Is this really Super Bowl team?

Realistically?  I mean sure a lot of good signs but this is not a Super Bowl team.  Otherwise, this is fan dreaming right?  IMO...way too many flaws here.  Coaching all the way down.  Just being realistic here.

Personally...before the season I never considered us a serious player to win it.  Just not there yet.

Aren’t we similar to Green Bay?  We “could” because of our QB and “might” put it all together and make a run but that isn’t realistic.  These teams doing something new, different that gives them a dominant edge win it.  And yes, Belichicks team is always in the mix with that QB and he is constantly changing.

This team top to bottom is good...but not Super Bowl level.

Personally I am going to enjoy the season...relax knowing we are flawed but knowing our owner will get us straight eventually.  It will be a while but keep pounding.

In a year I expect this team to look amazingly different.

I like your optimism and I want to believe we will get right eventually but we've already used up a lot of cam and Luke already. How much longer do they have?

I think y’all could be if y’all could somehow manufacture a pass rush. The pass rush (or lack there of) last night was just pitiful and will continue to hamstring the back 7 if nothing is done about it. I know y’all secondary has its own problems (like ours), but getting at least a little pressure on opposing QB’s will mask those deficiencies in most situations.

5 years at least. at that time luke will be 32 and Cam 34. More worried about luke than cam though, I think Cam will be with us for at least another 7 years. Ideally we extend him for 5 years after the 2019 season.

I am not nearly as pessimistic as many are here. 

We are a playoff team and if we can get things going defensively we could make it.

That game the other night was terrible.  It was also a short week and the Steelers did a better job of preparing for the short week than we did.  

In the playoffs you have, at minimum, the regular week to prepare.  In the SB you have 2 weeks.  I think our next game defensively will truly tell the tale.  If defensively we perform well.  Thursday night was not us, if we get hammered again.  We will be one and done.

I do think our #1 objective in the off season is Pass Rush.

we're somewhere in the 6-10 range of best teams i think.  we could beat anyone, but we could also lose to anyone.  i do think the packers are a good comparison.   we really needed to do something when cam was on his rookie deal.  i don't think we're coached well enough to win now that he's off it.  we're not going to build a dynasty with this staff. they're not capable.

      Down With The Devils: Series Wrap-up

      By Stumpy · Posted

      Well bois, we gave the Devils their due! Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery... The jersey boys have been trying to jack our steeze for a few years now. They've followed our blueprints and studied our tape. Every offseason, they pounce on our sloppy seconds in a Newark minute. Quick with the puck, ferocious on the forecheck and stifling team defense. Down to the colors, this is this closest we'll come to having to play ourselves in Ole Stanley's Hockey Hoedown. As the postseason began, Rod stood flexing in the gym mirror and saw this guy staring back from the void... (Shutters) When beating us at our game didn't work, Timo and the Tri-State Trash tried to tango instead. Outside of a bitchass cheapshot on Freddie, that poo didn't work either. Their goon squad was getting wrecked by our bantam weights. As much as we all wanted to see Svechy or Staal Bunyan literally break someone in half after the Great Dane went down, they didnt need to. Our munchkins were monsters! Jarvis obliterating giants at the blue line, Logan laying the Stank on dudes twice his size and Blakers blasting Timo into next season. It was beautiful to see! (Side note: Does JBlo wear lead weights under his pads? 170lbs shouldn't be able to hit that hard!) We closed it out in 5, for the gentleman's sweep. Only team in the league to win a series in each of the past 7(?) seasons! And, this was supposed to be a rebuilding year... Onto the awards: Key To The Series : 6 for 19 - .316% IT FINALLY WORKED!!! MVP : 16/180 g/s - .911 save% - 2.53 gaa Seriously, without this dude, we would've won in 3! (Trust me bro) 3rd Star : 6/94 g/s - .936 save % - 1.59 gaa The Great Dane   2nd Star : 3 g - 5 a - +1 - 20:38 toi/g - 18 hits - 3 bs - 58.1% fo 3 PP goals and the 2OT series winning goal! WOOAAAHHH NELLY!!!!   And, your 1st Star of the series : 5 g - 1 a - +3 - 16:48 toi/g - 16 hits - 1 bs - 1 tk - 50% fo Zero, I repeat, zero penalty minutes for the series! MISSSTAAAHHH SVEEECHNIKOOOV!!!!!! Onto The Next: Now, we wait for the Habs to make it a nasty 7 game slog, while we recuperate. And, hopefully, get Nikishin, and some of the other black aces some real peactice time. We are gonna need those guys at some point. Because, if you think the Devils were dirty, hoooo boy, wait till you see what's next...
