They don't have the talent for a run - they might sneak in the playoffs, but they aren't going anywhere.
Maybe. Delhomme has done well in the playoffs.
DeAngelo should be ready to take the load this year and Foster provides an big play threat as a backup RB. Smith obviously is a very good WR. And I believe Jarrett will be a nice option for them as a #2/#3 WR.
They need to get better OL play though.
Defensively, it starts with Peppers (obviously). If Jenkins is healthy, they have a solid interior DL. Rucker/Johnson can plattoon at the other DE spot. Morgan needs to stay healthy, add in Beason, and they'd have a solid CB core. Marshall looked pretty solid last year for a rookie CB and I think he'll be a good player opposite Lucas. Gamble as a nickle is probably better suited for the Panthers. They have question marks at S (they just traded for Chris Harris).
I am not predicting a Super Bowl run for them or anything. But given how Delhomme does play in the playoffs, and some of their talent, I could see them winning a game in the playoffs.
Health is the issue. Guys like Morgan, Lucas, Jenkins have to be healthy though. But I could see it.
