The NFCS ...2015 and beyond.

Nit really on same topic as OP, but the NFCS will look a lot better next year when we get to play the AFC South and NFC East (assuming Washington and NY stay bad)

 

On paper, right now, about as "easy" as it gets in this league, with the two toughest teams, IND and HOU, at home.  Away at JAX and TEN.  PHI WAS at home, @DAL @NYG.  If we do win the division then we'd likely go to ARI while getting GB here.

I'm most worried about the Bucs, if they can pull it together. They have some pieces on defenses with McCoy, Verner, and David. Also offensively, Evans, Jackson, Martn, and ASJ. If they can add a QB, they will improve greatly, quickly. IMO.

We have been waiting for the Bucs to be a "breakout team" for years. This post or something like it comes up every offseason.

I think Atlanta could figure it out and be really good. If they build their line and stumble across a running back their offense could be great. Their defense is bad, but it isn't out of the realm of possibility that it could be decent with some help at dline and lb via free agency or the draft.

Trufant seems to be a legitimate piece in the secondary.

    • They oughta be more pissed about Coen lol bowles is old school with an aging defense and has lost two OCs  …. The fan base always wants the shiny toy.  
    • Please don't tell me you just averaged the QB ratings of all of Shough's starts to declare his QB rating as better 😂 I hope you don't actually believe that's how it works.  Otherwise please show your math on Shough's QB rating as a starter. Thanks for including Shough's 2.6 more Rushing YPG in this comparison, really doesn't feel at all like you're desperately grasping for as many straws as you can here. The truth is, it takes a statistical bottom-tier starting QB like Bryce Young to make Shough look simply OK by comparison.  And that bottom-tier starting QB still, by your own admission, puts up more points for his offense than Shough.  You're framing this as damning for Bryce, but in reality the fact that him and Bryce are so neck-and-neck is shining Shough in a very poor light. Yes Shough is a rookie and Young is a 3rd year starter, which is why I circle back to my position of Shough having a "pretty solid, encouraging rookie season" whereas you're fanboying over him.  Never mind that Shough is 2 years older than Bryce though.  Normally yes a QB's experience in the league is invaluable...but Bryce is kind of a unique situation considering the biggest complaint with him is he is too physically limited to succeed in the league.  Do we think a QB can overcome severe physical limitations simply with experience?  Also I remember wayyyy back (/s) when we cared so much about DJ Johnson being an older rookie and our standard for them being that they're more NFL-ready and able to contribute sooner rather than later.  But now all of a sudden Shough is just a poor little 26-year-old rookie on an awful team.  Seriously...the way you frame everything around Shough is straight out of a fanfic.  Constantly referencing with tears in your eyes how he's succeeding against all odds on such an awful team.  Meanwhile the Saints' D is 14th in PPG and their offense (led by Shough) is 29th in PPG.  Telling me how the Saints managed a win on Shough's shoulders against the Jets last week who put up...*checks notes*...6 points against the Saints' D.  Yes god bless the savior Shough who willed his team to victory against those juggernauts led by Brady Cook.  Never mind how Taysom Hill threw as many touchdowns in 1 passing attempt as Shough did in 49 passing attempts.  Yikes.
    • Who's gonna drop the gloves? I can't think of a single player on this team that can fight. Period. Much less get the best of an opposing player. Please.
