurt. I think we can win at least 12 games this year. The Eagles, going on their 3rd OC in as many years. They lost some good players to FA. And history tell us that the SB champ has a hard time making the playoffs the next year and then there is Barkley, while he did amazing, he had almost 400 touches last year, and again history tells us that backs typically fall off after that type of year.Why do you think we'll win the division?
I already mentioned how. Offense has more weapons too.How have we improved?
Okay....that's fine. On Paper. Whatever improvements we SEEM to have made...have to be executed ON FIELD.I already mentioned how. Offense has more weapons too.

Not enough bad teams on it this year. That’s why Pickens is here. Two bad seasons in a row affects Jerry’s celebrity status.I was putting us at 9-10 wins also until I perused the schedule. Going to be tough to get to 7.
What happened 2 years ago is irrelevant to what happens this year. I am not so sure this offense is better. We added RBs but none stand out. The OTs are a big question mark. TEs dont look so good. Qb is two years older coming off injury. WRs are better.I think we are a better team than 2 years ago.

Washington, I think they played above their talent level last year and won't be able to do it again. How will Daniels adjust to the NFL in his 2nd year, when every DC now knows what he likes to do and how to stop him from doing it.
I think we will be in the mix for sure and I like our chances. Now once we get to the playoffs, all bets are off and we are a 1 and done team.
