Let's see who wants to out themselves with three things they predicted that was right and wrong about the season.
Right:
1. Tyler Smith will be a stud in the making. Having played D1 college ball and coached junior college football, I'd like to think that I can see potential in players. I said from Day One that Tyler Smith will be the LT of the future and that the staff should just let him play the year at that position. We hit big time with this pick. I argued with a number of posters who thought he should be moved to RT or guard, or even sit and learn. Tyler is the real deal.
2. Either Dak or Moore would be gone at season's end. Well, bye bye Moore.
3. Connor Williams is a decent player misused by our coaching staff. While he's not a world beater, he proved he is more than just a JAG with his season in Miami.
Wrong:
1. NFCE order of finish. I picked Dallas--Philly--Commodes--NYG. I missed every part of the order.
2. Jalen Hurts will never be a good passer. As a very vocal member of the Jalen Hurts sucks brigade, I was dead wrong. No need to expand.
3. The overall quality of our defense might mask the DT weakness. Against bad teams it did sometimes; against good teams, we were exposed.
Good thread!
Right:
1. Predicted 12 wins or more.
2. Said our OL would be better than last year.
3. Said Steele Was better than Collins. Also said Collins was trash last year and it proved to be the case this year. No one was saying that.
4. Said wasn't sold on Tolbert's initial impact. Eventually may be a player but I thought the likelyhood he made an impact from South Alabama was minimal.
5. Said Ferguson would be a player. Said Sam Williams was best DE in draft and he was at times. Didn't get the burn he should have imo.
6. Said Jordan Davis was nothing special. Said he wasn't this unstoppable force everyone tried to make him out to be....yup.
7. Said late last year and in the beginning of the offseason on this board and to my 2 best buds (who are Eagles fans) that Jalen Hurts could win a super bowl if you build the defense and surround him with talent, ala Russ Wilson. No one on this board believed that and they didn't believe it either.
8. Said our rotation at DE would be better than Randy Gregory...true.
9. Been saying for years that Zeke is washed....yup.
10. Been saying for years Kellen Moore needs to go....yup.
Wrong:
1. Said that Dak would have a better season (in 5 key stats) than Mahomes. Clearly was wrong. Said it because i believed Dak wouldn't be as affected without Amari (mostly right, except for the TOs resulting from throwing those balls to inferior players that would have went to him), as Mahomes would be missing Hill. Mahomes improved as a qb, not relying on his and his top talent nearly as much.
2. I Thought Dallas would win the division, but clearly was wrong.
3. Thought AJ Brown wouldn't be nearly as impactful as he was with the Eagles. He was way better than I thought.
4. I Thought Dlaw was a washed-up player, he played really well this year.
