What do our South rivals need to do to make you worry?

I know we need a quality LT and another solid WR.  If we got both of those and a good SS, then I think we'll be a tough out for anyone.  And I honestly think we're going to be rightfully favored to win the South next year.

 

But I'm curious, which of our weaker rivals concerns you most?  And for that one, what would they need to do to make you really worry about our matchups next year?  Something like Atlanta getting a defense, but be reasonable about it.

I'm fairly confident we can get at least 5 division wins but do realize that we got beat by both the Aints and Falcons at home this year. Far from worried but I wouldn't sleep on any of them. Tampa sucks big time, but who knows maybe they draft Mariota and he becomes a complete stud...

Brees is washed up and eating up too much cap space so the Saints are finished. The Bucs don't have a QB. The Falcons are going into rebuilding mode. The team that can turn things around for next season is the Falcons imo. They could improve their o-line and defense in the off season.

For next season: Atlanta hires Quinn and he gets Gase as his OC. Still not that worried because I don't think they'll be able to fix that defense in Year 1. Rex would have been much more scary to me.

 

For the long-term: Bucs draft Winston. I think Winston is better than Mariota and will be a great QB in the league. I think Mariota will be medicore to a bust.

That's what I was worried about if they had gotten Rex..

Maybe they would be tough instead of just talking about it..

Now they are still a soft team that will wilt as we keep knocking the snot bubble out of them..

Bucs are a QB away from being a decent team

Atlanta is a wealth of defensive players away from being a threat

New Orleans has one more year to compete on the back of Brees. He has to play all pro though to make up for the lack of defensive talent and they are entering cap hell while we are exiting.

I really do not want to see New Orleans beef up their offensive line. When Brees has time to throw or can step up in the pocket, he's dangerous. A better o-line would also improve their running game making them less one dimensional as well. They're pretty strapped for cap space but I want them to keep those overpriced guards.

    • I just want to see a big guy with an NFL certified cannon arm suit up for the panthers again. To me, it will show that they are at least  trying to take the QB position in the direction it needs to go.   Will he throw picks? Yes. Probably a hell of a lot, but (for now) I’m strangely ok with that… for now. I at least need to see a dude that CAN make the throws with some semblance of accuracy.  This is the time to see what the QB whisperer is made of. The offensive talent is there. It’s certainly better than most rookie/journeymen QBs will ever step in to. If he can get a random dude playing at a JAG level, then I might be sold.  Andy could really surprise in the Buffalo game. He (for now) still has enough arm for Tet and XL to show what they’ve got, but we all know it’s only going to be good for 3-4 games, max. He has vet savvy, and that does account for a lot. He also has a full week of practice with all the snaps to prepare.  My best case scenario going forward: Andy plays the next 2 games nobly (winning one would be a huge bonus) giving White a chance to learn some of the playbook and develop chemistry with the players. Serviceable Andy turns in to old man Andy in game 3 and White takes the field after halftime.  A high ankle sprain (lol, sure it is) is an injury that can buy the team a LONG time for BY to ride the pine…. Maybe even IR. His peak trade value is now. Get what they can for this albatross. He’s now shown that he can be a mid level backup which does hold a significant value for the right team.  Not even in my wildest dreams do I see White being anything more than a JAG, but that’s ok. JAGs with a big arm make great bridge QBs that at least won’t have your play makers stagnating. Keeping BY under center is a 100% recipe for stagnating high ceiling (Tet/XL) dudes and/or not allowing them to take the next step in their development. Why even practice the good half of the playbook if the QB can’t make the throw? After a while, you’ve now got high ceiling guys who can only run a limited route tree. No thanks.
