lol it is like some people here are ignoring all that lol.So then you are predicting another year of mass injuries?
this team was 6-10 with Dalton at the helm and a horrible defense with mass injuries everywhere.
You think adding the following players to the team will amount to only 2 more wins?
Dak, Martin, Smith, Collins, Jarwin, Kazee, Joseph, Neal, Cox, Parsons, Urban, Osa.
Then you have the organic development of: Diggs, Lamb, Gallimore and Gregory with a full offseason and TC.
And to top it off we have a better DC and the team has an entire offseason of OTA's, TC, and 4 preseason games.
ALL those advantages and talent added or coming back and you come up with 2 WINS increase?
Some of you guys really are pessimistic.
The previous 3 seasons were 8-8, 10-6 and 9-7. And I do expect some injuries.
We have the potential of winning 10 or more games but much has to go right including no major injuries on offense and a defense much improved.
It would be very tough for me to wager on that until I see it unfold and sustain which is what I was responding to. And smart wagering is based on prior history and current trends not futures.
And I think last year if Dak stays healthy we go at least 8-8 and win the division . With our defense and schedule tough to have won more. And probably one and out in playoffs.
And I think with 9 wins we can win division this year. Probably only division we could win. I consider this realistic not negative. While I always retain hope for more. And if we begin showing we have more my position could change.
an advantage to the deep teams in the league.12-5. NFC East Champs.
Edit.....I CANNOT get used to that 17th game!
