[QUOTE="Thirteen Below, post: 1035993, member: 18006"] I feel a little more optimistic than that. I expect at least some improvement over last season, so I'll be surprised if they win [I]fewer [/I]than 10 and think 11 is a realistic possibility. And while I don't actually expect a Super Bowl appearance, I don't think it's an unreasonable hope, and I believe a NFCCG against the Niners is very possible. I'm actually going to put some money on that, in fact. I think they're one of the 4 teams most likely to make it, which would put the odds at 50-50. I'm not worried about the defense. Of course it may take a while for them to gel in the new scheme, but even so, how much worse can they be than last year? And even if they do get off to a slow start, the key is how well they're playing by December, and I think they'll be clicking. I expect at least some improvement from van Ness and Wooden. I think Edge is going to have a very good rookie season, and if Stokes and Alexander can stay healthy, Valentine has improved as much as Lafleur says he has, and just half the DBs we drafted get off to a goood start, I think we'll do very well. And the offense? They were one of the top offenses in the NFL last year, and I expect them to improve significantly. For the first time in years, this team (aside from the kicker) has no holes - and only a couuple of spots where we may be thin. This seems to be the most complete roster I can remember seeing in many years, and by playoff time, I think they'll be playing well enough to go deep. Maybe not all the way, but I wouldn't be shocked. [/QUOTE]
